Image Server location: conflicting instructions

Question

Plumtree Corporate Portal v5.0.2
The Enterprise Web Development (EDK) guide says on page 19-18 to use the following folder structure for storing custom images, stylesheets, etc.:
<ROOT>/<domainname>/<productname>/private or public/help or img or js or styles or custom/
However, the UI Customization Guide says on page 4-20:
[The designated] location is \ptimages\imageserver\plumtree\portal\custom\img(in a standard portal installation).
Which is the best practice?

Answer 1

Here is what I do and find it very easy to manage.
{drive}:\BankersbankImageServer\<product>\[<public>|<private>]\[img | js | help]\
It then create a virtual directory under the imageserver virtual directory in IIS that points to BankersBankImageServer. This way, my files are not in any danger of getting distroyed when I do an upgrade of portal. Of course these files are on the imageserver machine. It also follows the recomendations of the EDK and UI Customization guide.
