The Title Page Image Is Now the Cover Page Image

The white rectangle is reserved for the ISBN bar code.

The “finished” title page is now the cover page. I decided to to expand the title page to double width and use it for the front and back cover. The spine will cut off the tip of Buddy’s right wing. However, when the reader opens the book and lays it face down, they will see the image in all its seamless majesty.

For the title page, I’m going to extract parts of the cover image with most details removed. The title text should be the big feature of the title page.
