    the idea of copying the files to your server and then copying back is regressive and decided around false logic.

    if the server interupts you still have the file open so you can save locally, although this has happened once in 14 years for me.

    if you copy the files off, you run multiple risks:
    a: someone else can edit the file. meaning 2 or more edit a file then the last person to copy it back wipes any othe redits
    b: the person working on the file forgets to copy it back (majority or fuck ups in anything is the people element) and you end up with an older copy on the server. which means an older version is backed up and if the person forgets or is away the next day and someone else goes to work on the file they're going to have the older version.

    • Our server used to corrupt psd's occasionally, so we all worked locally and then uploaded.Bargels
