Small iterators

I would like to highlight a little update I did on Skeletonz today.

An issue is content management systems is file management. In Skeletonz filenames are unique. A good question is what should be done when an user uploads a file with a filename that's already in the system?

In my first iteration filenames were automatically made unique. This wasn't perfect since:

  • User wasn't in charge
  • Ugly filenames were produced (such as AJS5.js instead of AJS.js)

The solution

GreyBox upload window, where user selects a file - look at the simplicity:

Skeletonz upload 1

Ups, g_close.gif is already in the system, but no problem, the user can choose what to do:

Skeletonz upload 2

Simplicity rules.
