Ignore the people advising you slow down your speech. I found it really useful. There are so tutorial makers out there that talk so slowly that it invites you into a coma. They also fixate on useless details and stretch what should be 5 minutes into 25. Your style is good for people like me who want to get the info they want and get moving. DIG IT!!
WOW! You really made this look easy, and definitely professional. I am saving it for when I get to that point in my publishing and cover design stuff. Thanks a lot!
This is really exactly what I need - but even though I've been using Photoshop for years, I don't really use many of the features you are using. It would be wonderful if you did this in parts at a beginner level where you explain and show you implementing each tool you employ. Going way too fast and even if I pause, I am unfamiliar with so many of the features you're using.
Thanks for the effort making this tutorial, but there's no details. For each step explained, there's another three left out. Everything from what type of pointer to use, or how to change images sizes, has been left out. This is hard to follow for anyone who isn't already intently familiar with the program.
Hi, this is so helpful--I wish there was a slo-mo function though as for slow learners like myself I'd need to review all the clicks and moves you made. Great stuff!
Hey there!! Great tutorial, it's exactly what I need. I do have a question though. I was asked to design a cover for a 150 page book. Are there specific permitters that I need to abide by? I'm sure the spine will be very small compared to larger books.
A very good job. I liked the way you did and explained that tutorial , but I have one note which is you were explaining very quickly, otherwise , welldone bro.
Alright, this is too fast, and I'm stuck doing the two first lines. HOW did you make them? What did you press? Why can't I see the same grid/ruler that you have? My 5,5 isn't near the middle of the picture though I made it the same size. :( EDIT: Nvm, looking at the webpage instead, at least there I can figure things out at my own pace.
Every time he say to do something i had to find another video explaining how to do it and then come back. This video really wasn't made with beginners in mind.
Hello, I wanted to know that does this same method applies to Photoshop2020? Also, how about we create different covers(front and back separately) and then add the margin later. Will it work?
I have a problem.. my book/brochure is A4 in size. How do I create a soft book cover for some thing this size. Simply put an A4 sheet of card through the printer does not work as this leaves no room for the thickness of the book, Unless it only has 1 page :-) Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp? Thanks for your reply in advance.

Could this guy talk any faster? Was this video part of a competition to see who could create the fastest tutorial?
+Mark Stone It is likely the person just talks fast, ever thought of that...? I understand the temptation to make a lame joke about it though.
Click the three dots on the upper right, select Playback Speed. Adjust to slower speed. You're welcome.

It's compatible with Intel-based Mac OS, Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7
