Hi Tony, Having slept over your considerations, I concur that the image files could be renamed sequentially, for instance, and in this case a new tiddler field would have to be created to hold the image filename, thankfully with no relation to the tiddler title. The drawback is loosing the ability to search and sort the images outside of TW (e.g., in a file browser/explorer) using the filename.
Another approach would be referencing the original files in the respective application directory (folder) structure (I am using TW to create an alternative presentation of this application data and images), but in this case I would need to build another TW, which is not that worrisome, as it would be an opportunity to learn more. Regards, Márcio.
