Really way to design your own book covers!!

I found instructions to make your own book cover and gave it a shot.

CREATE YOUR DEBUT YA COVER

1 – Go to “Fake Name Generator” or click http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/
The name that appears is your author name.

2 – Go to “Random Word Generator” or click http://www.websitestyle.com/parser/randomword.shtml
The word listed under “Random Verb” is your title.

3 – Go to “FlickrCC” or click http://flickrcc.bluemountains.net/index.php
Type your title into the search box. The first photo that contains a person is your cover.
(Use this instead of regular flickr because these are photos that can legally be reprodcuced.)

4 – Use Photoshop, Picnik, or similar to put it all together. Be sure to crop and/or zoom in.

If you create a cover, let me know – I’m going to post a gallery.

That's awesome! Our computers at work don't have photoshop or printshop; I made a book cover on Microsoft word, but I can't figure out how to save just the picture. It's not as good as yours anyway!
