Default Organizing buy mode better?
Hi everyone

Lots of people will inderstand the feeling of going in the misc decor category with a slight feeling of dread.
I tried to solve it by creating categories, but some of my categories are just not discriminative enough.
My categories are: community, garden, small potted plants, big potted plants, large clutter, clutter, personal clutter, kitchen, food, bathroom, personal care, wall decorations, clothing, small statues, study, towels&pillows and furniture.
I was just wondering if some people might come up with other ideas for categories, because all the clutter categories and wall deco are still kind of big.

Are you editing each object to change the categories or are you talking about making Collections?

I'm at the point where it takes forever to scroll through my collections! And I still have more to make. As far as what to call the categories, I just plan to use whatever purpose I will mainly use the objects for, much like you have done. I break down community objects further into specific lot types though.

As for the wall decor, you could break that down into types of art (pop, classic, modern), or type of object (painting, poster, wall decor).

Yes, I meant collections (silly me). I like your ideas for the community lot type and wall decor type

Well, I'm not sure if it's exactly what you are looking for, but check my mod in my signature. It may help (somewhat).
