Creating Show covers...

Post by Drez7 »

I see there are quite a few sites with some great show covers out there, so I am just curious what some common programs are that people use to create them. I would like to give it a try myself and see what I can do.

Thanks,
Mike D.

I use Photoshop 6 and Powerpoint to create mine. You can download some of mine from www.burningchurch.ca.

For the covers..make the width 9.5 and the height 4.75
For the backs...make the width 5.95 and the height 4.65

I can send people the template I use or you can download a bunch from www.burningchurch.ca under the Extras section. Just let me know if you need any help.

I would like to know if anyone can recommend the best way to
print the front of the cd covers that have a picture fold.

Thank you in advance.
