Sorry, not the case here as you are using the free version.

<p>I can't find any information on this issue, but I'm not seeing any way to create subfolders in the Assets view of the control panel. I just see all of my images with no folders. Is this feature restricted to paid versions?</p>

What you see on the left in the Asset section, are asset-sources and their subfolders. You can configure them in `Settings -> Assets -> New Source`.

In this example, `Drinks` and `Cars` are asset-sources:

![Assets](https://i.sstatic.net/fa44U.jpg)

You can add subfolders to each asset-source (and each other subfolder) with `Rightclick -> New subfolder`.
