Your program is simply the best I have ever tried. Well organized, beautifully made. I swear I shall buy it as soon as I can get rid of some debts I now have.
But is there any simple way to put the album cover art inside the mp3 file, so that programs such as MusicMatch and Windows Media Player can show anyone my beautifully ordered mp3 files?

Besides, Mr. Bråding is there any possibilities for you to translate your excellent program into other languages. I could help you, and I would do it for free. I would really do!

Thank you so much

I'm glad you like the program. :) ID3v2 album art is not fully supported in the current version (you can extract it, but not write it), but it's planned for a future version.

The main problem with translating the program is that the same string from different languages take up different amount of space in the GUI, otherwise I would have done it already, but that fact makes it a real mess. :( Thanks for the offer anyway.

My favourite is ID3v2 PictureBox, a plugin for wimamp 2.91. One right click to select an image from windows folder. It can also add the same image to any number of mp3s in one go if for example you want to add artist picture.
Of course you also need to have winamp 2.91. As far as I know windows media player doesn't display images stored within tag, but musicmatch should show them.
Plugin is on winamp site http://classic.winamp.com/plugins/detail.jhtml?componentId=37798

What would help me is if you included an option to embed "folder.jpg" (usually a hidden/system file) into each MP3.  Windows XP/?2000? uses this to thumbnail a folder and WinMedia Player automatically popluates a folder with the album art the song is from. I've gone through the trouble of making this correct for each album. If your program would automatically walk through a set of folders and embedd each MP3 with the folder.jpg from the folder it was in, 85% of my collection(11,000 songs) would have embedded images in one shot.

I'm sure this would help many and piggy back on the back of what WMP is already doing to our folders.
