Wow! I thought about making a thumbnail for every chapter, but that's a lot of work, so kudos to you!

I honestly like both of your covers, especially the one with the candles. I also enjoy experimenting around with photo manipulation =)

Thanks for sharing with me!

I like it. It has a clean look to it with the title spaced out from the graphic, but I don't have an idea of what the story is about though.

The hair looks really good!

For your banner, I would use a different color for the middle. Reading the words in orange is hard. You can also try making it bigger, but your color scheme should also be consistent. Have you tried using black for the "Background People?"

Haven't tried it yet, but I'll send you the product when it's okay.
Thanks for the tips!

I loved the font you used! Can you tell me what font it is?

"Factory" is in Playlist Script.
"Drugs, Violence, and Rediculousness." is in Permanent Marker.

I can't draw for the life of me, so I use photoshop and stockphoto websites

You're going to need a square image for the cover on Tapas, and the banner at the top needs to be much wider.

These are the numbers:
Thumbnail (cover): 300x300 px (I make it at 800x800 and then resize to 300)
Series banner (at the top of the pages): 1280x460 px
Custom ad banner (at the side of your chapters): 280x180 px

Thanks! I'm trying to get better at making graphics, so I want to practice with different fonts.

So far it seems fine, but I would try to make the title bigger. Or, if possible, try to focus the cover more on the foot since that's where the title is.

Here's the cover I was thinking of if I managed to get my stories publishes as a short story collection

My cover is symbolic of how different paths meet at the middle, kind of like how my short stories will eventually be connected.

It ended up looking like a mask too, which I found pretty cool considering each story is told in someone else's eyes.

My story is Behind the Light, so I wanted my novel cover to be symbolic, something with contrasting light and dark. I know the first one is kind of hard to read, but I liked the contrasting colors of black and white.

Ooh, I can't help but notice that the text is a bit of a difficulty in these images and I have a tip that might help!
I'd recommend making all the text black but giving it a white outline around it... Or the other way around depending on which you think looks better.
I hope that helps! Not sure if you'll think it's a good idea or not but it's worth mentioning.

MariMontoya 2017-11-15 16:48:51 UTC #39

Thanks for the tip! I'll try it out.
