Idea:

Linux Mint proves only the first numbers of a file and is not able to correctly sort DD/MM/YYYY(or any other combination) Dates.
Hmm, at the moment i don't remember where i have seen that, thought on my Win 7 Ultimate, but nope, not even there, have no idea where, but maybe it is a good idea to implement it, since creation date attributes from properties window sometimes getting false somehow!



Addendum:
Ahm, maybe you all had better Drugs then i, but my Mint 13 RC Mate with Nautilus and Dolphin is not able to sort Folder Names by DD/MM/YYYY at any man known way of listing it up. The important Point was, what i wrote above, that "since creation date attributes from properties window sometimes getting false somehow!"(I saw somewhere on Forums that, that can happen if Data lands on a Filesystem with any special Options set to don't care about Acces and Data Creation Date, by transmitting over Networks or by syncing with some bad options set in the FreeFileSync, etc.) and you can do it at Home too:
1.Make a Test Folder
2.Insert a Folder named 06.06.1980 (Which is meant as DD/MM/YYYY)
3.Insert a Folder named 01.08.1980 (Which is meant as DD/MM/YYYY)
4.Insert a Folder named 05.05.1980 (Which is meant as DD/MM/YYYY)
And then you should see(when having same System and Consciusness Conditions as i have), that it only sorts by its Data Creation Time or by its Name, but as i said only the first Numbers before the Point!
Yes i know, Computers would like it YYYY/MM/DD, but the most People gave me tons of Photos or elsewhat Folders this way DD/MM/YYYY!

you can sort file by date easily.
Exemple in the file manager: change display setting to list.
I demote.
