Hi, I'm new to wikipedia and just have two questions regarding images.
1. Can an album cover be used in more than one article? eg. used in song infoboxes, if already being used in the album article?
2. Is there a maximum album image size that can be used on wikipedia?
I haven't been able to find an answer to this so far.

You can use it as many times as is absolutely necessary. There isn't a size limit, but for album covers, they should be as small as possible.
1) You need to justify each use (there isn't a limit) with a fair use rationale. See [[WP:NFCC]] (type these into the to search bar, without the "[[" and "]]", and click go) and [[WP:FURG]].
2) The smaller the better. There might be a maximum; I'm not sure, but really, try and keep it as small as possible. Large album cover images can be tagged with {{non free reduce}}.
You can also ask these sort of questions at [[Wikipedia:Help desk]]. Hope this helps.
