New cover?
I also love this picture. My big problem now is fighting the stupid Lulu template.
I'll use this. It actually fits the name a little better, anyways. I didn't know about an old cover generator. I just have the download they supply, with the orange and blue border thingies.
Yeah, that template is a pain. Does it give you the option to use the "old" cover generator? On that one, you just upload a "new image" for the cover, so your picture smacks right on there as long as it's the right size.
It does center right, which is how I got this. I cropped the orange border. Was I supposed to do that, or leave it there for them to mess with? That's my biggest worry.
I can't answer that question, because I'm not familiar with how to use the new template. It looks like the control panel of the freaking space shuttle.
Gotcha. If necessary, I can just shoot Lulu an email asking about it. Their provided directions aren't so hot. And GIMP won't let me hide the blue and orange layers, like Lulu suggests.
If you're less happy with that alternative piece, I can also commission something for the WhiteBox cover.
ReplyDeleteAs to the template, try using the "old" cover generator, which I think is way, way easier. I can walk you through it if you want.

ReplyDeleteI meant I could walk you through the old cover generator..... :)
