Folder Options - My Pictures View as Thumbnails

I hope this is easy...

Can I set Folder options so that The "My Pictures" folder and all of its
Sub-Folders are viewed as Thumbnails.

Problem: Adobe Photoshop elements by default creates folders for imported
pictures based upon the date the picture is taken. After each import I need
to set the folder option to view thumbnails...

Goal: I don't want to do this system wide as my preference is to see file
details for most other folders.

thanks
-tom

Re: Folder Options - My Pictures View as Thumbnails

In my experience you cannot set a View and have that view be applied
down the folder tree. It's a pain, but for a non-default view you have to
manually apply it to each folder/sub-folder. What you seek would be a
helpful feature but XP doesn't provide it.
