Add Wikipedia to the list of artwork providers

How about adding wikipedia database to the list of artwork providers. Because mostly i love to see the artwork of the songs rather than the album's and wikipedia provides them in plenty.:-)

Why not  But the option to restrict search for the artwork to the ones of the songs rather than of albums would be enough with existing search providers I believe. Do you find any artwork in Wikipedia that are not found with the predefined search providers in MB 

What about:
- Auto-Tag by Track - search for Artwork of a single song by default (if not found - search for the Artwork of the Album or compilation)
- Auto-Tag by Album - search for Artwork of Album by default

i mean if i have the whole album songs in my music library then about 10 to 12 of those songs having the same cover art would be so boring.~!

Jackuars..no need to search.

when your song is playing run the Artist visualizer...run a few favorites..
then work your way to the Music Bee  Artist Cache folder....find the artist file..it will have a .DAT extension
change the extension to a .JPG...and now you can re size it and use it for  Artwork

@Sarge: Thanks for the info Will try that out.."And thankx for your skins...I'm just loving them" 8)But will that help the artworks to contain either the song name or album name or is going to be some random covers of the artist?
For now what i found is to give the song name in the album column and hit search and then you get the cover arts for the corresponding songs with the song title written on it and then edit the album name manually. But works for only 70% of them

But i have a question....what do i do if the cover arts for some of the songs are not of full size and doesn't take the whole space(230px is what i have set).As some of them only fill half of the max.

Maybe I mis read your original post, but I thought you were searching for something other than the Album cover for a artist.
Because I know sometimes the cover photo is either plain or just sucks.
So what I wrote about is what I do when I just want a decent Artist or Band photo. I use the Artist visualizer to capture those good photos and then I use those as my album cover art. I save them to a folder and then add them to the track tag from my folder.

 
As far as the other part you wrote about the "Size"  that just depends on the  size of the artwork that the server returned to you in the search. the only thing you could do about that is do a  re-search and change possibly a few things in your artist or album field. Like sometimes adding  "the best of" in front of a artist name will bring back a better photo.. or  " Artist Name Greatest Hits" can bring back a different photo.

How about writting a script based on above tip When I click on the Artwork and hit command "Choose picture" the option appears Search in the Artist Cache Folder
