Hello virgin comunity (wich I'm proud to belong to), I'm reorganizing my /hr/ folder and thought of asking you some advice.
Wich categories do you use ?
I'm thinking of these main folders:

/a/
/g/
/k/
/o/
/an/
/mu/
/tv/
General /hr/

I guess these will work (with subfolders as needed)
Tell me if there is anyone missing please

Protip: Needs more main directory classification.

I could go through and make more subdirs (as can be seen the ones not showing images have subdirs), but I see no need atm.

A quick scan of my pictures folder indicates that I've downloaded 3,162 files in 137 folders since the last time I archived them. (Lots more in the archive.) I generally use the genre and source for most of my folders, which works pretty well for me. I just have to remember where something would have come from to find it. I don't really bother with the board tags, though some of them are implied by the folder name anyway. Every once in a while I spawn off a new subfolder. Usually, I wait until I have a few pictures from a given source clutting up my miscellaneous folder and then group them all in a subdirectory.

So, for me it works better to view it as more of an ongoing process. I try to group things by their source or a common feature until I have enough that they need subfolders. But organization is more about you. You want to find a way to group the files so that you can easily find them. Using subfolders for more specific concepts generally works well as you get more and more pictures. But if you've only got less than a hundred or so pictures, it can work just as well to toss them all in one folder and turn thumbnails on. It also works well to try to group your subdirectories when you start to get a lot of those. Generally, I find it easier to find things if I don't have to search through a long list of folders instead of a denser hierarchy with a few options at each layer. (I need to add another layer or two myself.)

The best way to go at first is to just try an arrangement that you think will make it easier on you, based on the files you have and how you use them. If it doesn't work out, try to think of what you liked and didn't like about the arrangement and modify or rework as needed.

Isn't there a offline Danbooru-style system out on the web?

I used PhotoMesa3.. which happens to allow pictures to be annotate.

Annotate is a good tagging system since you can lable each pic with several annotation and search based on those too
