Theoretically, you can do it by setting artside=none, but there's a bug in it right now that causes it to crash.  I'm looking at it.

Ok - not really worried - I'm using an older pc which doesn't like too much graphics for the animations to work properly

How does the side art actually work....How do you marry up the Songs with the art?  Do you place it in-song directorys?

Yes.  The assumption is that each album will have its own folder. By default it'll look for folder.jpg, then the older style Album Art JPG's, then any JPG it can get its hands on... but you can change these rules in jukebox.ini.
