This is more of a question/potential feature request.

I have been slowly putting sounds from my personal library on to freesound to give back to the sound community.

I take great care to use the universal category system (UCS) that has been developed and is being increasingly used by sound effect librarians and vendors. However, when sounds are downloaded from freesound several changes are made to the file name, which destroys the UCS naming convention. For example, information is added to the front of the name, and upper case characters are changed to lower case.

It would be amazing to have a feature to allow people to download without the file name changing. Or maybe this feature already exists and I haven't figured it out?

Thanks for any help!

Cheers,
Aidan
