It is Possible to Replace the ‘No Album Art’ Image, and We’re Going to Show You How

Posted by Jody Mitoma on March 4, 2008 at 9:15 pm

NoAlbumArt Thanks to bndeac of the iPodTouchFans community, I now have a custom designed ‘No Album Art’ image that displays when a song that is part of an album with no specified album cover is played.

How can I do this?
You can download (or create) any image you’d like and use it on your iPod Touch or iPhone by replacing the file named ‘noartplaceholder.png‘ found in /Applications/MobileMusicPlayer.app when SSH’ing into your iPod Touch or iPhone. Just make sure that, for best quality (no image shrinking), the image you are replacing the default image with, is 320×320 pixels.

 
 

Here is what I created, and am currently using (Involves cussing):

Remember to have fun. The possibilities are near-endless here!

    In iTunes you can just right-click on all of yours songs and select get album artwork, unless this about albums or certain songs like a live song etc. that it cannot find.
