I got sick of always making folders with the date and description for me to download my pictures into, and i don't like using software because it takes to long, so i wrote a program to do it for me. I thought since i did that i might aswell share it with anyone here who could also use it.
What it does is, asks you for a description and then makes a file folder called yyyy_mm_dd - description in the folder you run the program from. You can hit tab and put in a different directory if you would like, but i would suggest just sticking it in your my pictures folder or where ever you keep your pictures and then just running it from there.
Also if you have problems with it let me know. I might, with my limited programming, be able to fix it up.
"A piece of toast with butter always lands butter side down, and a cat always lands on its feet. What happens if a piece of toast is tied butter side down to the back of a cat? Does it perpetually hover above the ground in indecision when dropped?"
I was thinking it would be good if i could set it up so you can save locations of differnet files. I might do that if alot of people think they would like to use it. It would invole me learning alittle more about file saving and stuff, and since it works well for what im doing i didn't bother. IM gald someone else will be able to use it.

I don't know if anyone is actually still using this or not, but i changed where i was saving my pictures so i did a little bit of work to this program. It now allows you to specify the directory that you make the folder in and is actually able to save that for the next time you use it. Other than that it is still the same. (makes a folder with the date and description you enter).
So i thought i would offer it out again now that it is a little more useful for other people. When you first start it, it is going to ask for a new directory. That should look something like C:\Documents and Settings\User\My Documents. It needs to be a directory that already exists, as i don't think it is capable of making its own right now.
