    This is my very first UA-cam review. I had to give one because you did a superb job on your tutorial. There really aren't a lot of guides on book covers that actually work. Great job! Everything was very clear and precise. I will definitely recommend to others. Thank you very much.

    Excellent tutorial. One thing I would do differently is after editing the cover photo I send it to the Master Page (I don't have the program on this computer, but the option is in the pop up menu when the image is clicked). That way I don't have to worry about dragging the image off center while working on other elements of the cover.

    If you do a two page view, the gutter size can be put in the area that says center. This is the better way, because platforms, kdp, lulu, smashwords, etc. Will tell you the exact size, example
    This is in inches, easier for platforms.
    8 by 10, 40 pages kids book
    Top
    Bottom
    Sides
    Margines will be set at, .25
    Center or gutter 0.375
    You then place cover in front, then place cover in back.
