Don't use b64 output in a filename -- it can have slashes in it! :-(
Simplest is to use old fashioned hexadeimal for stuff like that, unless
the number of chars is a significant problem. Go for a more complicated
encoding if you must.
we have been using base62 ie 0-9A-Za-z just to reduce the name length.
