The Animegroup release note comments are used to provide information on a group's particular release of a given anime. The most common information here would be credit/attribution for original sources, such as if the subtitles are from another group's work, or if a specific group's raws were used.
<i>for example: AonE</i>

The function generates short image IDs such as 1234.jpg. After uploading a picture, copy this image ID as-is into the PIC ID field.<br>
