Good to have your company, Ricard. Price varies wildly and depends on which publisher you're working with. Also, it's an uber-competitive market now that there are so many imaginative and creative PhotoShop artists around. Original art is a different thing. My own indie publishing house has a staff artist and designer now. In the past, when we commissioned cover art or needed to use copyrighted artwork or a photographic image, we usually worked on a royalty basis and only very occasionally paid an up-front fee. Good luck and best wishes. Neil
