If you want to, you can:

	$TEXMFHOME +
	           |
	           +---Project X + (all text sources)
	           |             |
	           |             +--- Project X graphics files
	           |
	           +---Project Y + (all text sources)
	           |             |
	           |             +--- Project Y graphics files
	           |
	           +---
	           |
	           |
	           +---all purpose graphics dump site
	           |
	           |

Another way is using project names as prefix to the image files.


I hope that some day users will become as intelligent as their  
computers (and find things inside a cache haystack without burning it  
down).
