Please stop naming your betas "untitled"...

Post by Castor Troy » Fri Jun 25, 2004 10:44 pm

I've had 3 friends send me video betas today and I usually don't watch them right away after recieving them and I saved over "Untitled.mpg" twice and only saw the beta the 3rd friend sent me (you know who you are :P) but now I don't know what to say to the other 2 people when I see them again :?

How many times do your friends send you betas called "untitled"?

Sometimes they say "untitled", sometimes they say "beta" and the best ones are labeled "NEW.AVI". :o

I'm inclined to think that attaching names to betas would be a good thing. I've got a few betas sitting around that I can't attach names to, and it bugs me.
