Hi,
just my 2 cents:
1) for unknow artist icon. Best is to use a common icon and have random
background color which change with each artist.
That might be a good idea, I will check how it looks.
In the meantime, I added two more screenshots:

2) Paid attention to size of image for each artist. Load it in memory can
take a lot of space. Maybe make a thumbnail is better. don't you think?
I'm planning to reduce resolution of pictures, but I want to finish
GUI first. There were suggestion that it's better to do one-column
design to avoid artist name duplication. Current version of that
design doesn't look good, but it will be improved - I'll increase font
size to avoid big gaps and I'll experiment with fonts a bit.

Tomasz

Hi,
I'm writing Fanart Banshee extension which downloads artists' images
from Fanart.tv, stores them on disk and displays in ArtistView.
Fanart.tv provides PNG images of size 400px*155px (or 200px*77px) with
alpha channel. There are artist for which images are not available (or
there's not enough metadata to determine it).
Here is link to 4 files with proposed appearance of ArtistView:

"list - artists names first, no unknown images.png" is the best out of
them, but it's not good enough.
Temporary, I use one of standard GNOME icons for artist with no
dedicated artist image. That icon must be changed (if anyone has an
idea what icon/image can be used here, please let me know) or removed.
All suggestions and new screenshots edited with GIMP are welcomed.
Here's link to sample logo:
