.nomedia for your music with images showing in gallery

I think I've been able to solve this somewhat.... For those who have an audio file and an image(in your music folder) and you don't want the image showing up in the gallery but you do want it showing in your music directory(album art), you will need to go into the folder with the picture-create a folder(i call it 'pic')-put the image in that folder along with a '.nomedia'. Make sure that the music file is not in the new folder but the new folder is within the overall folder.... Confused? Music/U2/The Joshua Tree/Pic/Image and .nomedia file - Hope this helps

It still shows your image with the music\artist in the media player, but now doesn't show in the gallery. You do not need to rename the music folder(like you would if you were just adding a .nomedia file) because your adding a new folder all together.
