Frodo or Eden? If Frodo, have you run Artwork Downloader? Tell it to use local files if that's what you want.

Metropolis doesn't use the local image files -- it uses what is in the database. Not sure why yours is set to what looks like fanart and also not sure why Artwork Downloader isn't pulling it in, but.. you can correct it by pressing 'i' on the affected titles and 'Choose Artwork'.

Maybe Metropolis is still using ListItem.Icon instead of ListItem.Art(poster).

Hmm, ok, I fired off that reply as I was on my way out the door without too much thought because I was certain I addressed all this back when Frodo was released..
I am pretty sure ListItem.Icon is still synonymous with ListItem.Art(poster) in this case, is it not? At least, it's working fine for me here on several different installs.
If I had to guess, I think Artwork Downloader is not using his local artwork for whatever reason. It works in other skins because they probably still have fallbacks to read the -poster.jpg directly from disk, whereas Metropolis no longer has those fallbacks.
edit: It seems I just don't have any movies with the thumb() label.. apparently not a lot of others do either, since no one has complained.. anyway, I'll fix it.

Fix pushed up. Will be releasing a new version of Metropolis shortly (tonight or tomorrow), so you'll see it soon.

awesome jingai i will check out when i get a chance just so you know before this i did try several times to press i and choose poster that in fact was one of the first things i did try by selecting both remote and local and neither worked but i appears you may have figured out what the issue was and (hopefully) my setup should work once it is updated
will let know you know here either way

The posters probably weren't scraped initially and a screen grab got assigned to the thumb value.

Congratulations for the amazing skin
Metropolis and Ace are my favorite skins.
But i still have this problem with the thumbs (posters)
My collection is big 850 movies and at least the 50% , appear this problem.
So i have to choose art , one by one
Can you please guide me how to correct the posters?
P.S
I love the view : Poster and Fanart
It is fantastic .................
