Album Art does NOT display properly
saratoga:
Progressive jpeg isn't supported at all.
You can can change image formats using an image editor.

For me it looks light grey with a white foreground. And parts of it are shown on the right side of the cover instead of the left side.
Simply resaving it fixes the issue for me. No need to convert to 8bit.

These are pictures I took of both Foobar and my Sansa Clip Zip showing the same albums:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v175/Foebane/AA2.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v175/Foebane/AA3.jpg
Notice how the Mozart image is all grey and washed out on the Clip, unlike Foobar which has the nice black surrounding the composer.
The Bryan Ferry album looks about right, although it's not quite black, but a very dark shade of green for Ferry himself.
The Cat Stevens cover has a lot of black areas, and this is reflected in the Clip.
Notice the dark blue status bar at the top on the Clip, this is how dark the display can get. Also notice the flicker on the Clip's screen.
ZincAlloy:
Only the Mozart one has a problem. The others look fine to me.
This version of the cover works flawlessly on my player (other than the black/blue gradient looking really messed up in image viewer): http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41yV53QAEyL._SL500_AA280_.jpg
So it must be something specific to your file.
Edit: Maybe you have a really large version of that cover on your player and that grey haze that your seeing results from a lot of dithering?
EditEdit: Nope, that's not it. Just tried a 1200x1200px version.

You're right, a simple resave fixes it. Has anyone figured out a way to make an image that looks odd? I'm curious what settings are used.
