    Got this from one of our Kontakt expert:

    Download (from the Library’s manufacturer) or create a custom tile for your imported Library. The image file must be 134x66 pixels (or a multiple), and in .png format:

    Add the Library into Kontakt 7 using the Import Content Function (making a note of its name)

    The imported folder will appear as a Library with a generic tile:

    Close Kontakt 7. Using your file explorer, navigate to the following folder:

    a. Windows - C:\Users\Public\Documents\NI Resources\image

    b. MacOS - /Users/Shared/NI Resources/imageWithin the ‘image’ folder, create a new folder with the same name as your imported Library.

    Move your custom artwork .png file to the newly created folder, and rename it to MST_artwork.png

    Please note: on occasion, it may be necessary to delete the entire NI Resources folder, promoting a rebuild - for example in the case https://support.native-instruments.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018591137-Die-Produkt-Bilder-fehlen-in-meinem-Komplete-Kontrol-Maschine-2-Browser. It is recommended that you backup any manually created folders and files within NI Resources, should you be required to delete these in the future.

    Upon next launch of Kontakt, your imported Library will be displayed with it’s custom tile.
