Guidelines:
File names:
Only use the lowercase characters [a-z], the numbers [0-9] and the hyphen character [-] in folder and file names.
  • Some servers are case sensitive and if you forget capitalization in a url, it won't work.
  • Some browsers and software don't handle special characters well
  • The underscore character is harder to see when it is underlined,
  • Some search engines rely on a dash (hyphen) to separate words and an underscore makes it look like one big word.
  • Typing a hyphen is a single key-stroke, whereas the underscore requires the Shift modifier key.
Use natural language and not abbreviations
eg logo.gif not l2.gif
