We just finished a, if I do say so myself, GORGEOUS Christian cover--a person's arms/hands, chained, with a Dove of Peace coming in for a landing--the client could not be more thrilled. The tries we made at mooshing together stock..oy vey. So...it's something to consider. NO, the images (alone) cannot be copyrighted, by you, TO you. But the finished cover can. And realistically, how many folks will come along and steal your image? And if they do--what's the real difference between them doing that or seeing your Pexels or DepositPhotos or Unsplash,etc. image, on a cover and getting it for themselves and using it? I'm just saying, we have customers that are over the moon, about their very "perfect" imagery, made using AI. No, the entire cover is NOT made--it's the image and then you have to make the rest, text, yadda, but...it's a huge leg up. Offered FWIW. Hitch |

Plus, a lot of folks do read on phones or tablets. Not me, personally, but enough that I think it's better to retain max "curb appeal" if trying to sell something. Back in the day where I sold off my used reads and/or "finds" on eBay, the reason I actually GOT book sales, was that I put up nice images. |
