I've said this several times before, but I don't believe the conversation ever really went anywhere, so I'm posting it here for community discussion, and hopefully this time, consensus.

I don't see the point in separating out images by HD ID. Ideally, we're only going to have HD images for the applicable games, so in the end we'd have huge unwieldy names for little reason. The aim seems to be to keep track of which images have HD replacements and which don't, but there's much better ways to keep track of that than something that requires permanent ill-ease of use. We should be categorizing the screenshots (alongside the original BbS/etc. categories) as belonging to the HD release. If we want to clearly communicate that the image is remastered, we can use a template like that at Memory Alpha, using an image from the image history. However, instead of uploading new files with unwieldy filenames, I strongly believe we should be uploading the higher quality images over the existing images, with their easy-to-use names, and marking them as remastered.
