I have just installed MediaPortal RC1 (server/client).  In the previous build I had customised logos for each TV channel that were placed in the ..../thumbs/tv/logos file and they appeared against the same named channel in mediaportal.  But when I went to do the same thing in RC1 there is no thumbs directory.  So where do the logos go?

I rely on the DVB-S downlinked EPG.
I have consulted mcraenz's guide but note that, tantalisingly, the customisation of MP is part 6 of his guide, and is still a work in progress.

Any bright ideas?   Have done a search cant find a solution.

Thanks.  The above is an XP directory and I should have mentioned I am running Vista.  I believe the equivalent is the USERS directory. Can't find thumbs with a quick search and I am away from the HTPC for a few days now so will ponder my next move when I get back.

Once again thanks for pointing me outside the MP installation directory.

Bingo!  Thanks for your help.  Vista had seen fit to hide the programdata directory (even with admin privileges).

Case closed...
