How do you organise your art?

Sun Nov 29, 2009, 8:04 PM
Hey all,

I got a new computer and am starting to do art on it, which gives me a new opportunity to tackle a problem that always rears its ugly head: how do I sort my art? Should I separate images by when they're drawn, or the style of art? Obviously a project will get a folder of its own, but then do I split it up within the folder? When I save images into a simple format for uploading to the web, do I put them in yet another folder? Do I bother keeping them on my computer at all? (Considering there'll be a version online and I have the original .psd or whatever file.) But then what if I want to keep track of WIP pieces?

It's all so confusing! So tell me guys, how do/would you do it?

I got a question. what program did you use to make this picture in this tutorial? [link]

shut up.

Hi there,
The tutorial is kinda crowded but I think I do mention that I use Photoshop for it. A number of other programs also have similar effects with layer styles so you should be able to apply the same ideas. Unfortunately I won't be able to walk you through the exact steps for whatever program you use. Good luck!
