Hi Eric,
Thanks for the effort on the patch-- I've added my comments to the ticket.
In order to get committed, it's going to need to support storage groups
(and likely *only* storage groups is acceptable as we're likely to be SG
only by .25). Also need support for all the artwork imagetypes, and to use
variables consistent with everywhere else in the frontend (ie, we never
refer to it as "bannerart"). Even after all of that is said and done, it
will also need a stamp of approval from Stuart Morgan as well as the code is
ultimately his.
Robert
