Kind of neat trick I found.

I don't know if this is the right section, but whatever. If anyone uses iTunes and sometimes has problems with artwork loading or finding it on Google, here's a trick you might like.

1. Go into iTunes and find the album cover you want.

2. Right click on the artwork and click ​copy link.

3. Go to your web browser and enter the URL (it should bring you to the iTunes online store).

4. Right click on that album cover and click open image in new tab/window or copy image address.

5. Once you have the image (which will be very tiny) go to the URL

(ex. http://a1.mzstatic.com/us/r1000/026/Music/b3/bb/a1/mzi.afpbzvwr.170x170-75.jpg)

and change the bold text to 600x600 or 1200x1200 (only these two resolutions will work)

6. Enjoy high-quailty album artwork that you may not be able to find on Google.

Most of the new albums already have the covers in 1200x1200, even though the iTunes standard size is 600x600. This is possibly being done because Apple intends to update the iTunes Store in the future?

Same thing! Had some songs that I could never find the artwork for.

Thanks for sharing this unpetitmonstre!
