I have a cdprep folder for storing files I am planning to burn to CDR. My CD burner is on a network computer I don't use much so I don't always have access to it to write using the "like a floppy" mode. So I save up files till I have a full CDR's worth of files which is usually once a month or more at the rate I render and download. (I have a cable modem, it has made me a downloadaholic) I keep subfolders for misc graphics (anything I create or download in tif, psp, psd, jpg, or gif sorted into more folders) poser stuff (downloads and my pz3 files), bryce stuff (downloads and br4 files), 3d models (sorted into subfolders by type), and so on. When I download a zip file of poser stuff, I right click and because Winzip is installed, I have the option to extract to a folder by the same name as the zip file so I do so. I save the thumbnail image of the object when I download it and drop it in the newly created folder too. Then I move that folder to the "cdprepposer stuff" folder after I copy the contents to the correct folders in my Poser4 folder (the program itself) on another drive. Stuff I buy goes to the root of the CDR or to a folder labeled Zygote if I buy several items during the period of time between CDR burns. I have many CDRs with a "poser stuff" folder on them. Each burned CDR is treated to a simple DOS directory listing command after all the files have been burned and binary compared for assurance the files are intact and accurately copied before I delete them from the hard drive. The command I use is dir e: /s/a/ogn/l >> c:cds020.txt and I get a nice listing of what is on the CD that way, stored in a text file. You can search inside all the text files in the CDS folder with Windows built in find function for the file you want. I label my CDRs by number, I use names on the CDRWs. ack, it's said my message was too long... continued...
