a: whre I find the "browse to.. " to enable it to pick up my photos or..

a) You must add picture sources to XBMC
b) Within MyPicsDB select menu "Paths of pictures folders" to add these paths to the database.

HINT: Net shares or use of a NAS
Python add-ons aren't able to access remote files! This will change with Frodo due to amendment of xbmcvfs.

To access remote files there are two possibilities depending on your used OS.

a) Windows client with SMB access to NAS
The path to a remote SMB source is stored in XBMC like SMB://server/directory
This is changed by MyPicsDB to \\server\directory
Therefore it'll work on Windows if the local user has access to the remote directory.
To give him access you must use the same User/Password combination on Windows and on the NAS.

b) Linux, MacOS, OpenELEC
These OS are Unix based and they don't support UNC paths like Windows.
You must locally mount your remote directory and then add the local mount point to XBMC as a picture source.
Afterwards MyPicsDB can access the "local" pictures.

b: failing the above how I get rid of the thing...

System->Addons

I am still unclear how to use this .
I already have added the picture source to XBMC . Are you saying this wont work for me because the files are on a remote NAS?
