Map Folders on GM screen(Couldn't find this if there is a way)

Hey there, I've just recently started DM-ing a game using roll20, but I had noticed that while making maps things become unruly. It would be nice if we there could be folder that the DM could make and place things like cities and other commonly used places in and that you can just move players there via the settings or something like that. I just think things get very confusing if everything is just on the bar that requires a constant back and forth. -J
+1, this idea would be fantastic.  In my current campaign I try to make some random encounters ahead of time (e.g caves you find off the road, a random hut, etc.), but organizing it all together is getting to be a considerable hassle.  Adding more cities and such as well, I can imagine it's going to get a bit complicated without any folders or search function for maps.
+another 1 The archive is great but even that is getting cluttered in my campaign.  Optionaly dividing maps into folders would be of great benefit.
Folders...Sigh...+1

+1 This is brought up almost every week. :)  For some reason the people that like tags are very very resistant to folders.  Mostly they feel people who like folders just don't know how to use tags.  I don't agree, some people just think differently.  I would much prefer folders with a way to search the folders vs tags with no folders!  An inbetween solution would be something similar to how gmail does it with pseudo folders using tags, but I don't really like how gmail does it myself and I use gmail for all my email.  You just learn to live with these things.
Can someone explain to me how tags work for maps.  Otherwise I will add that I would personally pledge to become a supporter in exchange for folders, at least as an available option, or even if it was subscription perk.  I REALLLY need a way to organize my pages.
+1 on folders for maps. +1 on folders for everything really.
I definitely second this, im playing around with the free version now, and highly tempted to subscribe if there's enough interest in my playgroup, but having folders for campaign organization would definitely sell me ;D
+1 for folders everywhere. maps, journal, etc.
