It's mad how often developers have to be told that in almost every computer system in the entire world outside of Windows:Next update can you rename all of the image files to the same thing and not use some caps on the extensions and lower case on others? On Linux, *.PNG is a different file from *.png, Windows covers this mistake, other OS do not. Thanks.
/path/img.png
/Path/img.png
/PATH/img.png
/path/img.PNG
/path/Img.png
Are all completely different files and if you don't spell your file locations correctly then other systems will not hold your hand and return a 404 error.

Google.com/GOOGLE.COM/google.com are all different requests, it's just that modern browsers/servers convert everything into lower case so people don't have to worry. By practice, every folder and file in your structure should use nothing but lowercase letters.

. The list of professional developers I've worked with who have broken something due to stupid casing is long and it's just better for everybody if they adopt this as early as possible instead of making everybody in the office hate you in 5 years.
