Default Re: What's best, short or long filenames??
That's not a long file name....Bagi has it right, so does Hasan....Use hyphens...And also, use the alt attribute(not a tag, an attribute).

MG, I have seen file names that were nearly an entire novelette in a URL....Your's isn't long...

Some say hyphens, some say underscores... nobody says why! Any definitive source for these views?

Thanks jump... it's difficult to know what people mean by long.

How long is a piece of string?
