Post Beginner: How do I "protect" my backdrops?
Been fiddling around with ThumbGen, and it's an awesome program, but I don't understand the following:

When I scraped my first movies, I took care to select the backdrops I liked the most. However, when I regen the moviesheets from the .tgmd files with the "I'm feeling lucky" mode, I always end up with some backdrop I've never seen before...

So, what am I doing wrong and how can I make sure that my fanart decisions "stick"?

U can't "regenerate" moviesheets in "Lucky Mode" directly.
Your backdrops are in the .tgmd file.
If u want to regenerate sheets using different templates (keeping all your initial data) then you use "Create from metadata" (and no manual/auto/lucky). This will be fast and will perform no search. Will use 100% the data stored in the .tgmd

Thanks. Not sure where I got the idea that lucky mode was the one to use, but it all makes sense now.
