I know that an overlay icon would be specially difficult, so if you really, really, really have to have a visual indicator it has to be something that will work for color blind people, will be easily spotted and most of all will be optional.

color tagging is out of the question for usability and accessibility reasons and I know this is must be considered.

An elegant solution would be adding slashes or hashes or asterisk or a tick heck even a bullet.

Any other way Im not sure how it would be fluid and user friendly.

In any case the DATE and TIME is a dead give away it may not tell you that file was the last added but it will tell you when it was uploaded all anyone would need is be able to tell the time and know the date.

this is really a user feature, it has little use for Developers and IT managers... If your a developer or a IT manager that needs to know what file was last uploaded I have to question WHY?
