Design Tool Features


Our online cover design tools can be used from any web browser:

  • Select from hundreds of clipart images or upload your own.
  • Select a layout from a variety of design templates.
  • Nominate the text to display as title, author, etc.
  • Manipulate colour selections.
  • Add/select an overlay image.
  • Create a full size cover image (450 x 270) pixels with thumbnail.
  • Download your images or send them by email.
  • Designs are saved to your account for later use/editing.
  • Images that you upload remain your property.
  • Your designs and images are protected by login.
  • This service is free to use without limitation.

Oversized images will be automatically resized and cropped according to your selected area. Images used for backgrounds must be at least 450 pixels high by 270 pixels wide to prevent the void from being filled with black.

Background images and cover images


New images can be uploaded for both full background images and featured middle images, or you can select from the 100 odd stock images and textures already provided. Any images can be uploaded, even images straight from your digital camera, as you will be able to select all or partial areas of the image and have them cropped to size and automatically adjusted for web use. All images are full size, as they appear in real life. For example the normal paperback sized is used which is 314 x 507 pixels (10.5 cm wide x 17.8 cm high).

Copyright, image stock and shared images


Images that you upload are not available to other users if you have an account to which they can be assigned. Otherwise all images uploaded as anonymous users may be available to all other users. The image stock provided by the Book Cover Designer belongs to the public domain and are royalty free.
