How to change or set album art in an MP3 file?

An image speaks more than thousand words.

Truly said. You may say hundreds of words to describe what your song is about, or simply you can let a picture do that job. That's why album arts or covers are given so much importance. When you play some music an awesome cover art may set your mood high which may enlighten the positive impacts of that song in your mind. The opposite occurs too. So sometimes you may have to change the album cover of a certain song that you don't like or may be set a new album cover to your own creations. In default all media players do not allow you to do so. But there are few of them in the market. I found a bunch of them. Here is one of them, which I think is really cool.

The JetAudio Multimedia Player:

Yes, it may not be so popular, yet an awesome player on the go. I was using these from some days and it proved out to be a faithful software, that can play almost all types of media formats without crashing even once. Picture quality is better than some 'Popular' software. Besides, it satisfies the our main criteria of this post i.e. it can change album art of any mp3 music file. Cool, no? Visit their official site to get it for free.

So how to do it?

First of all install the downloaded software. After installation open an audio file with the player. For me, I'm playing Wake Me Up by Avicii from the album True. It's not that I don't like the cover art, but that's one of my favorite songs, so I decided to go with it (sorry Avicii!).
Anyway after opening the file, click on the little arrow at the upper-left corner of the player and click on 'Video Window On'. See the screen snap bellow.

This will pop a video window out, that looks as same as the main player. Now right click anywhere on the video window and click on 'Edit Tag' or simply press F4.

After the click another dialogue box kinda thing will appear. In that box go to the picture tab. Up there you'll notice an image uploader. Press Browse and select any JPG file of your choice. Refer to the picture bellow:

After all's done, click on apply and then on OK. That's it, you're done! Now play it with any media player, even on your cell phone, it'll look the same, the way you wanted it to.

So, it's all done. You've just learnt how to change a cover art of any music file. Now go and try it of your own and don't forget to share it to your known ones.
