This is how I generally do it. The structure for the "work" directory might vary depending if I'm working on a more dynamic site.
project folder
_docs (request doc, estimate, contract, etc.)
_source (psds, images, media, etc. supplied by client)
_reference
_work (this is my work, this is what goes live)
__scrap (stuff that I might not use, but don't wanna delete just yet)
__inc (include files)
__static (content that won't change)
___images
___styles
___scripts
___media (swf)
___xml (usually for swf files that require it)
___downloads (pdfs, etc)

what are you guys putting in includes, are those headers and footers and such that get.. uh... included on each page?
- factoryxii0
i see some ppl put js,css or swf in the folder "includes"
- acescence0
just curious, a lot of dynamic sites have configuration files, database passwords, etc in includes directories, safer to put that stuff outside of the web root so it can't be reached via browser. but some people use it like a template system where they have static page elements in an includes directory

I save EVERYTHING to the desktop, it makes me look busy in front of clients, also I know where it all is.
When it get's full I create a new folder called 'old desktop' apple-A everything and drag it in there.
