This reminds me of something hilarious I saw on Facebook a few years ago. My graphic designer friend was joking about how she has a ton of PSD files in a folder with funny numbers, names, and notes in the filename.
Then, a programmer swooped into the comments section and tried to sell her on the merits of using git for version control. LOL. I nearly died laughing.
- Brajeshwar 3y agoAh! How many of her files has "final" in the filenames? ;-) Well, there was even a "Git for Photoshop." I think it was LayerVault[1] -- a search brings it up. Of course, yes, the trick with PSDs and static assets during the early days of the web were the file naming patterns. I did one in my 2nd or 3rd job long back (early 2000s), and when I met the team after 10-years; they were happy that they were pretty much still following the convention/pattern that I outlined. 1. https://www.layervault.com https://www.layervault.com
- whatshisface 3y agoThere's a meme somewhere about how if hackernews laughs at something, it's six months away from a successful product launch and years of profitable sales.
- stavros 3y agoWhat's funny about that? That sounds like a great idea.
- thequadehunter 3y agoThat's why it's funny. It IS a great idea, but they're preaching to the wrong choir.
