You are correct. Space has not been immediately been left for a barcode to be inserted into the book template designs we did not leave this extra space because to the untrained eye, it may not make sense to have it. Also for our customers who what an eBook cover design it would may not be necessary. However, the text area, book title and author name areas on the templates are all movable and can be adjusted to leave space for a barcode to be inserted when needed.
If you are using any version of CS I think that Adobe has adjusted their products to overcome the drawback that there used to be from opening files from different versions. However, in the previous versions of Photoshop prior to CS, you may run into issues opening files between older and new releases. So in general, I’m pretty sure that any version of CS should be fine to open our templates.
However, if you would like to test further, I suggest you download one of our FREE icons. They were made between and older and newer version of Photoshop. If your current version can open one of these icons or images, your version of CS should work just fine. You can access them HERE.
We have found that sometimes color can either help or hinder the appearance of a logo, since different people like different colors for different reasons. We specifically want you to see each logo in black and white, so that it can be judged purely on font style and design. If you like any of our logos in black in white, adding your favorite color to it would only help it become more appealing to you.
We also provide the color version of the logo presenting a visual of what it could look like. This gives an array of ideas and different variations, which can be formatted to the black and white version. Also, if you like what we have created for a nominal exact fee, you can obtain it as well.
The Logo Design Combo Pack is included in all the fonts needed for the file, in both the original black and white, and color versions of the logo.
Absolutely! Every aspect of each template can be customized to fit your personal needs. That’s one of the great things about Photoshop. Everything can be changed. Review some of our Free Photoshop Icons
HERE.
Yes, you can. The files are layered Photoshop files. So, if you find an image or graphic that you prefer over the included images, you may adjust and replace them at will.
There are several online sites that we use to get images from. Visit our Resources Page to review them now.
Since we want each book cover template available to be used as a book and an eBook cover, we included all sides in the book cover template. This will be needed just in case the author of an eBook decides later that he/she would like to turn his/her eBook into a regular book. The author would already have all the files needed to do so, and will not need to make another purchase for the back cover and spine.
We apologize, but no. We sell the book cover templates and eBook cover templates as one design to make the process easier in the long run.
You can:
Build any (1) logo design, (1) graphic design for any book, magazine, or product cover, and (1) web site design using the template in any way you like.
You cannot:
–Resell or redistribute templates (like we do).
–Claim intellectual or exclusive ownership to any of our products, modified or unmodified. All products are the property of the content provider companies and individuals. If your creating more than one project using the same template, you have to purchase the same template once more in order to create another project with that same design.
Yes, we can customize any template that you want. Please visit our Customization Page for more details.
- NON-EXCLUSIVE PURCHASE:
Non-exclusive purchase means other customers can buy the same template, that you
have chosen, at a later date.
- EXCLUSIVE PURCHASE:
Exclusive purchase guarantees that you are the last customer to buy the template. After an exclusive purchase occurs, the template is permanently removed from the sales directory and is no longer made available to other customers again. Only you and the customers who have purchased the template prior to you will own it and have exclusive rights to it.
Yes, because there is a very small chance that you will find the same design in print or online. Also, there are more than 3,000,000,000 web pages online now according to stats on Google. To see the current stats yourself, go to
www.google.com and do a search for “How many websites are currently on the web. The number will shock you!

The major advantage is “price”. You can get a high quality design for less than $35 (non-exclusive). You will not have to hire a web/graphic designer or external web/graphic design studio. Second advantage is “time”. It usually takes 5–15 days for a good designer to produce a design work of such quality. With our logo templates, book and ebook cover templates and web site design templates you can have you design completed as quickly as your Photoshop skills will allow.

Yes. It is perfect for designers who want to offer their customers a high-quality design and also save time and money. We do ask that you only use one template per design and if you have another client to purchase another template for that customers design. Thanks!

