First off, i apologize for uploading my covers at such a low resolution.  I unfortunately make all my covers at home and only have microsoft paint to work with.  Microsoft paint can't really handle really high resolution images because there is no way to zoom out.  (I know how to use photoshop but just don't have it at home)

Enough of me rambling here are some new covers i have made.  like i said though they are only in low resolution (1560x1055 in most cases).  I hope someone likes these.

Have you checked out GIMP? It is a free, open source, image editing program that is like Photoshop. Some people even say it is actually even more powerful than Photoshop. http://www.gimp.org


I saw your covers and they look great! I definitely recommend GIMP.

I agree, you are a great artist and are doing yourself a great disservice by limiting yourself to Paint.

Yeah, you have to have a complier with GIMP. I know that sounds a little complicated, but what you want to do is download GIMP and the the GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment.

Try Downloading GIMP and the GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment from this website:
