I think there are multiple problems with cover art feature.

**404 Error in Picard**  
I also opened a thread here because of 400 Errors in Picard: [Red CD / circle on edited releases / 404 for archive.org requests - #2 by rdswift](https://community.metabrainz.org/t/red-cd-circle-on-edited-releases-404-for-archive-org-requests/336559/2) I also created a bug ticket but it looks like that project isn’t maintained [https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/CAA-104](https://tickets.metabrainz.org/browse/CAA-104) ? The bug is open since October. Also all the other bugs in this project. By now I put the picture with mp3Tag tool manually after editing in Musicbrainz. With Picard it’s still work only infrequently.  
UPDATE: he requests a index.json document, thats doesn’t exist. This is the problem.  
`E: 18:55:21 CAA JSON error: Error downloading https://ia801504.us.archive.org:443/16/items/mbid-d57eac86-a8f5-43b1-b201-80c1ebc0be1f/index.json - server replied: Not Found`

**Pictures are uploaded but not processed**  
Like this edit I did 30 hours ago [Release “Return to Samoa” by Angry Samoans - Cover art - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/release/a90dc100-26ef-4a6a-af5e-f02625d98717/cover-art) Could be, that this error has to do with first problem.  
UPDATE: Should be a other problem. For example this not short time ago edited release [Release “Big Band” by John Tesh - Cover art - MusicBrainz](https://musicbrainz.org/release/d57eac86-a8f5-43b1-b201-80c1ebc0be1f/cover-art) has all processed versions (200px, 500px and original) but in Picard I get still 404 message.

**Any red error message in web interface on uploading**  
Round about every 10th updload fails for me. Than I have to click upload again. Sometimes once, sometimes several times..  
UPDATE: also described here: [Random "⚠ Error uploading image" - #4 by thwaller](https://community.metabrainz.org/t/random-error-uploading-image/343615/4)

**And now?**  
Could be, that there are still more problems. The question ist - who will fix the bugs. Who is the maintainer?

Look also on this post:

> [@Random "warning Error uploading image"](https://community.metabrainz.org/t/random-error-uploading-image/343615/5):
>
> For future reference, [here](http://monitor.archive.org/stats/s3.php#3h) you can check the status of the Cover Art Archives server. If you see a red line in the top-left graph, the server is experiencing difficulties. The only thing you can do in that case is wait until it is fixed.
