So I bought my firt ipod today, the photo. Just wondering is their a way to place an image of the artist? so if I play the artist 50 cent and I click on in the club his picture will show up with the song playing. Is there a way to do this or no?

Viewing album artwork on iPod photo
Did you know that iPod photo can display the album artwork for the song that's playing?

To enjoy this feature, just make sure the "Display album artwork on your iPod" preference is selected in iTunes before you update your iPod photo.

1. Select your iPod photo in iTunes.
2. From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences (Windows: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences).
3. Click the iPod icon to select the iPod preference pane.
4. Select the "Display album artwork on your iPod" checkbox.
5. Click OK to close the Preferences.

Note: This checkbox only appears in the the iTunes 4.7 preferences window when an iPod photo is selected. De-selecting this option does not remove artwork from the music files in your library or on the iPod

Instead of choosing the picture for every song the artist has is there a way I could just make the picture appear for every song of that artist? do you know what I mean?

Yea, just type the artist name in the search bar while in your itunes library (in itunes), and hit Ctrl+A (make sure the artwork is set for selected song), and drag the photo into the album artwork section in the bottom left of itunes.
