Cover Tips

Begin masking away parts of the second PNG but not too much, so it looks like they're kind of connected.

Merge.

Step 3. (optional)

Open up a black foreground, and place it between the two people.

Go to mask, and begin masking away areas of the black foreground.

This will make it blend better.

Merge.

Step 4.)

Open up your image in Phonto, and add the first part of your text.

It should only be up to the first 'o', but if your title doesn't have any o's skip this part.

The font they used was called Minerva, but that's a font that you have to pay for, so I just used Avenir.

Make sure the text is in the middle, and then move it slightly to the right, but not too much.

Save it, and then write the second part of your word.

Move it to slightly to the left this time.

Step 5.)

Open up the first text as your background in Superimpose, and then import the second part as your foreground.

Go to Transform, and then choose the option that looks like four arrows pointing in different directions.

This is called Fit To Background.

Then lower the opacity of it.

After that, go to Mask, and select the smooth brush. This time turn the smoothness all the way down.

Since the opacity is lowered you should now be able to see the o in 'Mo'.

Mask over that area.

Now there will be some shadows, so what you need to do is go to 'Eraser' and then erase over the shadows.

Merge.

Step 6.)

Open up your image in Phonto, and then add your subtitle in the corner of your album cover.

Make it like a pyramid:

Three letters - Two letters - One letter

Increase the text spacing as fit.

Once that's done, repeat the step, and make sure all the text is the same spacing and size.

Then move it to the bottom corner of the album, and tilt it 180 degrees.

Add your name and you're done!

Sorry if it was confusing in any way, it's been a while!
