I know there are programs around like CD Label maker, etc but what I am asking is, how can you make those customed ones like I see lots of pirated cds and DVDs and they really make a lot of good covers, pictures were taken or were screenshots of the movie thats in the cd, and many more effects.

Is there any program that can easily do this besides photoshop?

Thanks

GIMP, paintshop pro or any other photoshop type app. I wouldn't say that they do it easily though, I mean it is far more upto the person using the program than the actual software... filters can only do so much.

Something like Ilustrator might also be usefull for adding text, tables, etc. especially for the back cover.

Nero cover designer does a fair job for beginners, you can add your own pic and it'll put the track list on the back for you

There is no program that has a one button wonder...what i mean is, u can expect to have a program that at a click of a button, makes a random, amazing piece of art for you lol..Photoshop is the best 2d graphics program there is, but u have to be experienced at using it..not anybody can use it.
and its probably one of the easiest programs to use aswell.
thats what u should try out.

As far as Nero , doesn't that have to have Nero to be used? You cant print out a Nero cover without Nero on your system can you?? I use EZCD for my own covers sometimes and They wont save to jpegs.
As far as coverart goes... Might want to look for covers made by others so you dont have to bother yourself.
Im not sure if you can post a ISO for a cover and have it sent on the board??

Why not just go to www.cdcovers.cc and download the cover you want. Then use any old image viewer to display & print it.
