Cover art not displaying correctly in iTunes

Hello


My cover art is not displaying correctly in iTunes, it is displaying with a black background and jagged edges - https://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/born-to-kick-arse-podcast/id1097445993?mt=2


It should look like this (white background, clearer, crisper) - http://borntokickarse.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/iTunes-logo.png




How can I fix this?


Thanks!

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

Your image is a PNG in RGB with an alpha channel. The surround area above and below the logo is transparent:

If you flatten the alpha channel the transparent area is purple. I imagine what is happening in the Store page is that the transparency is letting through a black background. You need to flatten the image to remove the transparency and convert the purple to white. When you have changed it you should change the filename, upload it and change the URL in the feed, as otherwise the Store, which caches the image, will have no way of knowing it's changed. It can take some days for the change to appear.
