Yes, I should be out having a life right now, but I popped back home for a few minutes and for some reason ended up uploading a zip full of photos just for fun.

In any case... This is a comment/suggestion about maintaining a consistent user-experience across module functionality:

When one uploads a zip full of images, the module automatically creates image Names from the image filenames.... and that's all very good and convenient.

However, when one then wants to add a single photo to the album, the interface does not accept a blank Name field and one has to type something in manually for each additional image. It'd be handy if the single image upload worked in the same way as the multiple file upload... and would just go ahead and create the Name from the filename, unless otherwise specified.

The upload dialogue could state something like.. "Name: (optional - filename used by default)" and then it would go ahead and use the filename as the Name if nothing were entered. At the moment it returns the error "You Must Enter A Name For The Photo " if one tries to upload a photo as-is.

Also... as an additional refinement.... when the uploader creates image Names from filenames, could it remove the file extension along the way?

All up to you of course

Regards,
Rob
