hi justerini

Easiest way of finding thumbs folder is run MP config, top left corner is link to "user files", you'll find your thumbs folder there.
Then you can create your Fan Art folder, if it does not exist.

enter a series in mp and press F9 select Fanart and download directly from tvdb

note i need to restart for them to show

yeah forgot u need the latest svn for that download

note it has some bugs and it changes alot so make a backup of tvseriesdb if u want to try it


but to manually put them to better answer your question

the fan art should be named online series id (wich u can get from the details view in tvseries config)

so under \thumbs\Fan Art\ u put
70851.png for stargate atlantis
and u can have
70851-1.png
70851-2.png and so on
or
70851_stargate_atlantis_1.png
70851_stargate_atlantis_2.png
like on this site MediaPortal TVSeries Fan Art System
