I like it just fine. I've seen more obtrusive water marks. I guess I have learned to look past them like I do newspaper ads. I will say this one could be cropped out by anyone and not hurt the picture much because of its placement. Message: 7 Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2012 15:50:14 -0500 From:

I can't see the top of your folder list from the image you posted so I can't tell if the parent folder to those shown is there or not. If not, try this - right click on any of your folders and select Show Parent Folder. Now you should be able to collapse all of those shown into the parent.
