Change album art in Android

Hello friends, I bought a new Samsung Galaxy Y , and I faced one problem that is really weird. That phone has built in feature of scanning the Album Art from the folder, and showing them as the background of the music player. I liked it, but when I tried placing another image in that folder the new image did not appear instead, the old image appeared. So I removed the memory card, again inserted it but it didn't work. Finally I found a fix : 1) Connect your cellphone to computer / Download Root Explorer and perform the following steps. 2) Delete all contents from Android\data\com.android.providers.media\thumbs 3)  You're done. 4) Place the desired image to the folder, you wanna change the album art of. 5) Open Music Player. That's it If you have any difficulty, feel free to ask.........
