The issue that not perfectly square covers are cached as pngs, even if the source is jpg (only for _m and _p image specs, see below), is unrelated to this. Additionally, extGUI ships with it's own modified version of this framework, so it won't be by this change (something similar was already applied in my dev version when I reported the issue, but there has been no new release since then) > > If I change Settings\Interface\Thumbnail Size to 200, will that : > 1. reduce the artwork.db size ?

The LMS web UI uses 200x200_o (o=original=only width adjusted) if you set the size in the preferences to 200px, my plugin registers 200x200_m (m=resize using height and width), so you end up with two 200px images cached, doubling the storage size. Anyway, I've already added a preference for the pre-caching (which will default to false until the second issue is addressed - either in LMS as proposed 'here' (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?98776-Registering-custom-resizing-specificiations-to-be-pre-cached&p=749502&viewfull=1#post749502), or by changing my GUI to use _o resizing, which isn't affected by it), so in the next version, you can decide yourself if you want it or not.
