Album artwork finally done!!! : )

It's been about 2 months of work, but all 13,118 songs in iTunes have album artwork. I painstakingly embedded the JPGs into the ID3 tagging so iTunes can't screw it up. What a labor of love, but definitely worth it!

Well done!
A lot of work indeed, but well worth it I would say. Saves you a lot of time if you ever have to rebuild your iTunes Library.

Congrats

That is a lot of work!

Slowly but steadily doing the same with my library.

Sorry to hear it took you two months (could've been much shorter with the right programmes), but good job nonetheless .

Congrats!

Tagging is a job I absolutely detest doing, hopefully it's one of those things you only need to do once *crosses fingers*.

Congrats! I would go crazy doing all the tags and album artwork for that many songs. XD

Not true. I have a ton of one-off/remix/live/bootleg music.

I tried TuneUp, it was worthless for most of my music.

I've only got 2000 or so songs. But all of mine contain artwork, it drives me nuts if they don't. 13,000 is a lot.

I gave up on album art after a while, its just not something I get to see at all, since I listen only on foobar (which is minimized most of the time) and the car in which case I dont even see the mp3 player. But congrats on getting it done right, if I had a nice dedicated LCD screen displaying song status with artwork (like Starbucks) when I'm playing music, I wouldve gone thru the effort as well.

Yeah, with my iTouch and iPod Classic I absolutely love it. I actually find that I enjoy using the Album Art scrolling feature to peruse my music library, when before it was just a bunch of "?" for each album.

Having 1700 albums at the flick of a thumb is very cool!

Can you explain what that means and how to do it? My artwork is always getting screwed up. Thank you...Rick
