Summary	0019334: Can't add Artwork to sub-folders / Image mask chooser allows users to configure directories
Description	Although MediaMonkey has the option to add Directory to Mask for Artwork under Tools > Options > Tags & Playlists it doesn't actually create the folder, instead escaping \ as - in the filename
Steps To Reproduce	1 Set Mask to folder\folder.jpg in Tools > Options > Tags & Playlists and save image to file folder 2 Add Artwork --> Saved as folder-folder.jpg instead of expected folder/folder.jpg

Fixed in build	3522

The bug is that the mask chooser allows the user to choose 'Directory' (='\'). i.e. we don't need to implement this functionality--MM should just not include this option in the mask chooser for artwork.

So Mask should save with / replaced by - when user okays Options. image.png (51,214 bytes) image.png (51,214 bytes) image-2.png (41,991 bytes) image-2.png (41,991 bytes)
