Did this graphic grab your attention? It’s pretty cool, isn’t it? What if I told you that you could create cool graphics like this, without software, for less than a dinner out (for LIFE)? Yes, it is true.

There’s a new website service that allows you to create all sorts of cool “Web 2.0″ style graphics for a one time fee. That includes stylized text, cool billboards (right), banners, callouts, and all sorts of cool items. If you have a website of any sort, this is a great way to spice it up for cheap.

Check out Quick Web Creations now and start making graphics!

Here are two really quick, basic ecovers I made with 2 different sets of Photoshop actions. Which one do you think is cooler?

My friend Erum Munir just released a new set of -very cool- e-cover creator action scripts for Photoshop. These are very high resolution covers (Comparison: The “old” action I used output the cover on the left – at 196×220 pixels. Erum’s action, on the right, output at 3443×3056 pixels. I had to seriously size it down for this post) – which means that these babies are suitable for printing at almost any size, and upsizing the image won’t leave it blurry like it does with the other action script.

These actions are saving me a -ton- of time, and I’m making money doing e-covers for other people too.

I managed to get a $20 discount coupon for you as well, but you NEED to HURRY as it expires on Wednesday, the 7th of November. Here’s the code: 3DOFF20DM

And here’s the link: Erum Munir’s 3DEcover Actions. You can see more previews there as well.
