Undecided

Sorting 78rpm images, one could decide to use:

• <tin>/<part>/graphics

for images related to a TIND

This system would use more folders, using File explorer one couldn't see all images for one TINP.

One would need to decide when something is TIND related, e.g. 1) one page of a booklet could be related to a TIND. But I would define /images to hold images /of/ a TIND item, since the booklet is not the TIND item, if the TIND defines one disc, the image would go elsewhere.

2) an image of TIND and other TINP items, would need to go to <tin>/images

3) special case of 2) - a 78rpm inside the packaging, where one clearly sees the label.

4) sometimes it may be clear that something is an image of a TIND item, but only the TIN level is known, i.e. part number unknown.
