Problem creating ImageMap with image starting with a number

If you try and create a ImageMap from a image file that starts with a number (for example "5tiles.png") the image cannot be added correctly

When you get to the ImageMap Builder screen after you select it, no image is displayed in the view, and if it is the first image no check boxes are clicked and no name is automatically filled

If you add the image (if you can, I had a crash occur once in a large datablock) the ImageMap is created but is "empty". Adding to a level gets blank block, (actually it puts the last "GOOD" image you had into the level)

On closing, I checked the datablock.cs - I had added 4 images, 2 with numbers and 2 without. The datablock contained only one

We have had this problem with files containing '-' signs. Added it to the bug tracker (issue #1580).
For now it maybe best to rename your files.
