My Programs - image size/description?

[nem2k2]

Is there a desirable size for images for the My Programs plugin? I've downloaded a few jpg images to use and they appear very pixellated on the Icon/Big Icon/Details views. Most of the images are quite large (eg. 700 x1000) so I guess resizing them would be a good idea But to what size?

Also, is there a way to add descriptions to ROMs in My Programs? The wiki doesn't say the plugin uses the MyDatabase.mdb file, so I guess adding files like {ROMNAME}.txt would not work?

around 300-400px is what i use.

and i dont think you can use descriptions, the version on the wiki doesnt use a database, the version im running does.
just for the rom names, mame requires roms to be called sdfsdf.zip which doesnt really tell you what the game is, so the database stores the .zip and the actual game name.

i have to rewrite this plugin, i dont think it works with gbpvr 0.97.x

Please rewrite it as soon as possible! Nearly 40% of Usage of my Media Center is BASED on your plugin! I can't live without it !!!
