Any chance of substituting plain text if no logo can be found?

butchabay this might not be any help and might have nothing to do with what you are asking, but I think it needs to go artistfolder/logo.png so something like special://skin/extras/artist/$INFO[ListItem.Label]/logo.png maybe?
Though I don't know why that would stop you being able to load an image.
Have you looked at how stoli does it in the view?

I'm wondering if it would be best to setup an 'Music Artwork Folder' path for these things instead. It would functions sort of how you already have the Music Path working here but with a slight twist. It's just for the artwork. This way it can be completely independent from the music folder.
Using a path format like this:
music_artwork
--->Artist
------>fanarts.jpg(multiple fanarts)
------>clearlogo.png
------>Album
--------->folder.jpg
--------->cdart.png
------>Album2
--------->folder.jpg
--------->cdart.png
--->Artist2
------>fanarts.jpg(multiple fanarts)
------>clearlogo.png
------>Album
--------->folder.jpg(higher res)
--------->cdart.png
Though it might be excessive but I think it would work better over all. My script(cdART Manager) wouldn't have any problem building this folder set up and keep it's normal use for other users.
Although this wouldn't work for cdART on multi-disc albums(since they are usually separated folders(CD1, CD2, etc.) So cdARTs could be potentially be removed from this layout.
