I've got a large number of vinyl LPs that have been ripped as FLACs, to which there is no cover art available on Amazon. I thought that it would be fun to add my own 300x300 photos as cover art to these flacs, but can't work how to do it in MP3Tag - can anyone help?

Load the files into MP3tag  
Select the files that should get the same photo.  
Presst Alt-T to open the Extended Tags dialog  
On the right you see the current images (probably none)  
Klick on the "New" button for images.  
Navigate to the file you want to include as picture and select it, press OK.  
Press OK again to close the dialogue.  
Done.

You can select single files or multiple files and drag the cover art from your windows explorer window to the window in mp3tag.

Then CTRL + S (Save)

I find this much easier as it's basically drag + drop and then save.
