First off sorry if this is the wrong spot to post it as I didn't see a "Design talk" forum. Or whatever you call it. I am in the middle of organizing my PC and now everything that I have on my external harddrive is now in one big folder called "**** to Keep" It is basically my Music/Movies/Pictures/Etc.. Right now I am trying to organize my graphics folder so it looks clean and neat but I need ideas. So if you could tell me how you organize yours that would help. Here is what my old one looked like. So ya people post yours cause I need ideas for mine cause I fail. Also screen shots are cool.
"Photoshop CS4" is my main folder. My subfolders are: -C4D -Downloaded PSD's -Images (all my stocks, etc.) -Ready for Sorting (all downloads go here for sorting.) -Work Save Folder (PNGs + PSDs) -Tutorials -Bought PSD -Received Gifts -Special
Let's see....ehm. C4D Sigs LPs My Renders Stocks (Fractal/Asteroid sub folder) Sample Pictures (The crappy file that's there at the start, for random images). Graphic Project 1 Graphic Project 2 Paintings
2 folders - GFX - Graphic Design Hobby work for sites like GR and others goes in the former, serious paid work and portfolio stuff goes in the latter. I have a significant folder tree in each one, but I'm not gonna go into that.
everything>gfx stuff> Art -auctioning -gifts -large art -non-psd -sold -psd's auction -psd's -sold -non-psd's extras -albums -auction #2 -brushes -CINEMA.4D.R10.5.By.Belal.Sa3id.(Sauron) -photog -bunch of other unorganized shit textures -textures ive tried to delete the entire gfx folder but it wouldnt work cause i have too much stuff
I'm not going to bother posting my huge tree, but I will tell you that I have chosen my GFX folder as the home for my porn collection. It goes under... GFX --> Photoshop --> New Creations --> Large Artwork --> Requests --> Friends --> Dan Project --> Stocks --> File Converter And there you have it.
So ya people post yours cause I need ideas for mine cause I fail. Also screen shots are cool. [/b][/quote] I do the same way.
Looks like steez has a black secret in the 'extras' folder. Anyway, mine is seriously messed up. Sorting it all out now.
