Hi @Wintermute0110 !
I wanna to suggest a thing that I think is simple.
Let's say that I have itens in AEL:
Emulators (Category)
Arcades (Launcher)
Pc Games (Launcher)
So, In AEL configurations, we have to appoint some folders: Backups, Categories, Collections, Favorites and Launchers.
I wanna to suggest, if I have a [name of launcher]-fanart.jpg and [name of launcher]-poster.jpg inside Launchers Folder, AEL will display automatically to my desired launcher eg. Arcades. In My case will be arcades-fanart.jpg and arcades-poster.jpg. The same way is to Category: A file [name of category]-fanart.jpg and [name of category]-poster.jpg inside Categories folder wil set automatically to categories that we made.
If we have some collections, these [name of collections]-fanart/poster.jpg will be inside Collections folder.
To stand alone launchers, you can put a extra folder on these configurarions named Stand Alone or use the Launchers folder (an extra folder is most to keep things organized).
NFO's files with meta-data can be placed on the same folders of arts, named [name of launcher].nfo or [name of category].nfo. These way, we keep a bunch of images and nfo's placed on related folders, and save a LOT of work just to assign them to launchers and categories.
cheers!
