Simple procedure

I want to achieve the following:

If a file is copied to a certain folder or one of its subfolders then
- create a message via Growl that there is a new file
- append a green lable.

That's it. Could not find a solution. Even the standard script for folder actions provided by apple did not work.

Try in order on the top level folder in which you place files and have subfolders:

First rule:
If Kind is Folder
Run Rules on Folder Contents

Second Rule:
If Date Added is after Date Last Matched
Send Growl notification with pattern <file> added.
Set Color label to [whatever color you want]
