    How to make a phone cover

    Ideas on how to make a phone cover


    Before I actually explain to you how to make a phone cover, let me give you some ideas on how to make them. That way, when you set out to use the services listed in the next chapter, you'll know exactly how to get around.

    First, ask yourself why you want to create custom cases. To promote your company, your brand or your website? In this case, a good idea could be to include in the cover the logo that represents your business and possibly the name of the latter or its official website.



    If, on the other hand, you want to create covers to give to people for a particular occasion (for example your parents' wedding anniversary), you could insert a photo and a phrase suitable for the occasion. In this way, you will make an original and at the same time useful gift.

    Then think in advance about the final result you want to obtain, perhaps making some sketches of how to insert the various elements in the cover. This will allow you to have more confidence when you are going to make it.

    If you are not very familiar with digital graphics, my tutorials on how to use Photoshop and GIMP (two of the most popular and complete photo editing programs in the world), will surely help you in creating the image to use later as a smartphone cover.
