Hello! Your contest seems very exciting! But I have a question. What do you mean by self-created work? Can you please specify more? Thank you. |

Yes for sure. I only mean no use of copyrighted photos. You canvuse royalty free photos or ones you vhave taken yourself. OR you can create vyour own cover using your ownvdrawings or artwork. :-) hope this helps. |

@Thedouglasclan - Do you have any ideas of what you'd like to see on the new cover? Also: if it is negotiated with the owner of the image(s) that they are to be legally used for the cover, is that OK? |

Hey, thahnks for asking and taking a look. (laughing), you have asked the million dollar questiom. and if I had an answer - lol - I'd probably not need a competition :-) I used a "scene' from the book when i did the first chapter. it is where EVERYTHING kind of changed for the Main Character. it is a pretty ok cover. That said, one of the founding members of Wattpad, suggested that it was a bit 'dark' and might be scaring readers away. So anyway, I think something inspired by the book will work best, but I am open to all suggestions. |

It alsos mentions a funeral, which suggests crying. Soo... Voila! What can I do to improve? I did get my pic off google. I tried adding words and whatnot. Is this okay? -EatingMe |

I took this photo last summer at a friend's house. Let me know if there's anything I need to change! I got inspired by reading the summary and seeing that it was a thriller. |

@sydenay Thank you. there is something not quite right on the right hand side and my name is cut off - should be Doug Brownlie. great photograph though. Some of your other work is very good also :-) Can you upload this somewhere as a jpeg. I am trying to get all of them onto one collage, so that i can distribute to judges at the end of the month. :-) |

OK, here. It's not exactly the same as the other (I foolishly deleted the project file).

@Thedouglasclan Do you need the subtitle? The 'A story of love, death, retribution and unpredictable outcomes' part :) |
