bad SEO when using phpthumb

[fourroses666]

When I'm using phpthumb for my website the image is saved into folder /assets/cache/
In robots.txt there is a rule: Disallow: /assets/cache/

So the images are not found by Google 👎

I also hate the fact when replacing an image with the same name its not being updated.
The name isn't great also for SEO. When I call an image nike-shoes-green its renamed like 400x300-nike-shoes-green.4af.jpg
is it possible to remove the size on front?

[fourroses666]

maybe we can change the folder and add an option to remove the size on front of the image?

How do you manage multi size images (ie: one for ditto list and one for the article page) without the size suffix?
Furthermore, image size information are essential for multi size Responsive (picturefill) scripts

About Disallow: /assets/cache/ in 1.015 robot.txt

Can we fix in 1.0.16 with evo custom robot.txt?

When is 1.0.16 going to be released BTW?

[fourroses666]

Can at least this be added in robots.txt?

Allow: /assets/cache/images/

@Dmi3yy can we add these robot.txt lines from evo.custom in Evo 1.1?
so we can close this issue ;)

[fourroses666]
