File names are not consistent between downloads, leading to duplicate files #211

I wanted to download the newer images uploaded to a server since the last time I extracted them, so I initiated another extraction with the criteria of all messages posted from the day before my last extraction until now.

After the download, I noticed that the images that were included in both extractions had different file names, so when I dragged the new ones into the folder I used for my last download, I ended up with duplicate images.

To test it, I initiated 2 back to back extractions with the same parameters/criteria, and confirmed that each one had slightly different names for the same images.

Maybe I just never noticed this before, but is there a way to keep the file names consistent between downloads?
