Hello Peter, I am quite sure that TJ did not mean to criticize your technique to file the images, but maybe just offering to write a quick script to do a batch renaming of the figures (at least that's how I read it). Anyway, the only reason I am writing yet another email in this thread is because I really like the contents of the sign on your desk and I am afraid I will have to steal it: you have been warned! :-) Cheers, Michele
