I hard coded my genre icons to /media/genre and media/genre/fanart and excluded them from textures.xbt , that way any user could change them out as necessary. i found that including the studio and media flags in textures.xbt substational increased the speed o fthe skin when in views with lots of images, ie fanart media flags studio falgs icon and genre icons. as the ones in textures are already loaded in to ram appearently. also i found that if i reduced/resized/resampled the icons and fanart for genre icons it greatly improved the performance of the view ( a great bit actually) now finding the right file size and resolution for the icons and fanart took an hour or so of testing and retesting..
Question do you notice a delay or have you tested compressing the studio and flags and genre icons to textures.xbt.. to see performance difference?
I personally compress mine and keep an uncompressed one for testing/editing and i definitely notice a difference... thoughts?
And finally what lists/views cant you get the icons to show properly on? ive got them working on anything i have tried...
