Sorry, no way. The mouse is able to point and click, but no dragging anyway.

Are you trying to drag the url or the image itself?

I see two large pictures, no urls. I can choose 'copy' and the other "copy to" features from the context menu, that's all.

Okay, this is strange. It works with both Firefox and IE7 here.

Hmm, it's rather normal and secure to my PC.
To switch the beaviour:
Internet Optionen.
Sicherheitseinstellungen.
Ziehen und Ablegen oder Kopieren und Einfügen von Dateien = Eingabeaufforderung ==\> Drag&Drop no.
Ziehen und Ablegen oder Kopieren und Einfügen von Dateien = Aktivieren ==\> Drag&Drop yes.
Aus Sicherheitsgründen möchte ich das auch weiter auf 'Eingabeaufforderung' eingestellt lassen.
Because of security aspects I do not want to enable this risk while surfing on the internet.
One gram in the scale to implement a PutClipboardImage routine.

Edit:
Look into this direction:
Use something like GetClipboardFormatNameA from the USER32.DLL mit CFID=3 (CF\_METAFILEPICT) or CFID=2 (CF\_BITMAP), determine all the formats currently available on the clipboard.
```
; Open the clipboard for access.
If !!DllCall("USER32.DLL",long:"OpenClipboard",long:hWndOwner)
; Check if this data format is available.
If !!DllCall("USER32.DLL",long:"IsClipboardFormatAvailable",long:iFormatID)
; Get the memory handle to the data.
hMem = DllCall("USER32.DLL",long:"GetClipboardData",long:iFormatID)
If !!hMem
; Get the size of this memory block.
iSize = DllCall("KERNEL32.DLL",long:"GlobalSize",long:hMem)
If !!iSize
; Get a pointer to the memory.
iPtr = DllCall("KERNEL32.DLL",long:"GlobalLock",long:hMem)
If !!iPtr
; Allocate a buffer to hold the data.
...
; Copy from the pointer into the binary buffer.
iResult = DllCall("KERNEL32.DLL",long:"RtlMoveMemory",long:iptrBuff,long:iPtr,long:iSize)
; Unlock the memory block.
iResult = DllCall("KERNEL32.DLL",long:"GlobalUnlock",long:hMem)
; Now get the data from buffer.
...
EndIf
EndIf
EndIf
EndIf
DllCall("USER32.DLL",long:"CloseClipboard")
EndIf
```
Note:
This is a possible way, not the solution.

Thank you so much. I really didn't know that my suggestion would be received so well. I think I'm going to come around this place a lot more often.

@Florian
Hello.
I was wondering, in the next version of MP3Tag,
if we can choose the position of 'Cover Art' in the Tag Panel,
ie. what if I want the 'Cover Art' to be at the very top of the panel ?
Sometimes, I am using MP3Tag in a smaller window,
and the 'Cover Art' at the bottom, gets hidden.
