Hi Chad, The Smithsonian American Art Museum names its images files this way: Accession Number_1a.jpg where the 1 means the primary image and the a is the image size. When additional images are added to the record, we use _2a, etc. I do not know what the standards for image resolution are.

However, we are currently stalling in the area of policy making governing how information is entered, and in particular, how images are named. Can anyone share the naming convention their institution has adopted for digital image assets, or the standards for image resolution that they are using? Many Thanks! ~Chad Chad M Petrovay Collections Database Administrator The Walters Art Museum 600 North Charles Street Baltimore, MD 21210 P: 410.547.9000 x266 F: 410.837.4846 [log in to unmask] www.thewalters.org <http://www.thewalters.org/> Exhibitions: Gee's Bend: The Architecture of the Quilt on view June 15 - August 26 Linda Day Clark: The Gee's Bend Photographs on view June 15 - September 2
