Organising the files

Well things are getting hectic and working on 3 different operating systems and 2 usb sticks is making file management complicated. Why 3 OSes:

    •    OSX because my laptop means I can work anywhere
    •    Windows Vista 64 as its my main machine at home thus convenient
    •    Linux as Vista is unreliable at times and Blender isn’t 64bit on it yet.

So now I sit down and organise a proper directory structure:

Meta
    Blog
        Renders
        Screenshots
    Resources
        Images
        Links
        Tutorials
        Documents
        Examples
    Animatic
    Artwork
    Production
        Characters
            Lil boy
            Butterfly
            Monster
            Mother
            Treant
        Environment
            World
            Valley
        Props
            Cottage
            Foliage
            Trees
            Audio
       Scenes

Best thing to keep things working between my mac and pc is a free rSync gui for OSX so I can synchronise this directory across the network.
