This chapter will be all about what fonts to use together, what color looks best with certain colors, where to place the text, and other random tips here and there.
Color
When choosing the color to use for your cover, go with something first off that matches in some way. I usually pick a color in my cover and use it to color my text, but you can also choose colors that match certain colors. For instance, if you were to have a blue and white cover, a black or light purple would match decently.

This cover above looks bad to me because first off, that color of red is hideous. In my opinion, this color of red makes every cover look terrible. I just really hate that color of red. Usually any pure color like red, blue, and yellow look bad as titles. Also in this cover, the placement is just off. Since there's so much black open space, I would place that there to make it look more balanced.

This is what an ideal looking cover to me would be like using this image. I usually try and place the titles in areas that are empty looking so fill up the space, such as Crystal's hair above. I also made the font white to make it stand out and to blend in better with the cover overall.
Placement
Placement is key when it comes to making covers. If it's in a weird place, it can be turn off for the viewer. It's important to get it just right.
