Images for artwork

recently i discovered that i can add artwork for albums myself. however i had some troubles.
some pics i add works just fine, but some has troubles.
like some pictures shows only while ipod touch in horizontal position, and when in vertical its just black screen. and some artwork shows black screen at any position. in my opinion it has something to do with size of the images(most of them are 1024x768)
anyone else has experienced problems like that? and have any solutions to the problem?

Sometimes I'll create an album called "other" which contains a bunch of songs by one artist from a bunch of different albums.
Why not simply create a playlist with all these songs rather than messing up the tags/names?
iTunes seems to pick one of the images as the main one.
It uses the first track in the album.

How to add ONE image as artwork for an entire album ?..

How do you add a single image as artwork for an entire album (i.e. without having redundant copies for each individual track).
I already know that iTunes has its own artwork system that allows for this, but this is not helpful if the album art is not in their database.
Thanks in advance.

Furthermore, if iTunes has erroneously downloaded an album cover for you that you want to change, you'll have to highlight the group of songs you wish to change and go to 'info'. Click on the 'album artwork' tab and delete the artwork that's there before adding your own, otherwise iTunes keeps both and only the first one will continue to show as the default.
If you want to download the correct album covers (or a different/cleaner/more accurate version) just go to the Images section of Google, type in the album name and copy the image of what you're looking for. No need to save the image, just copy and paste it. iTunes saves it on its own.

How can I add the logo image for a single item in an RSS feed?

Hello,
I am an administrator of iTunes U at the University of Minnesota.
Before transitioning new public site, we are trying to figure out how to put a logo image into RSS feeds.
We use our server to makes xml codes to create RSS feeds for podcasts.
We successfully put a logo image for a collection in a RSS feed, but putting a logo image for a single item did not work.
Below is the part of the xml code for the logo image for a single item, which is created by our server. I deleted other parts of xml code for your convenience.

Both did not work.
Can anyone help?
Thank you for your help in advance!!

Haven't created too many podcasts, but in this one
http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/connecticut-college-sculpture/id372414245
or
itpc://video.conncoll.edu/d/sculptures/index.xml
before we included the audio files, we added the images in iTunes.
Select the file, then go to File>Get Info, here you can add metadata, and in Artwork add an image.
Then upload this file to your server. Works for audio files anyways.
You don't see the image in the web podcast, but you do in iTunes after you download each item, in "Show item artwork" in lower left. Click on the image and it zooms out.

Changing Displayed Still Images for Podcasts

I just got iWeb up and running today. Everything is working great, except I can't figure out how to change the default thumbnail images that are assigned when I add new video files to my Podcast page.
Several of my video files start with a black frame and fade in, which is causing iWeb to display a black image for the Podcast on the Entries page. Is there an easy way to change this image without re-editing my videos?
I've searched the help menus and the discussion posts here. I was hoping that changing the associated artwork in GarageBand would fix this. I figured out how to add an image and resize it, but when I brought my video file in, the image I had edited added just disappeared and was replaced by a marker symbol.
I know the quick fix in DVD Studio Pro: open the inspector for the button, uncheck "motion", and set the little timeline to the frame you wish to use. Please help!
My other idea is to try to configure a links page for the videos myself, so that I can control the image used and just add a hyperlink. Suggestions?

I had the same problem and looked all over as well. I
ended up reopening my video clips in Final Cut..
adding one frame at the start of my still frame and
then rerendered it out to iweb. it works.. shows up
in the itunes store as well.
I can try that, but that ruins the fade in from black effect. I'm hoping there is an easier way. If not, maybe future versions...

Saving Images for Web

Hi,
Whenever I save images for the web they seem to loose the richness of their color. I've not noticed this until working on a particular project that involves resizing and preparing images of artwork for a website.
The images are in sRGB color profile and I am "saving for web and devices" with ICC checked and optimization at 70. Still, the images look a bit faded overall. Is there anything else that I can do to retain the color?
Thanks!

