Hi hello :) , i would like to use your library with XR3Player (JavaFX Media Player ) for downloading Album Covers and Artists Images :)

Can i have an example on how to do it :) ?

Hi, As stated in the readMe:

All methods will return the response body as JSON.

You can view the JSON responses for different discogs API calls at https://www.discogs.com/developers/#page:database

From the JSON responses you can parse out links to to images hosted by discogs, which you would then have to load yourself.

For example in the Release response object, there is a "thumb" key for a smaller image and an "images" object which contains links to multiple sized images for the Release.
