-Quicker recognition of movie since your brain equates a picture faster than reading.

- the "dark blue" actually looks lighter to me than the original blue, lighter than what I thought I picked when you asked for suggestions. Could it be made darker?
- when you pick the dark blue color, the text disappears from the list because it's blue text on blue background. Another place where I see this is in the Theme font setting
- I like the new "glow" but it should not be there if you don't have any Recent or In Progress item selected. If you move out of that space, the leftmost item returns to normal size but stays glowing
- is the main sidebar slightly transparent? If so, it's really hard to tell. Maybe it could be a bit more transparent.
- Settings > Appearance > Skin > Settings > Artwork - "Show media fanart as background" doesn't work. I have it turned off but still see fanart everywhere.

2. Unfortunately, you can not add your own background (why?)
