Bad practice: Bimbo

bimbo.jpgCrowstone Dental Care have a great photo on their homepage of a smiley, blonde girl, with really great teeth – a good image for a dental practice… But visit their website, right-click on the image, ‘save image as’ and look at the filename…

Not very professional although rather amusing. Not sure it would be quite enough for a lawsuit for defamation?

There is a chance that when you read this, the image on the Crowstone Dental Care website will have changed (if someone is nice enough to warn them of their error and reprimand the webeditor!) so just in case you missed the joke, the filename was ‘bimbo.jpg’

Lesson: think about what you name a file before uploading it to your website!
