I want to invoke " Hanlon's Razor" here, but I feel like that might be a bit too generous. Or am I misinterpreing intentions despite my request? Yeah, maybe you had good intentions and missed my request... Maybe... I have very good reasons to lack tolerance, but I try my best to remain calm under these trying conditions (i.e. I am dying rather quickly in a most painful way when I thought I was just approaching "middle age").
But despite my angst in this case, I do appreciate posts with images, which is my favorite way of posting, and other than that RENAMING PROBLEM (which I think you should fix), it looks good. There is NO NEED for extra renaming steps, and it adds unecessary and dangerous risk, so please remove those renaming steps and just use OUR designated filenames. Okay? Thanks in advance, while waiting for you to do as I requested.

I didn't see your post, sorry about that. I was running in and out between making the thread and watching the 4th of July parade with my family and haven't gone back to the other thread I posted in.
I'll see about updating the links next, thanks for the suggestions guys!
