Ebook cover creator software?
I'm trying to find a source for a linux based ebook cover creator such as the one at http://app.fastecovers.com/ecover-design. I want to put it on my server so that my users can create ebook covers.
Does anyone know where I can find that type of software. Everything I see on the net is windows based. |

Not quite what I was looking for
Thank you John, but that's not the type of software I'm looking for. I need something specifically designed to create ebook covers. I know there IS such software as I'm looking at exactly what I want at this URL.
http://app.fastecovers.com/ecover-design
But I've been looking all day and don't see where I can get that software or similar software. |

What about Libreoffice's Draw? Apparently these instructions though intended for Powerpoint, can be applied to Libreoffice as well.

Why not use the one you see?
The apps are a load of bollocks,done for phones and used for playing. I am sure a publishing house would not use those, if you want pro, then i second gimp or inkscape or the adobe alternatives.
