    There are other tools out there that do better. Toaster, CoverTag, NowPlaying.

    This is a very good idea, very good little utility. It's nice to be notified of the album coming up or to call it up. I made my alternative art name "cover.jpg" and that doesn't offend me to change the jacket front name to that. I do keep all my albums each in a separate folder so it fits my database.

    It's the kind of utility that I will probably consider an essential in about 6 months and as I get more conscious of saving album art.

    very young and promising program;
    it could nicer if:
    in plugin form,
    fade-slide (in & out) time selectable,
    read images embedded in idv2 tags,
    bicubic resize of image,
    selectable size of shown image,
    selectable position,
    auto-adaptable to current skin

    it's compatible also with media monkey (version 2.3.1.842 for sure), good!!!

    Good program idea but i hate how it forces you to organize your music a certain way, folders with a folder.jpg file in each... i like just having the album art embedded into each file... maybe for a future release :)

    [Developer]: Please note: This program is useful if:
    1.1. You use Winamp 5 (should work with 2.x too);
    1.2. You organize your musics in folders (e.g. one folder per CD);
    1.3. In each folder you save the CD's cover following Windows XP pattern: folder.jpg

    In addition, the image can't be hidden or something similar.
