I'm not sure comments are needed, in the end we will have *both* images
in the library, leaving the users to decide what like best and use.

Adding the author name to the file name is a trick we added later to
ensure unique file names, it is NOT the authoritative mean to determine
the author, which is the metadata embedded *inside* the file, for
example your flag
(http://openclipart.org/clipart//signs_and_symbols/flags/europe/france/france_corsica.svg)
has all the author info inside it, here is an extras:

I am not a native English speaker, so will wait a little to see what
others think.

I don't know what was the reason for using red, it may be to fit the
color of the button next to the search box on the same bar