Please note that all files downloaded are “.zip” files. This type of file compresses all of the files into one smaller file to optimize file size.
To open these type of files, an “unzip program” is required. This program will unzip the files so that you can access them. Please select one of the links below for web sites that allows you to download an unzip program. After you have downloaded and installed the program, you will be able to unzip the file. Once you have installed the unzip program, you will need to open the file from within your newly installed Unzip/Zip program.
Downloading and installing a PKZip program, for example; once you run the program, select File > Open. You will then need to locate the template that you have purchased and downloaded to your computer’s hard drive. Now, select the file and click “Open”. The program will then unzip the files to the same folder of the original .zip file, unless you select a new destination.
Here are a few options to find an unzip program. Copy and paste these urls into your internet browser address section:

Finally, we personally suggest “
ZIP Reader 8.0.18″.
ZIP Reader is a free Windows utility that allows users to open files that have been compressed using SecureZIP or
PKZIP–or any other
ZIP product.
ZIP Reader decrypts Secure
ZIP files created by any
PKWARE product, regardless of the hardware platform. That means, Windows users can access files encrypted and compressed on Windows,
UNIX, Linux, iSeries, and zSeries systems. It is simple to use with a slick auto launch feature–just double click on a
ZIP file or drag-and-drop the
ZIP file to the
ZIP Reader icon. The file unzips automatically.
Please copy and paste the following link into your browser for a
FREE download from
downloads.com. The link is:
http://www.download.com/ZIP-Reader/3000-2250_4-10363714.html?tag=lst-0–1
If you decide not to use one of these programs, you may do a search on Google (www.google.com) for a “shareware” or “freeware” unzip program.
Your template comes with the fonts that were used to create it. These fonts may not be the same fonts that are provided on your computer. You will need to install the included template fonts on your computer, if you do not want the font style to change.
To install the new font onto your Windows PC, do the following:
1. Open Windows Explorer by clicking the right mouse button while over the Windows “start” menu button.
2. An option to “Explore” will show up from a new menu. Select it.
3. This will open up the “Windows Explorer” window.
4. Select the “C” drive from the left side of the window and you will see a listing of all of the folders in the root directory of your computer shown on the right side of the window.
5. Find the folder which has all of the fonts from the template that you purchased and downloaded to your computer’s hard drive.
6. Select the fonts folder; then select all the fonts that are in this folder. From the Windows Explorer menu at the top select Edit > Copy.
7. After you have copied the template fonts from your template folder, select the “C” drive again from the left side of the window. You will see a listing of all of the folders in the root directory of your computer shown on the right side of the window again.
8. Double click on the “Windows” folder on the right side of the window.
9. In the new set of files that show up from the “Windows” folder, double click on the “Fonts” folder.
10. This folder will now display all of the fonts that you have currently installed on your computer.
11. From the Windows Explorer top menu, select Edit > Paste.
12. Windows should now paste into your Windows/Fonts folder, and the fonts that you previously copied from your template folder.
13. You may want to restart your computer from this point to make certain that the new fonts are recognized by your computer. You will at least need to restart PhotoShop.
14. You should now be able to see the same font change within PhotoShop after you restart. PhotoShop may also ask you to update layers when you open your new template. Be certain to select “update” and the new font should be recognized by PhotoShop. If not, you may need to reselect the font style from within PhotoShop after you have restarted it from the “Character” tab.
15. Once one or all of these steps have been completed, you should be able to change the wording of the font for your template while maintaining the same font style.
The turnaround time mostly depends on the template that was chosen; however, for basic customization, we attempt to follow the following basic time frame:
— For Basic Customization of a “Logo Template”, turnaround time is usually 3–5 business days.
— For Basic Customization of a “Product Template”, turnaround time is usually 5–7 business days.
— For Basic Customization of a “Web Template”, turnaround time is usually 10–15 business days.
These times are normally adhered to; however, the process can only begin when all aspects or questions about the design are answered by the client, and we are not waiting on any files to be sent, or answers to questions that we may need.
