All of them.  "Today" isn't a specific word.

Is'nt "today" the translation of the french word "aujourd'hui" ?

That narrows it down to a couple thousand paintings.

Batgirl is wrong about today not being specific since it means the current day.  What is meant is that you always say "Added today" even though it'll still say "Added today" 1,000 years from now.  When someone sees the ones you added 3 weeks ago, they see it as added the same day they're looking at it.  A date, like "Added September 31st 2012" would be more precise.  It really doesn't matter, nor does saying when you added it.

Most of the people on this site won't know what aujourd'hui is... Les plupart des gens ne parlent pas le français.

(Did any one notice it?)

batgirl

Then "Added Today" will mean a specific day always... either it's specific or it's not.

ClavierCavalier

You're probably going out of line here.

(Should be obvious that batgirl's comment snuck in before this one.)

You know, chess.com does have a vague date stamp it uses.  It think it's pretty specific until it gets to over a week, and then it's just "a week ago" and then "a month ago," "2 months ago," etc.  I'd bet that in 23 months it'll still say "a year ago."
