Example of Photos Collected by Date and by PC Folder Structure
First of all, it's helpful to understand the underlying data used to build the two examples below.
In this case, the files that are being shown are based on two groups of photos. One group is
located under user Susan's home Pictures folder, with a number of uploaded photos and a single
named photo (Beach_sunrise.jpg). This group of photos could be on any particular computer in
the network (or even split across two computers). The second group of photos is on a particular
computer (LaptopDad), but not under a user's home Pictures folder. In this case, it's under
D:\Photo Collection\... Also, note that all of the photos on LaptopDad are organized and named
with meaningful names, including a copy of the Beach_sunrise.jpg file that also exists on Susan's
group of files.
