Almost done manually labeling and adding thumbs and fanart to my comics collection. Though it kind of sucks that it takes so much work, I can honestly say that the results are very nice and worth the effort. Just a few more questions to complete the process.
1.) I use the same fanart for all comics in a particular series, rather than separate art for each issue. Do I really need 400 copies of the same artwork in my fanarts folder to cover my avengers collection?
2.) If I export all of my comics data to .nfo files can I erase the artwork to save HDD space? Also will the comics import into a new installation the way I set them up if the .nfo files are there?
3.) Is there a script available to export the entire collection to .nfo files, much like I do with my video library? I have almost 4000 comic scans now and that equals a ton of time to invest.
4.) Almost forgot this one. Many of my scans are all set up and renamed so they all match. When I go to import the data, they are always renamed. Is there an option to import data from the scraper without changing the names (which do not match the file names in most cases)?
