<p>There are folders in my images asset folder <code>craft/public_html/images/</code> named for individual entries (posts).  But, the folders are empty.  This is something new.  Only recent posts are represented.  The actual images for these and all posts are still there, the settings have not changed and everything seems okay. And, it appears I can delete one of these empty folders without negatively impacting the actual post. </p>

<p>Is this a quirk or associated with a recent update and therefore has some purpose?  Should I delete them or leave them?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

You haven't by any chance added an image transform?

There are folders in my images asset folder `craft/public_html/images/` named for individual entries (posts). But, the folders are empty. This is something new. Only recent posts are represented. The actual images for these and all posts are still there, the settings have not changed and everything seems okay. And, it appears I can delete one of these empty folders without negatively impacting the actual post.

Is this a quirk or associated with a recent update and therefore has some purpose? Should I delete them or leave them?

Thanks
