Is there a plug in or way to get actor photos for all actors or do I have to download them one at a  time??

Number 1. : There is no plugin you have to obtain any photos yourself.
click on a actor in the profile window up will pop a box with all his/her roles as per your local with a box where a picture can be held, double click this box and your web browser will start in google images mode searching for the said actors name. copy and paste your desired photo to that same box. done.

Number 2. : Some of us have already created a user /off Invelos site DB of actor headshots (but not all actors) links can be found at Here

Hope this helps.

I've been noticing a lot, that if you have no Picture,, it is becasue IMDB has no photo.   

and If you do have a photo it seems to be 100% of the time an IMDB image.   

wierd?,,  What I do is, search thru images/google and pick the most suitable photo.

My last task I preformed for this was the movie,  The Wizard of Oz - 1938 .
I found more than half the main actors ( Haley, Morgan, Toto, etc didn't have any image, and neither did IMDB., but google search brought up quite a few..
In the 60's, People took Acid to make the world Weird. Now the World is weird and People take Prozac to make it Normal.

If you are in the cast or crew window you have a button crew or cast information; If you click on that one, you get a window with the name of that cast/crew member. There is a white area where you drag the photo on. If you left double click on that area, your browser should open on the images.google.com page with the search done for that name. Pick a good one, right click on it and copy to the clipboard, return to dvdprofiler , right click on the white area and select paste. That should be it.

Huh?
That is strange since Profiler doesn't feed off of the mighty IMDB.com Monster. Then again the plug-ins are a horse of a different color.

He's probably referring to this project where users share their headshots with eachother.
