Simple, instead of creating a new file at "*/Tokenizer/pc-images"
Let it link to a folder with the images already organized.

Reason is, i've created syslinks of my archive of images into Foundry, so Foundry can have have access to my images, without me having to copy them inside foundry, doubling the weight of files on my HDD.
If on the screen below, or\and on the options had a chance to put "Do not copy Avatar" it would be perfect.

I don't really understand your report. You can change the default save location in the module settings, and saving an avatar is disabled by default.

If you are trying to use Tokenizer to link to existing files it's the wrong tool, it's for creating new token images. There is a module called Token Variant Art which can update token art in bulk to existing images.

Oh no.
I understand that.
I want to use Tokenizer to create new Tokens.
The layering system and pre-gen borders are fantastic.
The problem isn't with the right side of Tokenizer, but the Left side.
It also allows us to upload from the computer, for exemple, an image, for be used as the "Avatar". For showing a full image to players for exemple, right?

This one, i don't understand why, it recreate this image, on the "tokenizer/x-images" folder.

An exemple.
All of the big images, are on folders for their respective RPGs.
When tokenizer put them on the sheet, after i Upload from my computer, it creates a copy of that image here.

The request, is that Tokenizer doesn't do that, but instead, link the BIG image to their original piece, while creating a folder for Tokens.
