Version Control – Its Not Just For Hackers Anymore
You’re working on a Photoshop template and 7 versions ago you had a layer in it with the client’s logo with just the right shadow effect. But since then you’ve cleaned up all the unused layers and can’t find it anymore.
Or you’re working on a site and your CSS used to work and now it’s broken and you need to roll back. But did you save a complete copy of the site from that time someplace on your drive?
Version control used to be something only software developers used. But with the complexity of web site design, temnplate design, and Flash design, it can be a real boon to anyone who developers for the Web. Fortunately, version control now integrates right into the Windows XP desktop thanks to free programs like Tortoise SVN.
Logo : Rangoon ’42 Online Event

online event I ran this winter for the online game: Aces High. The event was set in Burma, 1941 so the design incorporates a Flying Tigers P-40 set against a stylized Japanese insignia.
