but if it takes like 7 minutes to download a single image, than you're in trouble.
Ahh yes... I can see the difficulty with the single thread...is there any way the single thread could have a timeout peiod of, say, three minutes, after which it would stop downloading images and refresh the slideshow, before re-commencing downloads? Or would that then provide inferior performance for those with decent internet connections?
Also, what are the current provisions for offline use? From what I can gather it will work fine for the first artist (if cached images are present), but then won't update to the next artist because it never finishes a download?

i'll gladly move my images to the addon_data folder.
will change that in the next release.
Thanks - sounds great - will we be able to seamlessly move the existing cache to the new location?
