I see above that dro finally had time to respond to this thread. He is usually very good at quickly responding to most posted messages (and things he is told about via other ways). He is doing this (developing WACUP and managing this website) all by himself. He is a former developer for Winamp and is fully devoted to improving WACUP.
Yes, as you noted, help files are often not very helpful. Trial and error working with apps is often the best way to learn what they do. But you must be careful and make good notes, because "trial and error" can really screw things up! I suggest you don't stop with the first thing that seems to work. Keep looking for other, and maybe better, ways to handle things. I'm retired with plenty of time to "play" with stuff and using this approach is fun for me.
WACUP users use different ways handle album cover images. This is why dro has provided so many ways to provide support. Having multiple options is both the "good and bad" of working with WACUP. I like doing things "my way", instead of being forced to use a single "so called" standard. You will eventually find a method that works well for you.
Have a great weekend.
FUN FACTS:
When using WACUP, right-click on everything. This will often result in a pop-up menu providing additional commands associated with the thing clicked on.
dro likes using the keyboard instead of "point & click" with a mouse. So, there are keyboard shortcuts provided for most commands. Don't ask me what they all are, someone else will have to provide that info. I'm mostly a "point & click" type user. dro has also provided a way for users to create their own custom keyboard shortcuts.
Similar to Winamp, the things WACUP can do can be expanded by using plug-ins. Many of the plug-ins developed for Winamp will work with WACUP. dro is often willing to work with the popular ones that don't (when possible), to get them working.
