Does Audacity store Album Art ?
IF SO, does it store in a MP3 file itself ? if it's possible..
IF SO, can we store more than 1, like the Front and Back covers ?
IF NOT, what do we suggest ?

AFAIK there is no capability to store album art in WAV or MP3 files - I apply album art once the items are in my iTunes library and the iTunes library rather than the MP3/AAC files is the repository for the album art files. These do trnsfer from iTunes to iPod - can't speak for other MP3 players.
BTW: iTunes is a neat way of printing CD covers from the album artwork and playlists for CD jewel boxes ...

Well hello again my friend

heh!
I mentioned in the other thread about Tags, that I came upon this mp3tagtools.
I used it to store a front and back cover to an mp3, and then played it in Windwos Media player 11 I think it's 11, AND it did show the front cover in the playlist area, I havent really
searched to see why it didn't show back cover or how. but in that program you can see it does ad to the size of the file a few bytes, in the header portion.
I often wonder if this might contribute or be a problem when playing on players or home stereos.
But I guess not, it might just over look it.
