To be honst I'm not 100% sure exactly what is happening. But MAI, in
LocalArtwork.pm, has -$defaultArtistImg =
Slim::Web::HTTP::getSkinManager->fixHttpPath(preferences('server')->get('skin'),
'/html/images/artists.png');- as the fallback artist image. Material
ships a more material-esque fallback image in
-MaterialSkin/HTML/material/html/images/artists.png- Now, I'm guessing
if Material is set as the -default- skin, then its -artists.png- is
being picked up as the icon to use for artists in the 'My Music' list.
I'd confirm that. But it should not replace the icon for the "Artists" menu item in My Music.
I can easily remove the Material shipped artists.png - but then I get the LMS -icon- artists.png used as an artist -image- fallback. Which, IMVHO, is not a good mix. Hence, if MAI used its own, generic, fallback image (e.g. the one above) then the issue would be resolved. After-all, a generic CD image is used for missing album covers - so why not the same for missing artist images?
Ok, now I got you. Thanks for the extra coaching :-D.Now if only I was a better artist... the cover artwork is built around transparency, which helps to fit in with the various skins. I'll see what I can do.
