There are several graphic software packages available to help you create your own e-covers for your product or service. Most provide you with a set of templates to choose from, and have varying degrees to allow you to modify the templates provided. Regardless of which package you’re using there are 5 other important steps to consider when design an e-book cover, graphics for a software package or other product graphics.

These five steps deal with the effect you want your graphic to have on your prospect. Each step is briefly described below.

Identify the desire, need or fear your product or service affects.
Many people attempting to sell their products on the internet aren’t aware of a basic fact of marketing on or off the internet. That fact is … People buy based upon their emotions. Next they justify the purchase with logic or benefits. Your graphics should satisfy the emotional desire. It should be a visual of their desire being met, their need being filled, or their fears being calmed. Once the emotion that your product or service is serving is identified. Begin to list possible visuals to show this action.

Choose the colors to enhance the emotions you want to evoke
Now that you have a general idea of the graphics you want, you should consider the colors you will use. Make sure the colors appropriately trigger the desired emotion. Use this thought process when choosing the picture, the background color and even the color of the type.

Create the picture of your prospect fulfilling his desire, filling his need, or calming his fear.
Arrange the title, background color, style, and the picture to come together into a smooth and powerful creation radiating the satisfied emotions of your prospect.

This one is almost certainly in the ‘Fad’ camp. And you REALLY have to like cabbages in order to try this diet! You probably won’t be surprised to find that this 7 day diet plan requires you to eat cabbage soup, constantly. The rationale behind the Cabbage Soup Diet is that cabbage can somehow ‘flush’ fat from your body. Of course, this claim is unsubstantiated, and has no medical research to back it up.

While you have to basically eat a lot of cabbage soup, you can eat a few other things too. According to research done by staff at www.supadiet.com, a typical Cabbage Soup day might include all the cabbage soup you can eat, a couple of glasses of skinned milk, and an entire bunch of bananas. This, of course is a recipe for wind, and that side effect is something the proponents of the Cabbage Diet don’t dwell on (much like Atkins Diet fans don’t mention the bad ‘Lion’ breath it tends to give you!).

If the cabbage soup diet works at all, it is because the base foodstuff is low cal. This restricts your calorific intake, while simultaneously filling you full of fiber and filling your stomach which lessens hunger pangs. The cabbage soup diet claims you can lose up to 10 pounds in a single day, which is dangerous to the extreme, and definitely not regarded as safe practice by doctors. As a ‘crash’ diet, the initial weight loss tends to be mostly water, which is, of course, rapidly replaced. At www.supadiet.com, we therefore believe that as a long term solution to losing weight and keeping it off, the Cabbage Soup Diet probably has rather marginal utility.

Should you try it? If your doctor has no objections, and you have a mild fetish for cabbages, and an air-conditioned house, feel free. Otherwise, you will probably be better off following a more health-orientated diet.
