A Quick Rundown on Purchasing a Premade from ATRTINK COVERS

Please take the time to read this in its entirety so you are not surprised or confused. If you have any questions, check my FAQ first and contact me via email.

If you do not agree to any portion of the Terms and Conditions, do not make a purchase, or create an account.

By creating an account and purchasing a premade book cover design, you become The Author, and you agree to ATRTINK COVERS terms and conditions, and agree to the licensing rights of the stock photography used in the design(s).

NOTE: If you want to purchase a design as a gift, or for someone under the age of 18, contact me first, and I will invoice you instead. You cannot buy the design to pass along. I can amend the licensing agreement to the gift recipient’s name. (This is required as I cannot transfer licensing multiple times or to a third party).

You must sign up for an account before making a purchase.
If you purchase on a Friday night, a Saturday, or Sunday, I will send you the requested changes on the following Monday.
After 24 hours, or on Tuesday: Adjustments and typographical add-ons are $50.00 per request.

Upon Purchase You Can

Use image overlays – such as sale notices, ‘now available’, or in use of animated promos.

Create promotional and giveaway items of the entire design or major elements of the design for promotional use only. This covers bookmarks,  mugs, t-shirts, etc.

Create materials of the entire design or major elements of the design for promotional use covering: bookmarks, mugs, t-shirts, etc.

Make minor color adjustments, convert to grayscale, or color changes that does not reduce the quality of the image.

Duplicate the image and change color theme for episodic/serialized content on your website, or in e-book format across all publishing platforms.

You Cannot:

Create materials such as bookmarks, mugs, t-shirt, etc to offer for sale. You must purchase an extended license from the stock company or photographer first.

Add another image onto the cover and repurpose as a ‘new’ design for any purpose or intent. (including mock-ups)

What is not included with purchase.

PSD ‘layered’ file. You can use the final, downloaded JPG to create a smart object if you are a small publisher or established author and prefer this format.

Any Design Elements: Including frames, ornaments, and glyphs: They are not embedded into the artwork file, as it is easier to add them back upon request than to remove them.

Fonts: I purchase font licenses from design resources websites such as Font Bundles, or Creative Market. I can use the font to create your book’s typography and ‘flatten’ it onto the cover. I can also provide PNGs for your books’ interior title page, but I cannot send you the actual font file.

Purchased pre-mades will continue to be displayed as-is with a ‘Sold’ overlay until your book sees publication, after which a copy of your published book will be placed in my portfolio. (with the typographer credited if indicated.) 


If you alter or tamper with the design without permission: I will continue to display the original design with a ‘Sold’ overlay on my website , thereby making it known that I did not create nor approve those alterations and I will not be held liable for any licensing agreements or copyrights you may have violated by your misuse of the premade book cover design you purchased.
