KnowYourSources ~ Beta testers needed
4 min read
Hi everyone!
I am planning on releasing a program called KnowYourSources, which is aimed at helping the life of both digital artists and resource providers by giving them a free tool to be able to organize whole folders pretty quickly and easily. I started it as a personal project to help me with organization and then I thought maybe it could be useful for other people too.
If resources are named properly, chances of crediting and respecting Terms of Uses greatly increases, which is a good thing for both resource providers and artists.
I guess all of you know the scenario, when you download a texture pack and after extraction you see the files named like tex01.jpg, tex02.jpg, tex03.jpg. The biggest problem with these filenames is that they contain no information about their author, so it is only a matter of time before you forget where you got them from. One possible solution could be to start renaming all of them one by one, but that's a lot of work. Imagine downloading 5 packs, each containing 10 files, that means 50 files total.
This is where a program comes handy, which helps you to remember and even months later, know your sources.
With KnowYourSources, you have the possibility to completely rename your files in a folder, keep the original file names and only append text to them, or add text to the beginning of them.
Whether you are an artist, or a resource provider, with it, you can organize your content easier.
Before making it publicly available, I would need a couple of people who could help me with testing. Every person counts.
If you feel like taking part in the beta testing process, send me a note. 
KnowYourSources is cross-platform, so Linux, Mac and Windows users are all welcome.
You can also help a lot by sharing this journal, so more people can hear about it. ^^

Beta testers needed + Stuff + Feature

Hi everyone, this is going to be a real quick journal, because I'm really short on time.
1) I'm planning on releasing a program to help artists and resource providers batch-rename their files/the files they downloaded. So one can easily rename all the ugly "tex01.jpg" files in their folders and have meaningful names that help identify the author better. If you feel like helping me out as a beta tester before the initial release, I would appreciate it greatly.

2) It is really unfortunate that none of my 17 128th, 17 156th or 17 189th visitors showed up, so I cannot feature them...but it would have been fun. After publishing my previous journal, I saw a DA staff post about how pageviews work. It turns out my counter increases when someone checks out a deviation of mine too, not only when they visit my profile, so these ppl might not even had the simplest clue that they were the lucky visitors.
3) Since there will be no visitors feature, here are some works that I recently faved.

Of course you need to prove it with a screenshot.
Have a nice day everyone!
Oh, and here is some completely unrelated Skrillex 
Edit:
Meh, my bold font disappeared and now I'm left with this paper thin font. -_-"
Gosh, CSS, why can't you just simply work the way I want?

My premium membership is going to expire soon and I doubt it is worth extending it for some time. Who knows lol. Anyway, here is a big feature from some of my recent and not so recent faves.
There's no theme this time, randomness ftw!
PS: It sucks writing thumbnail journals, I cannot edit the last few thumbnails, so srry for the misaligned ones...:/ meh.
