Unable to collect Artwork

I have assembled by music files as below, but my subsonic does not automatically collect the artwork and lyrics.

Even when trying to run the 'Update Search Index Now', my artwork remains undownloaded.

What is wrong?

4.5 (build 2384) – August 10, 2011 - jetty-6.1.x, java 1.6.0_20, Linux (29.9 MB / 54.4 MB) on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS

Ah, that is the directory structure of where my mp3 files are stored.

I was under the impression that subsonic uses the directory structure to gather the artwork.

Hmm! I cannot see any image files in there :?
If you have a image file called cover.xxx it will use that if not it will try to use the 1st embedded art (in tags) that it finds.

There are no images or jpgs in my directories that hold the mp3 files. I was hoping that subsonic would automatically fetch all the artwork for me. Does it do this?

Or, do i have to manually locate and download it all manually.
