The only things I see are that applications are still using TVDB and there are still more users adding data to TVDB than TMDB. Another website won't solve either problem, it will just fracture the user base even further.

Fanart.tv needs dev, design, and infrastructure help, then they might be able to expand to new artwork types and some other needed changes. For artwork otherwise, "Single artwork for each show rather than multiple choices" doesn't make much sense to me - it barely works for music, and TV shows generally have more options.

i try to agree with @rmrector! Such database not only need a lot of time and work, unfortunatly  if it should run good it costs money. And if it should still be an "open" database it needs community fan based funding or something like that.
Currently only TMDB for movies, TVDB for tvshows & fanart.tv for AAA artwork got into this stage.
Fanart related i am also currently in the stage instead of splitting up making sub projects over sub projects anyway with a lot of other database imported data, we should find a way to stick it together and unite.

As @rmrector stated Fanart.tv has still the best permission for that!
I can unterstand @Kore fanart.tv founder/maintainer very well, when he is stating and proving that the server costs are lots and lots more expensive than the donations
"the current system is fine as it is and currently no plans for more extensions or upgrades"

How should new projects survive if even Kore lost his motivation currently on putting further progress in. The fanart.tv project status is as open for puplic as it could be... everyone wants "for free for free", yes, me too! They are this also doing for free because its just their hobby and passion, its fun. 
But...
a webhoster with a bit of speed and storage space like here is needed... youll not get for free in this world.
