Hi Alex, Does the formatting include making the table of contents clickable? |

Hi, Alex, Just found this thread and wondered if you were STILL offering the service. If so, let's chat... I have a small book I'd like to format and get a really great cover for. Love the reviews here! Thanks very much... |

Hi Alex, Can you format the eBook with pictures we send to you as well? Does that cost more? If so, maybe you can let me know with a PM. I'll have 2 books for you to create covers and format within the next 7 days. Cheers, Dean |

Hi Alex, What formats can you work with for formatting? What if we have a fairly raw OpenOffice odt format with pictures and different font styles and sizes? I formatted it but it doesn't look so good in the Kindle previewers. : ) Raiko |

Hi, do you do discounts for multiple orders? I am looking at 2/3 different niches all with a series of books, so I would be looking for the covers to be similar for each niche. Many thanks |

Hi, I can only offer discounts if you order and make payment for at least 4 books at a time. Please let me know if this is okay with you and I'll tell you how to proceed. Thanks. |

Hey Warriors, Just wanted to chime in and let you all know Alex did a fantastic job on my covers and formatting. He goes beyond just doing that. Alex describes in detail how to upload your book and the cover within a PDF with screen shots and everything was so easy to do. It's a complete package created so you can market your books beyond Amazon if you want to. Thank You Alex! Great job!!! I'll have more for you soon. ![]() To YOUR Success, Dean Shainin |

Hey, Warriors I just wanted to say that Alex did a fantastic job on my book cover design and formatting. I originally had the cover done by someone else and it looked very amateur. Alex's covers are very professional and I did not have to change a thing. A word about the formatting: Amazon has a whole section on how to format, but honestly, for this price, it was not worth me going through and trying to format it myself. One more thing - he delivered it in less time than originally promised. Again, fabulous job, Alex! You will be getting more from me! Alex - you have my permission to post my sample if you want.

I'm also one of Alex's happy customers. I have just used his service and he did an awesome job. The cover his designer did is very nice, I accepted the 1st draft, no revision needed. The instructions to upload everything to Amazon have been useful too. Thanks a lot! |

I've already posted a review but I just wanted to say that Alex has gone beyond the call of duty for me. Alex even found a couple of mistakes within my book and asked if I wanted it corrected. I'm not say proof reading is part of this special offer but it was really cool that Alex let me know. He also did some quick updates on 4 of my covers and re-sent the entire package which was not part of the deal. Talk about over-deliver!!! I will be working with Alex for a long time and he is my 'go to guy' for anything related to creating covers and formatting... ![]() Thanks again Alex. To YOUR Success, Dean Shainin |

Just wanted to chime in and say Alex did a formidable job with my book. I just sent him the word doc and I got it back formatted within about 36 hours. I didn't need to use his cover option as well, but looking at some of his samples, I certainly will be doing in the future. I'm a complete newbie to kindle publishing, so this was $20 definately well spent Kim |

I've also got some skills in graphics and I'm used to make my own ecovers, some are outstanding and some would need a refresh. Anyway it is time-consuming, then Alex not only safe my time, but also made a great job, and the support is simply perfect. I got 2 packs already and I'm going to order on a regular basis. Thx a lot DOt |

Just want to let people know this is a great service for getting a cover and Kindle formatting. I couldn't believe how nice my ebook cover looked. It was also great not to have to worry about Kindle formatting. Alex provides you with a PDF of the whole upload process. I just finished uploading mine in about 20 minutes. The only reason it even took that long was for me to write a good description of the book along with spend some time figuring out the best categories for it. If you had that stuff ready to go I think you would spend closer to 5 minutes! So with this service you don't have to worry about doing all the Kindle stuff. You just need a word document and a title idea and Alex will take care of the rest. I'm really happy to have found his service. He's very nice, helpful and professional. Again, the covers look great! Thanks Alex, I'll be using you for all my Kindle books. Lisa |

Now THAT was easy. Just sent my .doc and title to Alex. Within a couple days he had a rough draft for the cover -- perfect, no changes needed. And a couple days after that he sent me both the high-res cover graphics, the formatted .mobi book and instructions for uploading it all. Sure, I could have learned how to format it myself. But why bother, when Alex did such a great job? ![]() Thanks Alex! Becky |

Alex sent me the completed order -- perfect as usual! And even though his service doesn't include proofreading, he did find an error in my work and emailed me to confirm that it was a typo. Now that's going way above and beyond the call of duty! If you're on the fence about this, don't hesitate any longer -- the more people who discover what a great WSO this is, the busier Alex is going to get! Thanks Alex! Becky |

The normal turnaround time is 3 days for the cover design. Once you approve the design, it will be another 2 days for the CreateSpace formatting. If there are issues with the original document that need me to correspond with you, that may increase the turnaround time. Feel free to ask me any questions. I'll be glad to answer them. Thanks and regards, Alex | |

Alex did such a fantastic job with my recent Kindle and Createspace project. He went way above and beyond and put in a lot of extra work. I love how the cover and formatting turned out in both Kindle and Createspace. In fact we just got our Createspace review copy and are so excited by how it turned out. I highly recommend Alex for his quality of work as well as excellent customer service. I expect to order from Alex again and again. Much thanks! |

I have just had two design packages produced by Alex and they are brilliant! Not only are the designs terrific, Alex put in a lot of extra time and effort and I was pleased to accept his work first time, without any alterations. I will surely be giving Alex all my future business. Thanks a lot, Alex! |

Hi Alex Hope this isnt a dumb question, but the graphics you use for covers - do you have proper licensing for these so that they can be used on books? I'd hate to get an angry or threatening letter further down the track. |

I use photo stock sites for a lot of website images, but books are different. There was a discussion on PhotoDune about this, and the general consensus was that for a Kindle cover, you needed the extended license for images, not the standard one. Is that what you understand as well? All photo sites have this type of standard/extended license I think. Which do you use?

Thanks for your reply. I cant PM you back because of low post count. Ok great. I also have a book that was formatted in indesign to make it look pretty and is saved now as PDF files. Can you work with PDF files as well as Word files? Thanks Mike |

| Alex I cannot PM you as my post count is still zero on WF, even though I have posted a few. I've been looking into this further and it looks like there are slightly different rules depending on which site you get the images from. They seem to have a common element in that if your publication is over 250,000 copies, you need the extended license. Can I ask which photo sites you use? I really want a cover or two created, but I'd want to check the individual sites themselves. |
