(Snapshots, artwork, marquees etc.) 07/17/12 04:11 AM Reply That exact layout was what I was looking at before. If it was available in a 1920x1200 image, I'd bite the bullet and do what it takes to make the frontend work. But the scaled-up 1024x768 image just isn't too pretty. ;p Also holding me back is the fact that the PC I'm putting all this on isn't terribly fast, and I have discovered that it can take a distractingly long time to load three or more separate artwork images per game. If only these frontends would have a pre-cache function built in. Obviously a person scrolling through their games is going to scroll either up or down next. Pre-caching the next and previous images could transform the loading time into the natural wait time during which the user is examining what they just selected. Obviously less of an issue if you're on a state of the art desktop PC, but I have to lug around an old laptop for this, sadly.
