i thought that would be a good place to put them, but for me there is nothing.
i already downloaded 3 images.
do i have to disable "Templates cleared at startup" in the config?

No, I have that setting enabled.�� However it currently does not self-update when you download an image**.�� Click on the template <Refresh> icon in the top right. Maybe you need to have "Local" selected when you do this. ��

**This is a bug.�� Its funny when you get so used to workarounds that you don't notice them anymore.

Actually, rather than a separate template folder I'd like to see an icon appear that indicates its got a local cached copy, plus a menu option to "Create image from local".�� I often accidentally click the remote repository when I know I've got a cached copy - but then its too late since the cache copy is deleted to make way for the download and I have to wait for the download to complete.
