A couple of days ago, I saw the above image by Yash Bhardwaj who created this humorous little illustration showing what everyone who has ever worked on a design project will have experienced at one time or another.

My solution uses multiple folders to create a better file structure for each version and it’s worked well so far.

If you maintain good file structure you’re making things much easier across the whole project, so next time you’re working on a project, instead of just adding _final to your filenames, why not try splitting each version out into its own folder (V1, V2, V3 etc..).
