Can someone help me with adding a single artist cover photo to all songs of a certain artist. What I want is to display the artist cover when I explore through the category of artists.

1.) Load your files into Mp3tag  
2.) Select all the files with a certain artist  
3.) Drag & Drop your artist cover to the cover panel on the left side  
4.) Right click on such a cover and "Set cover type", maybe to "Artist" or "Lead Artist"

Whether this cover will be displayed depends only on the playing software (not Mp3tag).
