Due to issues elsewhere, I am creating a "multi-page comics" folder in my root gallery and moving all folders containing such into it. Any such comics that did not previously have folders will have them made. This should make it easier to track down comics you remember me doing.

Also, I am considering making species and/or setting folders and moving all appropriate art into them. This is what I do in my stories section here and on FA, and it makes it easier to look up stuff about a particular character of mine you like.

Aggregating those comics is definitely quite a helpful step. As far as other categories go, I'm not always sure creating thematic subfolders is as effective when those groupings are better served by tag searches. Others may feel differently though!

I am debating adding character name tags to pics, something I've previously avoided. This would let me not use character folders, assuming I don't find other peoples' characters with the same names.

It is not a big deal to have the same tag/name. Anyone can just go to your user page and filter work based on just you. So any tags only return your work.

You can also give family names to your characters. It's a fun way to hint at their origin or occupation too.
