I don't have any stock image accounts--they cost money, and since I don't make any money off my covers, I don't PAY any money for anything that goes into them (other than the initial purchase of my graphics program years ago).

I'll be posting a tutorial for Base Images next (very shortly!), so stay tuned :)
