Also, the images being displayed are only showed at a small resoution and finding high quality 1080p fanart for obscure TV shows is not that easy. I think as long as the font is readable and if possible, is the same font the show uses for DVD's etc then there great. After all, noone is being forced to use them.

sorry. i didn't mean to steal your thunder or anything, lol. please don't delete it. i'm of the opinion that people should have a choice. i was annoyed at the poeple slagging other peoples work off at first but i'm pretty sure it's a minority. the majority of people here seem genuinely pleased that people are taking the time out to share their work. anything you produce and share is going to be of value to someone. and as i've found, the more you practice the better you get. some people here are producing phenomenal stuff and that's the standard i'm trying to work towards. i couldn't do logos at first but it only took me a few hours to pick it up. once you've got it it's fairly easy once you find a reasonably good quality source. keep up the good work mate...

I think the general consensus is just to use fanart. There is currently a request for a change in multiplax so the fanart you see when browsing at episode level is in fact the season thumb.

Is there any way to enable this view in files mode?
- d0m3 - 2009-04-29
I doubt it as it pretty much uses library data and in files mode you would just see file names rather then epiusode information.

As I have some shows not listed here, and seeing that I really suck at image editing, I'd like to request a few shows. Is that possible, and if so, is this the place to do it?
- El Massman - 2009-04-29
i guess this is as good a place as any. i'm open to trying requests. if i can't handle it i'm sure someone else who can will step up to the bar.

This is pretty much an everyone wins situation and we can just drop it now and get back to the making of images. :p
p.s. Massman i think your images are just fine. Keep up the good work.

The O.C.
I took the other one down so if you could replace it with this one in the list.

I just thought people was a little fast on the trigger when uploading. As stated, 720p isn't really needed, Im just questioning if there should be a base template design.

1080 and 720 is most likely huge overkills. Until a standard is set, like it is for backdrops, posters, banners and actors, we should exercise some caution before filling up thetvdb. Most of the images uploaded looks fine for its intended use.

My intention wasn't to slag people so sorry if it came off like that. It was more about hopefully establish some base parameters for what is a new format.

Gotta respect Steve Mcqueen for that post just. I think thetvdb.com just need to implent this new feature pretty soon as I bet a lot of people use Aeon and use TV shows in there XBMC library.
