No items in Art Library > Premium Assets > Marketplace Purchases for Dragonbane - Core Set

I'm a newbie on roll20 when it comes to setting up a game and I thought I'd have a go at running a Dragonbane solo game for myself to learn the UI, but I'm struggling with the Art Library > Premium Assets > Marketplace Purchases -- it's empty, despite me having the Dragonbane - Core Set in my list of purchases and adding the Dragonbane add-ons and module to my game. I've tried creating the game both with and without selecting the module and both with and without adding the two Dragonbane add-ons that are in my add-ons list (the Companion Add-on and the Pregenerated Character Pack), but nothing I do seems to populate the Premium Assets > Marketplace Purchases library. The only things that get populated are the journal and compendium, and, if I selected the module, pages and collections (macros, decks, tables). I've found that the Dragonbane monsters/npcs/pregens I drag and drop onto the map from the journal and compendium do have the Dragonbane tokens and art, but I was expecting I could use the same art and tokens on characters and monsters I create. But this doesn't seem possible, since the tokens and art don't appear in the Art Library. I asked the question on the roll20 subreddit (not sure if cross-linking to there is allowed here, so refraining), but no one's yet explicitly confirmed that Dragonbane items should appear in Premium Assets > Marketplace Purchases. So I thought I'd try checking here, too, before I contact roll20 support, in case they're simply not part of this purchase. Cheers.

Hi Giskard,  Marketplace compendium entries and modules do not come with art unless they specifically state that they do.  Based on the Marketplace entry for Dragonbane it comes with the following:  A compendium containing all the rules, equipment, and any other information you'd need or want to run your own adventures in the world of  Dragonbane Macros/Rollable Tables for character and adventure generation Pre-filled NPC character sheets in the compendium, made to use with the custom-tooled  Dragonbane  character sheet Thus, no art entries. And this is normal as very few (if any) Compendium products also include artwork in the art library. Marketplace purchases either they give you the art for you to set things up for yourself, or they pre-set everything up in the Compendium,  modules, etc. and thus do not need to include separate artwork. If you want to use that artwork for yourself there are ways you can do that.  You can drag a compendium creature over, remove all the statblock and then make that statblock what you want for your own creature.  Alternately you can save the artwork and then re-upload it.

Thanks, Gauss. That's very helpful. I was beginning to think that was the case. I had tried what you suggested and was struggling to achieve what I wanted, but I'm guessing that's just down to me not being very competent yet with the UI. I'm sure it'll get easier with a bit of practice. Edit: Marketplace purchases either they give you the art for you to set things up for yourself, or they pre-set everything up in the Compendium,  modules, etc. and thus do not need to include separate artwork. I understand those that pre-set everything will charge more than those that just give the art, but I don't think that means there's no point in also providing the art. Without the art, the only way to re-use the art for your own creations are either pretty tedious (i.e., dragging from the compendium something that uses the art so you can repurpose it) or eats into your personal data allowance (downloading and re-uploading the art), not to mention the time involved. I think those that do provide pre-sets should also consider providing the art assets. It'd be much more consumer friendly.
