OK I know this topic has gone on before countless times and in most intances the result seems to be that it cannot be done due to xbmc and library restictions.
@djh_ OK I know this would be a bit of work but I was wondering if this is something that could be done on a theme side.
When you browse music by genre you you display genre images for that specific genre.
If you created a Directory in the theme directory called GenreImages. In that Directory you stored 2 files for every Genre needed.
So in the Image I post here you would have 2 files
Heavy Metal.jpg
Heavy Metal-big.jpg
Basically when you display the genre screen if there are images in the Genre directory that match the Genre name you display them on screen.
Image to show what I mean ( I have not changed images though )

Browsing by genre is the method I always use when playing music and it would be nice to have something clean here.
