Virtual Cover Creator 2.2 Features
1. First select the type of cover image you want to
create. You have 9 cover types to choose from:
- Two-sided box
- Three-sided box
- Book cover
- Electronic magazine

- Special report
- Thin book
- Wide box
- Books-in-a-box
For this example, we will create a two-sided software box shot.
2. Next, you can select
a template from the template bonuses.
100 free, professionally designed templates are included
with the software, and we will select template 4 as shown
on the right.
Of course if you want, you can easily use your own cover
image instead. |

3. Add the text to
the Front Image.
Virtual Cover Creator lets you add text, allowing you
to specify the typeface, size, color and style. |

4. Now add text to
the Spine Image.
Each template set comes with matching spine and top
images. The matching spine image for this two-sided box
is loaded automatically. All you have to do now is add
some text to the spine image. |

5. Finally, just click
the 3D View button...
Virtual Cover Creator will create the 2-sided box for
you! Now just adjust the 3D image to meet your taste.
Add shadows, specify lighting direction, camera angle,
