New repository question

I'm new to SVN and SmartSVN.

I suspect I may have done things in the wrong order or way...

I have created a repository for my program projects. I had a bunch of
existing projects which I imported en masse into the repository. My
folder structure was something like this:

projects
projectA
subfolderA1
subfolderA2
subfolderA3
projectB
subfolderB1
subfolderB2
subfolderB3
projectC
subfolderC1
subfolderC2
subfolderC3
projectD
subfolderD1
subfolderD2
subfolderD3

I assumed after importing that I could create trunk, branches and
tags folders and move things around. I see what I think is the way to
move things (right-click on a folder in the directory tree and choose
Move...). However, I don't see how to create trunk, branches and tags
folders. How is that done?

If I understand things, these trunk, branches and tags folders can be
part of SVN but do not have to be created in the physical folders. Is
that correct?

What I want to end up with inside of the repository is this, which is
what I understand to be the recommended layout (if I'm wrong, let me
know!):

projects
projectA
trunk
subfolderA1
subfolderA2
subfolderA3
branches
tags
projectB
trunk
subfolderB1
subfolderB2
subfolderB3
branches
tags
projectC
trunk
subfolderC1
subfolderC2
subfolderC3
branches
tags
projectD
trunk
subfolderD1
subfolderD2
subfolderD3
branches
tags

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Such manipulations are best done from within the Repository Browser
(with the Professional version):

> projects
> projectA
> subfolderA1
> subfolderA2
> subfolderA3

1) Move projects/projectA to projects/projectA~
2) Create directory projects/projectA
3) Move projects/projectA~ to projects/projectA/trunk
