    11=== HOW-TO: Organize Files === 
    22 
    3 Currently organization of files is limited to directories/folders. You can create a folder and then put your files into it to logically organize them. '''Note:''' There is no method to move a file from one folder to another ''after'' you upload it. To create a folder do the following: 
     3Files are organized by file type using the metasets. For example, if you upload a .GIF it will put put in the Images metaset. Beyond the automatic organization via metasets you can also create sets within each metaset. You can also nest sets within other sets if needed. A file can be associated with multiple sets.
