I like the triangle idea too, Tom. Maybe I'll change it to the board's popular blood-red color?

Actually, with an icon to the left of the folders, why do we even need a "Subfolders" heading? I would put the Discussion Threads heading inside a blood-red bar at the top, like it used to be. Beneath that, list the folders with an icon to the left of them, effectively indenting the folder names. Then immediately below that, list the rest of the threads.
This also solves the issue of whether to call them subfolders or folders (psst -- I prefer folders). With the formatting above, they're not called anything!
If the folder names look weird so close to the rest of the threads, then maybe have a hozizontal rule or something, but I don't see the need for a whole heading thingie.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I like that, Jon.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

This is my favorite so far.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't think it's clear enough that they are folders, even with the pictures (either at work or at home). But it's not something I'm willing to argue about.

So you did. Sorry I missed that.
I think the names of the folders themselves indicate their folderiness.

They didn't to posters upthread.
And if they do, what are the icons for?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
They would if they had the word "Folder" appended to each of them.
