Daniel, there are clowns. 
Typically, I try to keep the number of characters in the file name under 8 characters, but that only really matters if you want to ff them later. Other than that, all your graphics are sequentially number for each sequence. You *must* add numbers to the end of each file, otherwise the engine won't load them based on the information it gets from the Dink.ini.

If you're talking about releasing them to the public as a graphics pack... you don't necessarily need to provide a scripting file, but it's certainly nice and less work for whoever downloads them. At the bare minimum, I'd make sure that you at least included .ini lines for them so that they could be easily modified and implemented by others.

Also... why are you misquoting Yoda?
