About This File
Converted from .psd to .ocf for use with GIMP.
Requirements:
- GIMP (free image editor)
- Basic image editing skills (no tutorial)
Cover:
- Scale image to 940px (height).
- Add as new layer under Cover group.
- Align cover to top and bottom of spine.
- Use Unified Transform Tool to snap corners to the guidelines.
- (optional) Use the Cover Features (icon/ratings/logos) if the cover does not already have them.
Spine:
- Create new text layer (Text Tool) under Spine group (font = Mark Pro Bold, size = 20px).
- Rotate text to 90-degrees (Rotate Tool).
- Snap to spine text guideline.
- Use spine logo for specific game.
Notes:
- You can watch the original Photoshop video here. Not too hard to figure out.
- GIMP 2.10 (stable) does not support non-destructive text editing yet, but it is an upcoming feature for 2.99.18 (dev). You need to create a new text layer every time you want to change the text content.
The outcome is very similar to this collection:
