Default AVI and JPG Connection

Hello all! Glad to be a part of the XBMC community. I do have a question about using custom JPG images and AVI files. For example, let's take the movie "Crash". My directory is "F:\Movies\AVI Movies\Crash\crash.avi" and I have a high-res JPG image of the Crash poster art named "crash-poster.jpg". When I use XBMC to go into this directory and I see ".." and "crash.avi", how can I have XBMC to show my "crash-poster.jpg" on top of my AVI file? This way, you can click or select the "crash-poster.jpg" to play the AVI.

Hopefully this makes sense, XBMC and custom skins are not allowing me to run in windowed mode so I can't take screen shots. This question does relate to the Horizonz skin, but it looks like it is going to be a deeper, more complex situation than just a hidden feature.

Any insight would be helpful! Thanks guys, looking forward to contributing to the community.

Name it crash.tbn.

Alternatively, folder.jpg will make it show at the folder level.
