For some reason d=null when creating a drawable from coverArtURLStr, 
which is the full http path to the resource on the LAN.
Anything obvious wrong? It's a path to a .png
[I can access the LAN OK, and Data.defaultCoverArt works fine]

public static void updateCoverArt(String coverArtURLStr)
     {
     	String coverArtURL = coverArtURLStr;
     	Drawable d;
     	
     	if (coverArtURL.equals(""))
     		d = Data.defaultCoverArt;
     	else    		
     		d = Drawable.createFromPath(coverArtURL);
     	
     	Data.coverArtIV.setImageDrawable(d);
     }
