Then, I change the book folder icon to reflect what genre it is.

My DRM'd books (which means the backup copies of Sony Reader and ADE books here) has this main folder icon.Attachment 45489

OK, I know most will think it's a lot of work or crazy, but it is fast and works for me.
I like it. It's not so complicated if you don't use Caribre (or something like it). I can't really understand the Humour icon though... why do you use scissors?

Anyway, the system sounds good and I might actually adopt it.
