Are you ready to market your book online?
Browsing the internet you may have noticed how authors are displaying their books not only as 3D hardcover or paperback versions but also on mobile devices. If this is something you would be keen to do then I would suggest the easiest way to accomplish this is to use an online tool brought to you by DIYbookcovers.com
THE HOW TO ...
1. Go to http://diybookcovers.com/3Dmockups/
STEP 1
2. Select the tab according to whether you require a SINGLE view of your book, or a COMPOSITE view such as shown above.
3. Select the graphic that best suits your requirement. Remember there are paperback and hardcover options available. NB: be sure to not select hardcover if your book is only available in paperback.
4. Once you have selected your desired look press the orange NEXT button at the top right.
STEP 2
5. Use the BROWSE button to locate your front cover graphic. (You will also need to upload the spine if the angle shown in the graphic requires it). Now press UPLOAD.
Watch the progress bar to check the % uploaded before you press NEXT.
STEP 3
6. Beneath your cover you will see two orange buttons: PNG and JPG. The PNG is a transparent background version, whilst the JPG has a white background. You can choose both of them to have both options available.
7. If you wish to try another view press BACK button until you reach the view tabs and select a different option. If you press NEXT again your last cover upload will still be in effect so press NEXT and save again.
It is as easy as that! No fuss Mockup and 3D covers!
Thank you to DIYbookcovers.com for making such an easy to use tool to alleviate an otherwise time-consuming activity.
