Okay, so in this chapter, I'll be explaining some good ways to make your covers more aesthetic looking. These are things that I do for most of my covers, so hopefully you guys will find these useful!

SATURATION AND FILTERING

Filtering and adjusting the saturation are so !! important !! This is the main thing that makes my covers eye appealing, so make sure you do this every time you edit a cover. Filters can make all the difference!

i. Open your background and your PNG as the foreground. Go to the filter tab and adjust the saturation to your liking (I usually match it well with the background). Merge and then open in polarr when done. Filter I used will be in the add ons.

CHANGING COLORS

Another vital tip I love to use is changing the colors of the person's clothing or anything else that I notice. Doing this helps make the cover dramatically more eye appealing, so it's very very important as well.

i. Open your background and your PNG as the foreground. Place the PNG and merge.

ii. Open color that matches your background and upload it as the foreground. Go to the transform tab and select hue or color.

iii. Use the brush tool to erase areas that you don't need and then merge. Save, filter, and that's all!

 Save, filter, and that's all!
