Here's my home page. Down from 8 to 1.5. The second page has three folders of games vie downloaded from free app-a-day and that I never play. As you can see I've put three folders on the dock; I like the fact that if I get an email, the badge shows up on the folder and not just the mail icon.
for someone with your organizational prowess (which i admire and share), i'm surprised your folders vary, in terms of initial capitalization. just looking at your screen shots drives me bonkers. lol.
