Great little organizational program! Actually came back and wrote this (my first post) because the more I use it, the better it is!

Not sure if I can write something a few days after the giveaway?

Anyway, I gave this a try, and I love it! Thanks GAOTD! This was a handy little utility, simplifying an otherwise very cumbersome windows function.

I like to have folders organized, by category and what not, but sometimes a little color really sprites things up, and makes it more readable. Unless you overdo it (which maybe I do sometimes:p).

And I really like that you could add your own icons!

This one stays on my box!

This program is great! I used it at work to colorize my report folders. Now I have a different color for each day. It makes it a lot easier to browse to it when adding an attachment to an e-mail message. Thanks!!

Oops, I was too quick to reply without reading your re-reading of my comments. Hehe. Well, I would really love it if Folder Marker can do that automatically. That would be very, very, cool.

I know what you mean. But I am referring to a folder marker tool. What I mean is that since my default folder icon is different than the default Windows XP folder icon (I have already customized that), it would be useful to have Folder Marker use that as the basis for marking the folders – so, different colors but still match my (customized) default folder – and maybe add overlays for other icons. That way, I can have a consistent look and feel of the markers even if I have customized the default folder icon.

You are quite right about Help files. I think they have not been updated.

neat, but very limited use since it doesn’t work on network drives… and most of my stuff is on a NAS.

It is a pretty simply and straightforward piece of software. Actually functional. Installed with no problem on Vista home premium. Thumbs up, and thank you GOTD team.

Thank you GAOTD. team. Been using version 1.2 for years and liked it. This has a few more choices to pick from. I like the coloring of my folders as it makes it so much easier to find just what I am always in a hurry for without staring at the standard boring yellow folders.I don’t understand why anyone in there right frame of mind would thumbs down this program unless your smoking Crack ! Seriously, this is a pretty much straight forward program. I give it a 9 out of 10 points.
Thanks to the Vendor for letting us try this software out. Also thanks again to the give away team. Much appreciated.
