FAQ
-
Why is an album cover important?
If you want your album to be successful, don’t be afraid to take risks. Be ready to spend a lot of time creating cover art, because it is the ultimate marketing tool. Listeners see the cover before they listen to the music. Later on, this design will be associated with songs from the album and convey a more sentimental meaning to fans. -
Where can one find inspiration for album covers?
We won’t surprise you by telling you to browse Instagram, Pinterest, and other major social media platforms. But we know one more place full of genius ideas — your brain! Inspiration comes from within. When designing a cover, try to use key concepts from the music first. If your inner album cover creator doesn’t have any ideas today, then no worries! Go to VistaCreate and discover hundreds of design ideas for any music album style. Use them for inspiration or pick a template you like and adjust it to your cover in a few clicks. -

What should be included when designing album cover art?
