        python save_resources.py --library "Music" --art

    * Save posters, art, logos, and square art for an entire library:
        python save_resources.py --library "Movies" --poster --art --logo --squareArt

    * Save posters and art for a specific media type in a library:
        python save_resources.py --library "TV Shows" --libtype season --poster --art

    * Save themes for an entire library:
        python save_resources.py --library "TV Shows" --theme

    * Save posters for a specific item:
        python save_resources.py --rating_key 1234 --poster

    * Save art for a specific item:
        python save_resources.py --rating_key 1234 --art

    * Save posters, art, logos, and square art for a specific item:
        python save_resources.py --rating_key 1234 --poster --art --logo --squareArt

    * Overwrite existing images (add --overwrite flag):
        python save_resources.py --library "Movies" --poster --overwrite

I don't understand why "Saves poster and art images from Plex to same folder as the media files." The script did run, but I really have no idea just what it did other than add to log files Now what and how would one need to change to save posters in a simple windows folder [ie]
C:\Posters??????? I want easy access to the Posters. I have some colorized versions which are hard to find poster for, and yea, there are some rather crummy colorization , and some good.

Updated script with --logo and --squareArt options, as well as a flag to overwrite existing files (the script skips existing files by default now). Background art has been changed to art.jpg instead of background.jpg.