I am wondering why my advice was any worse than yours. I admit I mistakenly suggested Monitor RGB instead of Windows RGB but as far as I know sRGB is the default for most monitors. This would put them all pretty close. Am I missing something?
I would think that having someone set the images with icc profiles and then adjusting their own browser to correctly display such images would cause the exact same problem you say my solution does. It would give the image editor an impression of the image that nobody else is going to see. I don't know anyone that uses icc profiles for web work. In general I don't think you will find many people who have set their browsers to correctly view images that have these profiles. So it seems like someone that has will be thinking the images look great on their system but not on someone else's.
If someone may eventually repurpose these for print then worry about icc profiles for the printer. It seems like a huge waste of time for anything that is purely on screen.
I am not trying to battle with you over who is correct I just want to understand what your saying.

I hired a commercial artist to create a color image for the cover of a self published book. I want a black and white image for the inside. The commercial artist has not responded to this request. How do I determine the format of the color image, I'm guessing it's Illustrator's formatting but I don't know. How can I find out if Illustrator will open the file and allow alterations? The image opens only in Apple's Pages software?

rons,
It seems that all you have is a raster image, presumable PNG24 or JPEG, in RGB.
It may have been created as raster artwork in Photoshop, or it may have been created as vector artwork with the help of Illy, or as a mixture of vector and raster artwork in either application, or both combined.
If you just need to have a raster representation in black and white based on the current colour image, you may try this, in a new RGB document (View>Smart Guides are your friends):
1) File>Place the image (you may tick Link or untick and have it embedded);
2) Create a rectangle with black fill (R = G = B = 0), at least as large as the image, and place it behind the image (you may ClickDrag with the Rectangle Tool between opposite corners, then Ctrl/Cmd+X+B);
3) Select all and in the Transparnecy palette flyout click Make Opacity Mask with both Clip and Invert Mask ticked.

Setting a "master" image for an album in Coverflow?

Hello all,
Here's one I've been struggling with for some time.
I tend to master all the tracks and images that go into my iTunes myself, and whenever possible I'll try to have as many images from the album art as I can - at least one for each track from the album. The rub is that iTunes seems to randomly select one of these as the "master" image for Coverflow, and I can't tell it to do otherwise. Just now I was working with an album that's 8 tracks long, and I pasted the first image (which is the actual cover) in the box for the first track. The image dutifully appeared in Coverflow. Then, I pasted the second image in the box for track 2, and the Coverflow image was replaced. Pasted the image for track 3, and the Coverflow image stayed on track 2. It stayed on track 2 all the way to the 8th track. I then went back and re-pasted them in different orders, trying different iterations, and it always stubbornly stayed on the image for track2.
As I said, it does this randomly, and sometimes it defaults back to the first image after a while. Often it doesn't, and so I'm stuck with a random image from inside the CD booklet as the "cover" in iTunes.
So the question is simple: is there any way to set a "master" image for an album in iTunes, so that it will appear whenever the album is displayed rather than the image from a particular track?
Also, out of context, is there any way to export just a playlist and its associated information and artwork? Say I've copied a specific playlist's audio from one computer to another and I don't want to go through the tedium of re-entering all the album details and cover art. There seems to be no way to export all that so it can be re-associated with audio files on another system. Am I mistaken? How would I go about doing that?
Thanks much in advance.

If by "default value" you mean you want to automatically infer the value of an attribute (which appear to be what the custom function is doing) then you can just write a rule to do that.
e.g. to infer the value "0" for the attribute "the minimum tax rate", you use the rule:
the minimum tax rate = 0

Setting multiple album images for a group.

I want to put multiple images for CDs that I have (Front, back, inside of booklet, etc). Can I do this for an entire CD or do I need to do each song separately?

You can add multiple album artwork images to multiple tracks at the same time, but not through the Multiple Song Get Info pane. Each time you drag an image onto the Artwork box in this pane, the previous image is erased.
To add multiple images, select your tracks in the main iTunes Window, and make sure that Artwork box under the Source Menu is visible. Then just drag the image you want to add to the tracks onto this pane, but make sure you FIRST add the image you want to appear FIRST. There isn't any way to reorder the images in a group of tracks - that has to be done in the individual track's artwork pane (Get Info>>Artwork tab).

