Photo re-naming
Hi,
I have a folder containing several photos of my new grandson, all with different file names. Is there an easy way to re-name these without doing them one by one ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thiswill give you a list of photos called NEWNAME (1), NEWNAME (2) etc.
The above is assuming you are using Windows. Idon't know how you would do it on a Mac.

Pug's method is simple and elegant
here is a slightly more complex (but far more versatile way)
to start with ... copy some files to a folder - and play around - that way no real damage
