Things you might want to try with a couple of the jpgs that won't
display:

Edit them with a graphics editor: do a save-as to another format (bmp
or tif).  Open the new image and do a save-as back to jpg and see if
the re-saved images show up after a rescan.  If they do, you might want
to consider using a freeware utility like jhead and a batch script to
strip out cruft that might be lurking in the jpgs that makes them
unpalatable to SlimServer.

Also, you might try renaming a folder.jpg or two to "Album Title.jpg",
except, have it reflect the actual album title.  Then add %ALBUM to 
the artwork file name format field in Server Settings->Interface.

Lastly, if you are using flac as your audio file format, consider
embedding the jpg into the flac files. Metaflac will do it and you
could craft a script to mass-embed you whole library in one go.  I'm
embedding all my album art and I have yet to see SlimServer fail to
pickup the artwork (except for flacs with diacritic characters in the
file name, but that is another matter.)
