::::::::: BTW, I use the batch upload a lot. It preserves the original files names, at least it does now. Perhaps there were "issues" with that in the past. But it's easy to accidently overwrite files using that tool. I find it's best to check for file names that might have been used before proceeding with a batch upload. If a file exist with that name, it will just overwrite them. You can see the previous one in the history for the file. But it's a mess to sort it out!

:::::::::: "It preserves the original files names" .. good to know. As I said before: I havn't used it before cause I like to know what the system is doing instead of relying on automagic behaviour. But doing a manual upload for dozens of files is tedious and a waste of time. In this case I think would it be a best practice to prefix these files accordingly. "it's a mess to sort it out" .. Yeah! Exactly! Thats what I tried to do w/ these Dunhill images. And it was a lot of work to fix all these articles (half a dozen or so) that were corrupted.
