Make sure your wiiflow.ini is set up right , if not its not going to work ,

I have mine set up like this ,

sd:wiiflow/boxcovers
sd:wiiflow/covers
or if you are using fat 32 drive ,
usb:wiiflow/boxcovers
usb:wiiflow/covers

or
usb:apps/wiiflow/boxcovers
usb:apps/wiiflow/covers
you can do it with sdcard too

Open up the wiiflow.ini and see where the covers are going , then make it the same on your sdcard or usb drive

I downloaded with wiiflow itself and it put them in
SD:/wiiflow/boxcovers/
The full covers that is (all png and named after the Title ID (6 chars))

I see there's a normal cover in SD:/wiiflow/covers/ as well.

edit: also, I have this in the wiiflow.ini:
Code:
url_flat_covers=http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/cover/{loc}/{gameid6}.png|http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/cover/EN/{gameid6}.png|http://www.muntrue.nl/covers/ALL/160/225/boxart/{gameid6}.png
url_full_covers=http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfullHQ/{loc}/{gameid6}.png|http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfullHQ/EN/{gameid6}.png|http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfull/{loc}/{gameid6}.png|http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfull/EN/{gameid6}.png|http://www.muntrue.nl/covers/ALL/512/340/fullcover/{gameid6}.png
Don't know if that helps making it work

oh wow I don't even have a wiiflow.ini file, I have a hardrive with 2 partitions, one FAT32 for the gamecoveras and wiiflow folder, so just paste this into a text file and name it wiiflow.ini ? :

usb:wiiflow/boxcovers
usb:wiiflow/covers

Down load the newest wiiflow dol file ,
put it in apps/wiiflow/boot.dol ,

Then go to homebrew channel run the wiiflow , then it will make you folders and everything

Hmm it is not creating any ini file either on my HD in the FAT32 partition or on the SD card, could you SS or copy what is on your wiiflow.ini file so i can edit and make my own? thank you
