On the iPod when listening to music then double clicking the select button it shows a larger view almost full screen of the album art im wondering the size of this? I THINK its 200x200 but I want to be sure, anyone?

How do you even get album art to show up on your ipod?

Step By Step:

Once you have an album on your iPod -

1. Plug your iPod into your computer

2. Go to http://www.amazon.com and type the title of the album into the search box, then when the page loads click the view larger image of the CD art.

3. Once your iPod appears in iTunes, click the first song of of the album and then shift + click the last song, now the entire album is selected.

4. Ctrl + click (if on mac), right click (if on pc) - then click "Get Info" - now drag the art from the amazon page into the small empty box on the right hand side of the Get Info box.

5. Now hit OK - and the image file you dropped is being applied to all of the files ID3 tags which now when being played on your iPod and in iTunes will show up.

7. Try not to use really large file sizes for your art because it can cause some lag and other problems stick to 250x250 and below for size.

6. Enjoy, it always looks better when it has album art. When playing a song on your iPod that has Album Art if you click twice with the select button the album art will take up almost the entire screen which can look nice sometimes.

Hi

I know this is an old thread, does anyone know how you get full screen album artwork on the current 160gb iPod. The older iPod had the function where if you pressed the select button twice the album art would fill the screen now it doesn't, did Apple just do away withthis option?
