I've never made a downloadable fanmix, just a few personal ones, but I can tell you what I would do:

1. Put the songs you want in a folder. (You could probably use something like Audacity to change the files to mp3s if you need to.) Open them in iTunes and edit the songs' properties so they all have the same album name. Be sure to check the 'part of a compilation' box.

2. Download GIMP. (It's like Photoshop, but free!) Mess around with it. There's tutorials on their website, but it should be easy to crop a picture to CD size and write your fab album name on the cover. Download some cool fonts, too!

3. Whatever songs you think works should be the songs you use. If you like it; that's what matters. You could see if anyone's made a tribute vid for the team on Youtube and see if you like the songs they use.

4. You will be surprised. I once found a fanmix for a very obscure pairing in one of my fandoms that I loved but didn't get too much attention, and then a week later I found another one! Post it in fanmix and/or a baseball comm and people might flock to it. Good luck!

Forgot to add: After you complete your album art, save the file as a jpg or whatever and put it in the folder as well. Copy the jpg file, right click the song on iTunes, click 'get info' and paste the cover under the 'artwork' tab. (I've changed the CD cover to almost all of my songs; it's fandom city on my iPod!)

Thanks for the advice! I already have GIMP (I use it to make secrets), but I hadn't used the tutorials before. I guess this won't be quite as daunting as I thought.
