Hi, first post here. Firstly, I'd like to kiss Tom's arse for his work on GameEx. I use it both as an MCE plugin on my HTPC and standalone on my desktop, and having spent a while setting it up, everything works absolutely perfectly. A great many evenings entertainment have been and will be had thanks to the wonderful way all my emus and pad-controllable PC games have been brought together in the living room. Kudos to you Tom, I hope you're doing well out of your hard work.

What prompted my post was the hilarious video box art that I often come across. This isn't a change request by any means, as it's provided entertainment in itself, merely an observation. I've no idea where the box art comes from (out of the left field maybe?), but here are some examples:

Tascam Portastudio Video Tutorial

The Judy Garland Show

Yes Live in Montreux

8 Minute Core Workouts

Hawaii 5-0 The First Season

Brilliant stuff. I guess something in the file metadata is triggering the art download. Sometimes it gets it right, mainly with films, probably because the titles are simple, although why The French Connection triggers box art for The Secret Life of Veronique (maybe because Veronique is a french name?) is quite odd. TV shows where you have episode numbers, or episode titles, are the main culprits of the examples above.

Anyway, keep up the good work Tom!
