I used the tags / label color highlighting feature in the past OS's extensively to order my folders. Now I've changed to 10.9 they seem to have all changed to a little dot, which is not as easy to see. Is there a way to get Mavericks to allow you to color the file / folder name as in previous versions of the OS?
Background
I tend to view my folders using the list view as below
Best Answer
I would recommend to use an application called Folders Factory for that.
You can download it from the Mac App Store and it only costs $2.99, so it will not break your budget, but it has some very fancy features you might like.
