A. Directory Structure

Please keep your content in sub-directories named according to the list below. A general principal to follow is to group similar items into their own directories. All directory and file names must be lowercase.

1. Images—Put all GIF and JPEG files—any images for your Web site—in a directory named images.
   
   
2. Media—If your site contains any type of audio, video, Shockwave, Flash, or other multimedia files, they should go in the media directory.
   
   
3. PDF—Adobe PDF files should go in a pdf directory.
