Placement of code snippets.

Note: I'm not complaining about my posts being moved.
Shouldn't specific code threads go into their most relevant folder instead of the general code snippets folder?
To me it makes more sense to put graphics snippets and functions in the graphics folder rather than the code snippets folder. I reckon a user coming to the forum to look for stuff about making thumbnails (for example) is much more likely to look in the graphics folder than code snippets for code to help them. Similarly, database code would make more sense in the database folder. JavaScript snippets should go in the clientside folder. The code snippets folder is best suited to threads of a more general nature.
I reckon. Maybe.
