I'm just after a bit of advice if anyone can clear up the confusion I seem to be having.
Example:
I had a show which didn't have any Season Thumbs (landscape 16.9), so I created one and added it to fanart.tv, then when I 'Get Artwork' the new thumb shows up, great
That's impossible because we don't download season thumbs yet
You probably mean the regular thumb 16:9.
PHP Code:
landscape.jpg
Or you mean the regular poster
Quote:I then decided I wanted a different Thumb on a different show (this show already had a Thumb showing), I did the same again, created a Thumb, uploaded it to fanart.tv (got it approved), but then could find no way to change the current Thumb to my new one, it wasn't showing up in the selections under 'Change thumb', I discovered that theses were the tvdb ones only.
So, is there a guide/explaination of how the artwork is sourced, so I can change my Series Thumb to the one I want, without having to put it in the folder manually?
Thanks in advance.

XBMC itself only uses TVDB as it's artwork source.
That means 'posters', 'season posters' and 'banners'. Change thumb is an XBMC button which we have nothing to do with.
We provide both from TVDB and fanart.tv and they each have their own types.
So it's important to understand the difference between those.
You have Thumb' and in general they mean 'Poster'. You also have 'Thumb 16:9' and that the widescreen image that is saved as landscape.jpg.
