    So in Windows Media Player 11 for Vista, no matter what size picture I copy to paste as album art, it is always the same small size when viewing the "Now Playing" tab. Any ideas as to what affects this? Sometimes when I download music from Mediafire and such that has album art in with the .rar file, it will come out much bigger under "Now Playing", but whenever I use the paste album art feature it shrinks it down quite small. Any suggestions appreciated, thanks a bunch.

    I had the same issue with wmp on my cellphone, I believe the problem will be the same here. The image had to be a specific size, if it was too small or large it would resize to its standard size, you will have to research to find the appropriate size then just size the images accordingly.

    Hopefully that will fix the problem
