Yeah, I think 10,000 ought to be enough for me! Hahahahahaha ;-)



Thanks!

Hi Scott,

Actually, I just fixed bug 1, thinking that this would enable
up to 10000 images. That ought to be enough for anybody.

I may switch to base 36, though, so that the file name can
be characters 0-9 and a-z. Then there could be up to 36^4,
or something like 1.69 million images. _That_ ought to be enough
for anybody.
