Album art + iPod?

[iliveforthis99]

Ok this is probably a stupid question but i can't for the life of me figure it out. How do you get album art to show up while playing music on the ipod? I've had a gen5 30gb ipod for almost a month now and can't seem to figure it out.

When you edit your song info in itunes, you have to paste the image into the section labeled "artwork."

Or you can just paste the image in the blank space in the bottom left of the itunes screen that says "drag album artwork here," although you might need to set your preferences for this square mini display to always appear.

Once the album art is attached to the file in itunes it should appear to the left of the song/artist/album while the song is playing. To have the album art cover the entire screen while the song is playing press the button in the center of the clickwheel to cycle through ratings and album art for that particular song.

Right click on song, select "get album artwork". Gets it from iTunes and then when you connect your iPod, it loads up.

Yeah i've done all that and it still doesn't show up. I have the art for most of my albums on itunes and i can view it there but not on my ipod.
