IMDb+ scraper-script now supports multiple English based movie rating/certification systems.
This means any skin that uses images to show rating/certification will need to create additional images to compensate for this.
Australian rating (as per AU wikipedia article)
= E.PNG
= G.PNG
= PG.PNG
= M.PNG
= MA15.PNG (copy as MA15+.PNG)
= R18.PNG (copy as R18+.PNG)
= X18.PNG (copy as X18+.PNG)
There is also the rare RC.PNG
New Zealand rating (as per NZ wikipedia article)
= G.PNG
= PG.PNG
= M.PNG
= MA15.PNG (copy as MA15+.PNG)
= R13.PNG
= R15.PNG
= R16.PNG
= R18.PNG
= R.PNG
There is also RP13.PNG and RP16.PNG
United Kingdom (as per UK wikipedia article)
= U.PNG
= PG.PNG
= 12A.PNG
= 12.PNG
= 15.PNG
= 18.PNG
= R18.PNG
Canadian rating (as per CA wikipedia article)
They thankfully use pretty much the same images, so:
= G.PNG
= PG.PNG
= 14.PNG (copy as 14A.PNG)
= 18.PNG (copy as 18A.PNG)
= R.PNG
= A.PNG (copy as AA.PNG)
Those French always have to do it a little bit different
= G.PNG
= 13.PNG (copy as 13+.PNG)
= 16.PNG (copy as 16+.PNG)
= 18.PNG (copy as 18+.PNG)
The problem is that there is a lot of overlap in the filenames, and of course only one can be used, so some creative artistic licence will need to be taken and at least re-use the MPAA ones for G.PNG and PG.PNG. There is no field in MovPic that allows me to store which rating system was used, so it is not like an extra label can be used to differentiate via folders, but I'm sure you artists can figure something out
