The Media Browser community has some skilled graphic artists that have contributed all kinds of custom fan art.
With collections from quite a few talented community members already available, the choices vary from backdrops, genre icons, EHS Initial icons, Year icons. There are also entire collections of custom Movie Case icons, TV Series icons, Movie Boxset Collection icons and collections of Actor images.
All of that can be found right here on our very own Fan Art Section here on the Community Tracker.
Also, Jon has been so kind to act as a file host for Packages created by the community. See this Blog post to learn more
Jon also manages a community project called the “Collaborative ImagesByName Project” or CIP over at his website at http://www.thehtpc.net/.
See this post to learn more ImagesByName People Project.
All of the icon Packages he is already hosting from his site can be found here: http://www.thehtpc.net/cip/
Another good place to check out is the Fan art section on the Media Browser forums. You can find lots of information and artwork there, that might not be on the CIP.
A wide variety of music, games and generic fan art can be found at http://www.htbackdrops.com/
Resizing and cropping Desktop Wallpaper to the standard backdrop dimensions of 1280px X 720px or 1920px X 1080px is another way to get backdrops.
Note: Most of the fan art available, needs to be placed in the correct ImagesByName folder. More details about the IBN folder can be found here.
Other sets of icons can be used by setting them up in the configuration wizard as EHS (Enhanced Home Screen) icons.
You can do this by opening the config tool, highlight your media collection on the left then click change image on the right side.
Once that is set your custom icon will be displayed in the square placeholder box that is on the start up Home screen.
