Maybe you have to rename the folders or something like this.If roms and images (thumbs and fanarts) are into different directories, images filename (thumbs and fanarts) are the same than the roms filename (exepted of course extension). So it's possible.
When creating a launcher you just have to indicate where the thumbs and fanarts directories are located and then if you make a scan (with thumbs and fanarts scrapers deactivated) images will be automatically linked to the corresponding rome filname into advanced launcher.

I always thought about implementing an ALA import/export function in RCB but atm I don't have the time to do it.Malte, does RCB have import/export NFO files support? Maybe it could be possible for RCB and ALA to use a same structure of NFO files (or same data entries, because RCB manage more information than ALA) to import/export informations?
