  Hello- This is really confusing. I’m using WordPress as the feed for my podcast. The feed seems to work fine but the main image doesn’t show up in iTunes or Stitcher radio, where audience members access my podcast. As you can see, the image appears in the actual feed (top right corner):
  http://feeds.feedburner.com/wordpress/QFKv

  But it doesn’t show up elsewhere and Stitcher says it has to be an issue on the feed’s end. Not their side of things. So that means WordPress.
  So, what to do? I’m at a complete loss. Help!

  Hi there,

  I’ve been digging in to this issue and the only issue which seems to consistently be reported as a reason why your image might not be appearing is that it might not be big/detailed enough to be picked up by all services.

  iTunes recommends in its documentation that the image be at least 1400 x 1400 pixels.

  It also specifically mentions that any changes to images can take several days to propagate across its servers. So if you’ve recently added or changed the image, that could also be why!

  Thanks, tried increasing the dpi to 1600×1600, as you suggested. Still no dice. I guess I’ll wait a few days to see if anything changes but Stitcher says it should only take a couple hours to update changes.
