Hello everyone,

I am a Web/Graphic Designer I have a full time job but I do a lot of freelance on the side. I have quite a few projects going on at the same time and I am starting to loose track of them. I am wondering if anyone can suggest a program that I can use to manage the project (time, billing, comments, work completed). Can anyone suggest a program that will help me organize and track my projects.

Thanks in advance.

Actually Pshop will do it for you! turn on the History Log in preferences, set up a file for it to write to and you can simply keep track of which files you’ve opened up to what you have done to a file. It will also time and date stamp!

Not perfect…but I don’t think this is what Adobe intended this for but its nice!

And anything is better than "Microsoft Projectile"!

Of course the log will only contain Photoshop activity. I am switching between applications all the time and using other devices (eg scanner, camera, etc).

I used M$ Project in a previous incarnation for real project management and it is good for that but it is not primarily a time logger.

Is there not a simple (=cheap and cheerful) program out there which would do what Jeff (and doubtless a few others) wants?

Looks like an interesting alternative to the Redmond leviathan but still too much project management and too little time logging.

I’m going to have a look at
