I am new to XBMC, and I just love the Night skin.
But I can not figure out how to use the genre fanart. I downloaded genre fanart, named it "genre".jpg (like Action.jpg) and I placed al my files in a folder I created called genrefanart.
So the path is: "C:\Program Files\XBMC\addons\skin.night\media\extras\genrefanart\Action.jpg" but it just does not work.
Besides, if I change the moviegenres/action.jpg image, the genre icon in XBMC remains the same.
Am I forgetting something or doing something wrong?

2x check, if you also installed Night via addon Repo, that you don't have a copy in C:\Users\****\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons

I did indeed install Night via addon first, but after that I installed via git.
Have deleted C:\Users\**\Roaming\XBMC now, but i still don't see any fanart.

OK, reinstalled everything and now it works great, thnx .
But still one little problem, first I added some genre fanart I used before, and now I would like some other images. But although I have changed them in the genrefanart folders, the fanart in XBMC remains the same.
Can I refresh the fanart in some way? Thnx for helping.

Should just be a simple refresh or restart of the skin or XBMC. Images inside the /media folder do not get chached...

Restarted XBMC a few times and als chose another skin and went back to Night again, but still the old images appear.
How must I do a refresh?
