@shahidwiggins 4 месяца назад

Great video!! What would be the difference in everything you showed in this video if it was a hardcover?

@bookcoversdiy 4 месяца назад

Thanks! Not too much, actually. You would still go through the same steps using the cover template generator, but the template would be slightly different. There is a wider gap between the spine and the front/back cover, and the top and bottom have larger margins. Here is a link to Amazon KDP where it shows a sample of the hardcover template: kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GDTKFJPNQCBTMRV6 Hope that helps!

@Abusii.m 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for this. It really helped, just a quick question, are there any specifications for the inside of the book, like the pages. ❤

@bookcoversdiy 9 месяцев назад

You're very welcome! I'm so glad the video helped you! Yes, there's a trim size and different margin sizes depending on the book size and number of pages. Here's the link to the KDP page with the charts: kdp.amazon.com/en_US/help/topic/GVBQ3CMEQW3W2VL6

@simondowd5648 4 месяца назад

Thanks so much for this. Could I just ask; what is involved in copyrighting my book? How do I do it? Does it cost anything? Sorry if these are simple and basic questions but I’m just starting out. Thank you once again.

@bookcoversdiy 4 месяца назад

You're very welcome! That's a great question! The moment you write and publish your story, it is considered copyrighted, but you can also register your work with the U.S. government to make it official. Here is a link to the gov website: www.copyright.gov/registration/literary-works/. Hope that helps!

@WinterHawk 4 месяца назад

Greetings, well you did make an excellent video, but, after I spent hours designing my book cover, I saved it, by hitting save under, File. When I logged back in, it was gone. I don't have to tell you how upset I am. Any ideas what might have happened?

@bookcoversdiy 4 месяца назад

I'm so sorry to hear that! Was this in Canva? That's so strange since Canva auto-saved every few minutes during the design process. Check to see if it saved under a different project name. Sometimes that happens.

@michelleclayton8543 2 месяца назад

Okay but how would I print it myself and bind it myself at home after it's saved to my computer?

@bookcoversdiy 2 месяца назад

I'm sorry, but I don't know anything about book binding. This tutorial teaches you how to design a book cover to submit to Amazon KDP for printing.

@fredarobertsonhall1532 7 месяцев назад

Hi is this the free Canva or Canva Pro?

@bookcoversdiy 6 месяцев назад

So sorry, your comment got lost in the feed. You can follow with either. The only difference is if you select a Pro image for your cover (you'll be charged), but I show how to remove the Pro images in your search results, so you only select free images and won't be charged. I also have a brand NEW updated tutorial on this same subject for 2024 since Canva updated its features to make it more user-friendly.

I'm with @thereaTylerDurden, I have seen so many how to do cover videos, and they are confusing as much as they are dumb, but your tutorial is spot on, I was almost ready to give up, I have seen that many videos it's not funny, but thanks to your video I was able to finally get my first cover done, book is all up and ready, just waiting on Amazon to approve it, wish me luck.. All other tutorial videos could learn a lot from you, I think for them it's all about like and subscribe just to get those few extra ad dollars to their name, if their video is not helpful, it's not their lost, as they would have earnt some money through adverts. Keep up the good work. A+++++ all the best for 2024

@zro_dfects 6 месяцев назад

@@bookcoversdiy Hi again, just a heads up that my book just got published literally 30 seconds ago as I received the Amazon email, and this is only possible because of this video, so again, I csn't thank you enough, I mean it's just a basic coloring book for kids which I have a licence to sell as I am not really an artist, so I went and got a POD licence, basically to test this thing out, but got stuck with the cover layout and sizing etc, hence why i ended up here, I do however create my own puzzles though as I have done so for many years for people worldwide, all by hand mind you, no generators or coding, but i can create them super quick, I can create around 1000+ different style puzzles that can be found all over the world, i might be the only single person in the word that can create them all myself,, these are such puzzles like mazes in any shape or form, logical, anagrams, code crackers any size sudoku grid or shape and well beyond including my own puzzles never been made before, so with these I would like to create a more professional cover, which i can now because of this video, so I know I thanked you like a million times but that is still not enough, keep up the great work, and look forward to seeing what other videos you will make. Take care.
