Everyone (incuding yourself) has the ability to clean up and/or create covers. You just have to try ... practice makes perfect :)

How do you clean up covers effectively? I allways seem to mess it up in some way.

I should really make that tutorial ::)
Depends on what you are trying to do. If you know specifically what you are trying to fix the youtube or google it. There is great support all over the net and basic photoshop tutorials. I know thats not very detailed on how to fix images but its hard to guess what problem you are running into. The best way to fix a cover is duplicate the image ans a lot of trial and error.
Remember that you can never increase the resolution from a small image! If its a bad low rez picture delete it from your memory because it is unusable.

I'm only good at MSPaint, I never could figure out Photoshop.
Here's an example of my editing for a cover

Here's raw scans for Night Driver (Atari).

Raws for Exodus: Journey To The Promised Land on NES. These scans are from "Wisdom" Tree" not "Color Dreams", hope they're the ones you're looking for.

Thats your problem right there ... YOU"RE USING MS PAINT! Never Ever use MS PAINT for anything!
Photoshop is not something you "figure out" in a day. It takes a very long time to know photoshop inside and out and i honestly i don't know everything about the program. If you are not using the correct tools you will not be able to make a good cover. Give photoshop another try. There is a reason why photoshop is so widely used ... its the best. (ok ok fireworks is pretty good too ;) )
