+ tips for naming FBA preview images.

the preview image in game selection dialog can be displayed circularly

(the default cycletime is 2.5 seconds) if you named them correctly, for example:

in official FBA, name them like: mvsc.png, mvsc-p02.png, mvsc-p03.png...

in FBA shuffle and FBA v0.2.95.27 name them like: mvsc.png, mvsc [02].png, mvsc [03].png...

the MD games image is placed in previews\MD, titles\MD, flyers\MD.

+ read official FBA readme for more usage/optimisation tips.

I didn't look at the downloads. You'll have to ask kof2112 about it.
