In 1999, I started “playing around” with making my own graphics. I began making my very first website using an online website builder, the program had ready made graphics but I wasn’t very happy with how they looked, so that is when I started using Paint Shop Pro and another program called PrintShop. I really enjoyed making my own graphics and have done most of them myself over the years when I had the time.
In 2003, I upgraded to a more professional program called Adobe Photoshop and started learning how to use it through experimenting and reading books purchased specifically for the program. I continued to make my own graphics and my skills have continued to improve, but in 2007 I wanted to make my own ecover and decided to give it a try. I really enjoyed the process and with 9 years of “tinkering” with graphic design, and extensive Internet marketing experience, I decided to start GeteCovers.com.
I continue to broaden my skills through various tutorials and am currently working on earning my Master’s certificate in graphic design through Sessions Online School of Design based in New York, NY
