Hay, how do you guys organize your wallpapers? I hit 2000 recently.
I've tried category, date, color-- it gets all complicated and I'm indecisive, so I pretty much just keep them in one folder.

Ditto. Though I don't have that many wallpapers, I switched computers and most are on my old computer.

I try to organise by series, but I also have folders for the numerous ero=game wallpapers I like but can't identify, and for original/themed walls (christmas, Bloody etc).

I use wallpaper changer, and it's .wpl files are simply a list of file paths. Using Irfanview and the XP search you can simply get a list of all the .jpg's, .png's and .gif's in your wallpaper folder, add them to a slideshow, then save it to a file with the .wpl extension and Wallpaper Changer will use that. That's how I maintain some order while still being able to have my walls on an automatic rotation.

I have more than 6000 walls, and I have directories ranging a..z (plus one for numbers) so load times are shorter. Walls filenames are ordered by show/game/artist followed by a description of the wall. For this I use is the text seen in the wall or a description of what is seen in it.

I post an example.

I used to sort by date my wallpapers by the date that I decided to go searching because I was bored with my last set. But that was when I used to like all manner of shitty wallpapers (text, zoomlayer, 1024, etc). Now I just have my TV slideshow my 4chan folder that's just ecchi and wallpapers.

In directories, sorted by h/w ratio, and then by resolution. A couple of additional folders hold symlinks to wallpapers appropriate for the current resolution, and for whatever I want in my current rotation.

I store all of my wallpapers in one folder, by preference rather than anything else (well, all of my 4:3 and 5:4 wallpapers are in one folder on my desktop, and all of my 5:3 wallpapers are in one folder on my laptop).

I label them as:
Source Title - ###
if there are no characters or multiple characters or:
Source Title - Character Name - ###
if there is one character (or very rarely 'X and Y' or 'The Twins' or such if certain characters tend to share wallpapers).

If I don't know the / there isn't a source for the picture other than an artist then the artist or production company or whatever is used instead of source title and in the rare case of not knowing the source at all the wallpaper gets labelled:
Miscellaneous Anime - ###

I do not need wallpapers to be labelled any more precisely than that, as I can typically remember on sight of a wallpaper whether or not I have it (yes, even with thousands upon thousands of wallpapers), and roughly how old it is.

The only possible detail that could be any use in the file name would be the wallpaper's resolution, but the gain is negligible for having to rename so many files for it.
