Noticed that the thumbnail method is not the best using Yahoo. I'd like to see some info on writing scrapers that would use RomNation or romWorld to get screenshots as thumbs for example.
ie
http://www.rom-world.com/viewscreenshots.php?id=87
It would be much better than Yahoo which generates a heap of irrelevent results every time.
My python scripting sucks (ok so I havn't put in the effort to learn it yet) but I think this would be a much better option.
Also is there any way to save the directory listings, it's annoying loading the entire directory every time I use the Launcher as I've got MANY roms.
