    Riiiight...

    OK, well that's an album or single cover image made by any random artist the record company saw fit to employ.

    It's also (until such point as you are ready to actually SELL something) the least important part of making music...

    Ha, this isn't really a question about making music as much as it is a question about selling it.

    I think those pictures are called Thumbnails :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:, they're used to categorize all types of crap on the internet. And often include embedded links.

    Making those falls under graphic design. Totally unrelated to music except where marketing is concerned, and much more computer oriented. Get some practice in with Photoshop and Illustrator if you want to get involved there. :slight_smile:
