First of all, thanks for this beautiful and so useful app. With 1 screen on LiveArea full of folders with content I was looking exactly for this, so thanks a lot! Anyway I backed up the app.db, rebuilt the database through safe mode and then restored my apps' sorting order and folders (because after rebuilding the db every single folder was gone and there was a huge mess on the LiveArea) through Loadout option, but now I have some apps missing pictures usually stored on ../apps/%appname%/livearea/contents/ like bg.png and startup.png. Instead they got just blank light-grey colored pictures. Some apps have original pictures, but I couldn't figure out any consistent pattern in why some of them have ones, but others - don't. For the rest everything is perfectly fine - all games/homebrews/plugins are working. Is it a typical consequence for my actions (maybe it shouldn't restore everything after rebuilding db, idk)? Any ideas except rebuilding db again and sorting everything manually? :)

Unfortunately the "loadouts" option doesn't work as well as I thought it would. For whatever reason it works for me when I sort alphabetically asc/desc but anything else (manual layout) doesn't seem to work. You might have to rebuild your DB and manually sort. I think I'm going to remove that feature for the next version until I can get a proper working app.db loadout switch-er.

Thanks for your efficiency. Yeah, I've rebuilt the db and just let the Sorter sort it alphabetically - quite enough :) In some folders though it wouldn't sort anyhow, so I sorted them manually. If I can help somehow to improve this Loadouts feature, besides checking the code, please let me know.
