techniques for sorting images? advice?

right now, I have my aviation pictures, each date has its own folder and then I label the airport.


but now I am thinking I should do them by airport, then within the thr airport folder, do by date, so in essence creating sub folders by date within the larger airport folder?

please advise me what you guys do. I'd like to hear how you might do it differently.
thanks.

That's right, I do airport>date (i.e.: LGA>2006_01_18) When I process them, I usually use registration, date and a letter if I have multiples (N123AB_2006_01_18_A.jpg). Also, I also use a couple of sub-folders for stuff I'm uploading to JetPhotos or NYCA.

While we're on the subject of file names, does anyone know a way around the 32 character limit for naming files in Photoshop?
