zackbuffo, what does this issue have to do with the glitch being documented here?
This report belongs elsewhere. Thread hijack.

To display them correctly, WA should be able to cope with the "forbidden" characters in Windows that show up in ID3 tags
and don't appear in album art filenames.
Did you search for an answer before posting?

-Improved: Album Art: %album%.jpg path cleaning. Retrieval service now replaces illegal characters in the Album name by using the same naming convention as cd ripping for saving the cover filename. i.e.
? * | are replaced by _ (underscore)
/ \ : are replaced by - (hyphen)
" is replaced by '
< is replaced by (
> is replaced by )
Examples:
Album Name: Greatest Hits: Why?
= cover filename: Greatest Hits_ Why-.jpg
Album Name: Vol. 1: "\Bleh/" <|Blah|>
= cover filename: Vol. 1- '-Bleh-' (_Blah_).jpg*
zackbuffo, I speculate your filenames do NOT comply with the above naming convention. Mine that do, handle a ":" in the Album name just fine.
