The following pages have more in-depth documentation specific to FS-UAE Launcher:

Screenshots and Covers

FS-UAE Launcher supports displaying a cover, a title screen and a number of screenshots per game / configuration. The name and location of these images are determined from the name of the configuration.

If you have a configuration called Lotus Turbo Challenge 2, the cover will be found in:

Documents/FS-UAE/Covers/L/Lotus Turbo Challenge 2.jpg

or, if not found,

The title screen:

And the screenshots display in FS-UAE launcher are found in the directory Documents/FS-UAE/Screenshots:

If you have a left parenthesis in the configuration name, only the bit before the parenthesis will be used to look up the images. So for instance, images for Lotus Turbo Challenge 2 (WHDLoad) will also be found at exactly the same place as the above examples. If you want to distinguish two similar configurations, consider using square brackets instead, e.g. Elf [Ocean] and Elf [MicroValue].

If the game name starts with the words The or A, these words will be ignored when deciding on the directory letter. So the screenshots for A Cruise for a Corpse should be put in the C directory, and likewise, screenshots for The Manager should be put in the M directory.