I cant up load the correct size image for my cover

I cant up load the correct size image for my cover...please help

Hello tiffgill,
I recommend reviewing the following guidelines for page images for iTunes U:
When creating your provider art for your iTunes 11 and iOS 6 or later provider page, keep the following in mind:
Only submit artwork you can legally share.
Provider art must be JPEG or PNG with appropriate file extensions (.jpg, .png).
iTunes U Public Site Manager only supports RGB color profiles.
Artwork must be at least 3200 pixels in width and 600 pixels in height with a minimum resolution of 72 dpi, with a maximum file size of 5MB.
You can upload a single piece of art that iTunes U Public Site Manager can use across all platforms and devices (see sample below). If you upload a single piece of art you must also:
Make sure that any text or logo is in the center of the artwork, in the Text/Logo Safe Area.
The Minimum View is 994 x 600 pixels. Texts or logos should not exceed the Minimum View of 994 pixels and should not exceed 400 pixels in height.
Ensure that you do not include any text or logos in the Tag Area, as this area is needed for iTunes-related tags. The Tag Area is part of the Minimum View and 200 pixels in height from bottom of the artwork.
For more information and the iTunes Design Specifications, see https://itunesconnect.apple.com/itc/docs/itunes-design-specs.html.

How to Give an Image for Print and Not Web

So, I have designed a logo for a web site and the site owner wants it for a business card and letterhead. Saving an image for web is easy and I understand all that but how do I prepare a file for a printer? I'm guessing this is just nipping in to the local print shop on the high street.
Sorry for the basic question and I'd be as happy with a link to a tutorial as with the answer!
Thanks
Martin

Saving an image for web is easy...
...Which is why your workflow is backward. Design for print first; repurpose for web. Not the other way 'round.
Proper advice on preparing the artwork for press is dependent upon specifics of the artwork and the printing parameters. You haven't provided any specifics at all. So your question amounts to asking someone to write you a manual on how to prepare artwork for presswork in an online forum post.
Do a Google search for "preparing artwork for offset printing" or some such.

How to pixelate an image for viewing from afar?

Hi
I need to pixelate an image for an outdoor poster site, so that when viewed up close it is very distorted and all the viewer can really make out are large squares; as the viewer moves away the image becomes clearer, so that from a distance the actual subject matter becomes clear. Something like the Marilyn Monroe artwork attached...
I would appreciate any step by step advice on how I might do this?
Thanks in advance guys.
Regards
Tony

Hi,
As mentioned above you can use the mosaic option.
Here is a tutorial that can expand this subject that I found online.

How can I use a JPEG file as a background image for my vi in 8.5

Im working on a vi that I plan on using as part of an alarm system. I would like to use a JPEG file of my house as a background image for the vi, or possibly to just be displayed in a window on the control panel. I have seen people use their own images before, but never looked at what this involved.
Im trying to use the "read JPEG file" vi and the "draw flattened pixmap" vi to accomplish this. The vi does run, but nothing shows on the front panel. If I try to create an indicator from the "new picture" output of the "draw flattened pixmap" vi, I get an empty white window on the front panel.
Any advice?
Thanks
Solved!

the earlier vi (using the JPEG) works fine. just increase the size of the picture control
I figured this was the problem. And to the OP, I'm glad a bitmap worked, but no I didn't mean use any sort of LabVIEW programming at all. I meant open your image in Microsoft Paint, Press ctrl+A to select the whole thing. Then copy the image to the clipboard. Now select your front panel and press ctrl + v to paste it. No programming needed and the image is there. However, if you want to programmatically change it, you will need a picture control.

How to use the same (selection) paths in multiple images for batch processing?

I have a whole bunch of photos I need to batch process, but, when creating an action for this, I stumbled upon the problem that the paths I selected with the pen tool, and saved under the "Paths" tab need to be in every image for to be used in the action. I did try to solve it for some time, but couldn't figure out. Any ideas?
Many Thanks
Carlos

Batch processing usually involves using actions you have recorded. In Action you can insert Path that can be used during processing documents. Path have some size so you may want to only process document that have the same size. Look in the Actions Palette fly-out menu for insert path. It inserts|records the current document work path into the action being worked on and when the action is played it inserts the path into the document as the current work path..
