Right click on the music album folder in iTunes, click info, then there's a white square you can right click on and paste whatever image you've copied for that particular album.

iTunes didn't have artwork for a few of my older cds.
So I found them on amazon website and copied artwork manually from there.
You sometimes get a white border, but I;ve found most pretty good

I use tag & rename to do mine. Mainly because I make my own compilations of 60's 70's & 80's music and best ofs.

If I can't get artwork in itunes i just search for the album cover in google images. Choose a larger sized image (no less than 300x300) view full size and then drag into the artwork box that appears in bottom left corner of itunes. You have to of course make sure you have all album tracks highlighted, otherwise the artwork will only show up for one song.

Yeah, I just HAVE to have all the album art on my IPOD Touch I use Snagit if I can't find it on ITunes, so easy to cut and paste the album cover, now all my artwork is showing, the Touch occasionally mucks it up though and shows the wrong art work which I find VERY annoying!!!

I usually find mine on Amazon, if iTunes can't get them itself . . .

If you can't on Itunes, I get mine from Google Images. Type in the artist/song name, and find an image that won't get blurred, and is around 300x300! Have fun

Also, does anyone know how to solve this problem; when I paste Album Art in my Itunes Library it's fine and is all there, but when on my Ipod the Cover Art for some songs is missing?

Thanks!

Yes I do. I explained this in an earlier post I made on this thread. When you drag the artwork for an album into itunes you need to either do it for every individual track or better, select all the songs in the album (you may have to make it in a playlist if the itunes search button does not narrow down to the one album) then drag in the artwork.
