Greetings,
Hi I've been using pureref for a couple years. This year I was doing my masters and had to use pureref to save my refrences.
I had a small issue in the end wich was to get refrences from the images to put on my thesis.
It was a big headache to later try to dig up artstation and other places to get the refrence.

I was wondering if there isn't a possiblity to add a system where evertime we import an image, we could have a automatic textbox where we could add a lengend to our images containing any information we'd like such as the artist or the link where we grabed them. Of course we would write ourselves because I belive it would be an hassle to code a sysyem for an automatic legend for the images.

I would sugest to have toggle in the options, wether we want this system or not. So the essence of pureref is mantained.
I think it would be better to help refrencing this to have a better refrecing system for papers or even portofolios.

Thank you for the suggestion! Every time you add an image to PureRef we try to store the original location of the image if it is available, and you can use the Open source command to navigate to it. For example if you drag an image from a webpage that page should be opened with this command. Sometimes it is not possible to automatically find this information though, like if you paste a screenshot or similar, so there's a Comment command that you can use to add manual source information and notes about the image. Are these 2 sufficient for your use case?
