What about YYYY/MM/DD?
Use hyphens instead of slashes and we're on the same page.
Even better, easier sorting.
Yeah, that's the one you use for filenames. Backup images and the likes.
Works , but MMDDYY ugh
Why would you put the day in a secondary sub-folder?
Now that I think of it, this may actually be a pretty nice system to store files hierarchically by date.
It's definitely something you can do when the year is in the most-significant-digits place in the order and the day-of-the-month is in the least-significant place.
Nobody puts Baby in a tertiary folder!
