Even then I think you're limited to where you can write:

But I want to be able to point the app to any folder on my local hard disk (or remote storage for that matter), with images, and it will then read in the list of images in that folder and generate the XMl and feed it to the control in the XML format required by the app.

Only had time for a quick look at this. Nice animation!
However to adapt it to your needs you can probably forget the XML part.
If you look in the MainPage.Xaml file you will see that the ItemTemplate for the CoverFlowControl consists simply of an Image control with the source bound to the ImageUrl property of the DataContext. So you need to define your own class to hold information for each image file, put them in a list (preferably an ObservableCollection I guess), make that the DataContext for the page and bind the Image source as neccessary.

Looks like an interesting project. Shout it you get stuck - if I have time I'd like to take a crack at it.......
