It looks like you are going to only .com ,not org. or co. It is true?

For bands i downloaded from www.mp3.com,i do not get any result

Trying many bands,i get a VERY annoying thing:after a click to play on album or artist,the list in the tree on the left allways set back to the beginning of the tree,at letter A.
Anyway to get the tree to stay at the 'level' of the last band played?

Look like a very funny plug-in
If you do not set the number of pictures to get at a big number,you get an allmost 100% relevant results

But sometimes you do not get even one revelant picture
For the band 'luna' i do not get one picture about the band

Hi Zevele,

when you use the built in search, MJ is passing the searches to http://images.google.com. They receive the links to images from them and I believe they can be in any domain.

I'm also still suprised on how accurate the Google image engine is in general... it obviously depends on how "common" the name of the band is.

But I think the "unexpected" occasional image is part of the fun

I'm not sure I understand your problem with the tree..I don't see here

I do not get any pictures from bands on mp3.com
I do not get any pictures from bands with an co.il adress for they sites

But ,as you say,i am really surprised by the % of accurate pictures

The problem with the tree is not Slide Show related.It is just that i played a lot of songs to see how Slide Show works

In the left window,you get artist/album in alphabetic order

Let say you want to play Rolling Stones
After a while you want to play and try the band just after Rolling Stones in you tree
But the artist/album is back to A,not to the last artist played.You have to scroll.With few thousand songs it is very annoying

zevele,

I just expanded the libray to see what it did, you are right, it is annoying. Had recently deleted a bunch of files so my left tree wasn't scrolling with a selection. Don't know if MJ can be made to remember last selection from the tree node.
