Not at all, I decided to treat it with the respect it deserved.

Really? Then explain it. Go for it.

Because I don't think you did get it at all. If you did, you might have actually gotten the point instead of insisting on carrying on your pointless tirade and flaming insultfest to every merchant who likes a little organisation with no basis or foundation to your argument when the reason one would want to sort and seperate and distinguish is obvious to anyone with half a brain.

TG: I use the Sort By Type thing all the time. Actually, all I have in the Sort By list is Name, Size, Type and Date Modified. In details view there are more options for columns, but Extension isn't one of them. This is in Win XP Pro. How do you do a sort by extension?

By preference, I actually default my folders to sort by Type, use Tiles, and Show In Groups, and keep 'Folders' on in the side. This keeps my CR2s seperate from the RSRs and PNGs, for instance, so when I want to select and edit several of them at once I don't have to bounce around the explorer window to get them all, usually. The sorting options are one of the things I actually wish the Macintosh finder did (along with copy-merging directories like all other operating systems do, instead of having to manually open a terminal and do a cp -r -i newfolder oldfolder which is what I end up doing to install Poser content on a Mac without wiping out my whole runtime which is what happens if you try it the Windows way).

I'm the asshole. You wanna be a shit? You gotta go through ME.
