I sort mine by shape then color, and have rare pieces and minifigs separate.
I don't.
Here is the way I would do it (I think I will eventually):
Heads
Torsos
Legs
Ropes & Capes
Bulk Bricks
Flats
Hair
Hats & Helmets (with visors)
Other
I used to have my bricks sorted by color.
Now it's just separated from bricks to minifigures.

I use one of those things behind my laptop. You can find them at Homedepot or maybe Loe's or Target. I also have two other container things with three big drawers each for more space.

Very minor bump: I need my studio to look as neat and tidy as that! I'm jealous.
Sorting? What is this thing you call "sorting"?
Nope I just have it all in various tubs and I spill it out all over the floor when I need something. That's something that's appealed to me ever since I got my first Lego sets - having a big pile of it and rummaging through it all for that one elusive piece.
Once I have enough space to actually properly sort it out I probably will.
I stopped doing that when I kept loosing pieces in the heating duct on my floor
I merely sort out the minifigs pieces in little plastic drawers. Other than that I'm with Sean.
