Importing album cover to iTunes

Hi,
I have scanned an Album Cover which is not available through "Get Album Artwork".
Is it possible to import the scanned cover to iTunes and place on the currently blank album cover.
Cheers

Macbook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

You can add artwork a couple of ways. If you're only adding it to one song, drag and drop the art file onto the artwork display space on the left side of your iTunes screen. Another way, which is really helpful if you want to do an entire album at once, is to highlight the songs that you wish to add artwork to (either in their playlist, or in the main iTunes library). Then use the Get Info command from the File Menu (or Apple/Command key plus i). iTunes will ask you if you're sure you want to change information for more than one item. Say yes. In the window that opens you'll see a small box for artwork in the bottom right corner. Drag and drop your new artwork there and hit okay. All of the highlighted files will be updated.

You can add multiple art files to tracks by using the Get Info command on a single track, and then clicking on the Artwork tab at the top of the new window. Just drag and drop multiple pictures. The first image on the left will be the default (and the only one shown on your iPod), but you can click on the triangle at the top of the artwork window of iTunes to scroll through the images.
