Blob.jpg? Change? Remove?

I recently noticed that when posting an image and changing the display resolution that the image displays with “blob.jpg” on mouse-over.

Is this something that I can change? Blob.jpg is not something that is flattering for people who are in images.

I looked into this once and I believe this is hard coded into the libraries that handle paste uploads. Can we change this @tgxworld?

Looks like we’re hardcoding it because we can’t determine the filename for a pasted image.

Does a generic “image.png” sound better?

Yes definitely. That would be better.

Ok done in
