Just a thought, but it would be nice to have more control over how 'my favorite' images are shown when others view them. For example, I can currently make folders and categorize my portfolio submissions and select which galleries they show in. But with favorites, I can only mark an image a favorite and that is it. I would like to be able to create and assign them to folders like I can with portfolio images. For instance, when I select a photograph as a favorite, there would also be a drop down box to select what folder I would like that favorite to be in or create it if it doesn't already exist.

Specific: I vote on a challenge and see an image I want to select as a favorite. When I click to select as a favorite I also have to select or create the folder to save it in. Since during a challenge I would select 'Challenges' as my choice or create that folder. For my second choice I may select Landscape as that is the type of image it is.

Specific: I am viewing someone's portfolio. I see an image I want to select as a favorite. It may be because I like the image or it may be because I want to come back to that image for the editing steps detailed. So I select it as a favorite and when prompted I categorize it as 'reference'.

Does this make sense or am I off in lala land again?

EDIT: Umm...wait a minute. Don't answer the second part of that last question.

Good start to an excellent idea.

I've often wanted to categorize my favourites as well, into folders like "macro", "landscape", etc. I think it's a great idea.

I'd love some sort of way to categorize. I do find myself referencing them from time to time, and I have a pile of 'em.

Guess it is not that popular of an idea.
