Thanks for the add-on and sorry if this is the wrong place to put bug reports

This is as good a place as any. I've added it to the issues list, and I'll try and get the fix into the next release.

A question has popped into my head after further playing with artist slideshow. Selecting a priority of "both" according to the wiki

will check for local images first. if they exist the downloaded images will be placed in the same directory as the local images. if not remote images will be stored in normal cache dir.

What's the reason for not populating extrafanart if there's not at least 1 image in there already? It seems to me this add-on could be an excellent way of filling in extrafanart gaps.

This add-on was never meant to be an artwork downloader. There are add-ons (like one called Artwork Downloader) available if you want to collect and download artwork. On a more technical level, items downloaded to the local images directory are excluded from the cache manager (meaning they will never be deleted). I really don't want to stick lots of stuff in a place that I'm not managing for space, so that's why if no existing local images are found the images get stored in the default location. Also, stuff in the default location is stored using hashes of the artist name. I didn't want those polluting someone's artist directory, and I didn't want to have to deal with creating directories with special characters that the various file systems don't allow.
