I’ve just finished restructuring my local projects folder that I store all website files and related content in for all of the sites I host/develop. It now looks like this:

websitename.co.uk     // top directory for each domain
|
|_AIs                 // illustrator files produced
|_Backups             // db and web directory backups
|_Content             // files containing content sent through from client
|_Misc                // miscellaneous files (usually design briefs, contracts, tutorials…)
|_Pictures            // raw images from the client
|_PSDs                // photoshop files produced
|_Settings            // all settings (FTP details, Email accounts, DB details…)
|_Versions            // local storage of web directory 
  |_site.v1.0
  |_site.v1.1
  |_…

Seems to be working well at the moment. Just wondered how anyone else does it???

I split up the projects between working code and archives/related material.

The working directory is a folder that is identical to the server setup (plus a lighttpd config file).  And, regardless of whether it’s a team project or not, it’s always part of a svn repo to back up to (and possibly deploy from).

The archive is on my external and looks similar to your setup.
