Using BeYourCover is super easy and the graphic choices are fantastic. Even so, I ran into a few little issues (user error) and communication with the team was fast and productive.
Laurie AllenSelf-published authorBeYourCover is not only intuitive, but makes fantastic book cover renderings that are easy to change. I've worked with graphic artists, and although they try their best, no one has come close to creating the book cover designs I want as does BeYourCover, and at a fraction of the cost!
