Free covers for your stories! (CLOSED)
yaoyueyi Because of blockades on the computer I use, I can't see the cover... Could you possibly either paste it on https://tiny.cc/WOI-Int2 OR https://hangouts.google.com/group/uFBXzFR34Pj388CJ2 ? cause those are two mediums that no matter where the pic comes from, I should be able to see it if it is pasted as a pic and not a link.;,;.
oof, no more requests :( (btw if I wanted to learn how to do this as it sounds fun and I need one, how would I start?)
yaoyueyi It looks like you tried to on the first link, but I don't see it... access the link again and see if it's only my end if you are okay with doing that, if so then please use the second link if you are willing, if not then maybe try again? cause something (either on my end or your end) did not work right first try.... sorry for the inconvenience :(
TerribleTom as in, how to make a cover for yourself?
if so, I would suggest getting a program such as Photoshop for making graphics. Photoshop does cost money, but there are plenty of alternatives out there for free, such as Gimp. However, I would definitely suggest downloading something rather than using an online program because downloaded ones are simply more... useful? things such as Canva are really, really limited. also, if you're willing to spend money, buying a drawing tablet is really helpful. (I would suggest a Huion because those are cheap & good quality)
from there on, you can google a bunch of tutorials such as how to use PSDs, how to blend, how to do photo manipulation, etc. etc. that'll be really useful for beginners. overall though, I would just say to get familiar with the program you're using. if you're using PS, the program is super complex and it'll probably take you a few weeks to get comfortable using it, especially if you haven't ever touched any other sort of drawing/graphics/art program like Photoshop.
haha hoped that helped! :blush: that's about the best advice I can give for how to start.
DeJeL scroll down on the google docs?

MasterRabbink How did you do your pic? cause of all the pics in this thread, this is the only one I can see as more than a square that looks like it was supposed to be a picture and is about the size of this emogi: :(
yaoyueyi Oh no, I saw this late, sorry I will be retracting it now
TheAdventurer thank you.
yaoyueyi lol, that was the issue, I hadn't looked low enough... thanks.;,;.
the other methods of getting it to me didn't work, but that one did.;,;. thank you.;,;.
also, it may not have been quite what I was going for, but it is much better than what I had and what I could have done... so thank you, I will be using it.;,;.
yaoyueyi I can't reupload the original bc I'm at phone and it's png, I was trying to incorporate the new logo of Qi, but I'm sorry about that, I will be removing it when I wake up
TheAdventurer it's alright; take your time. thank you for noticing!
yaoyueyi I'm really sorry about that >.<
yaoyueyi UPDATE: Reverted it back! Managed to find a service online to convert png to jpg, thank you for the effort again and sorry for the presumptuousness...
BTW your cover was awesome enough that fellow authors are saying if it was officially made... >.<
