Hello friends,
Hope your Sunday is all that you hoped it would be! I can't say I accomplished much today, but a lazy day once is a while is just what one needs, don't you think?
I am pleased to announce that the new cover for my recently published 'Safe In His Arms' series box set has been published to replace the temporary one which I had been using. I'm proud to say that I designed this cover myself! My wish was to have something which actually resembled a box set, and considering this was my first try, I must say I'm quite pleased with it.
Through a lot of research, I found the greatest program which allows you to create all kinds of wonderful things. You may already know about it, but for those who don't, it's called GIMP. You can download it for free online. It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you figure it out, you'll love it.
Also, if you ever have a photo which you feel is not quite clear enough or could be of a better quality, you might want to try Pixlr.com. Also free online, and a joy to work with. I suggest you download it, pick a photo you want to adjust, and just play. It's great fun. By adjusting the pixels (width and height) to a higher number, i.e. 1600 X 2400, your picture will look a thousand times clearer. To accomplish this, choose 'Adjust' + 'Resize'...
Of course, I am no expert in software or how to use them, so please remember that if you decide to try these out.
If you have a minute, do let me know what you think of my box set picture! I'd sure appreciate it!
