It sounds like you are folding the windows into the top frame when you
are lowering it. STOP DOING THAT!!! (OOPS! Didn't mean to yell.)
When you start to fold down the frame, pull the entire hood material away
from the frame, toward the boot, and lay it out on the boot lid. It will
fold
itself in half. Fold the frame down all the way. Next, fold the side
windows
neatly onto the rear window. You may want to add a terrycloth towel to
protect the windows. Then, fold the hood forward over the frame and tuck
it down into the area behind the seats. All the windows will be flat and
rolled a bit, but there should be no creases.
Try it that way. Good luck.

When I put the top back up again, there are significant creases in the side
quarter windows. I don't know how to be more careful than I am about
this-what am I doing wrong? I really hate the fact that I appear to be
hurting my windows each time I put the top down. >>
