    I had no idea that this was something that we had control over and could design. Thank you so much for the information!

    The resizing and arranging of A+ content on "Trail to You and Me" was so quick, and it looks great.

    I learned so much! I'm excited to have published 2 low content books. The problem I have is Amazon used the wrong A+ Content on one of my books. I have not found anything on their site to submit a request to fix their error. Any suggestions you have are appreciated. TIA 😊

    I love this video! Do you have one showing how you create the mockups for your "My Book Launch Planner"? I have a journal that I sell on amazon with some unique interior pages and features I would like to highlight, but I am struggling to get the images of the interior pages onto my A+ content in a way that looks real like yours! Thanks so much!

    I really enjoyed this video! Super helpful, easy to follow, and descriptive! I was always curious about how to do those cool banner things on Amazon (now I know that they are called: A+ Content haha). I got inspired by you and decided to add my book tropes as part of the design for my A+ Content too. In the future, when I have more time, I think I'm probably going to include some of my book quotes and/or editorial reviews. Thank you so much, Mandi!

    Do you have a tutorial on what to do if you run into a tech issue KDP is having regarding getting your title out properly and it has now been over 2 weeks, your launch has been destroyed and it is still not resolved, you are no longer getting responses. Where can you go next to get a hold of help?

    As a designer, what are instances where you use Canva over Photoshop or Affinity or other programs of the like?

      I prefer Adobe 90% of the time. I use Canva for quick marketing materials like this.

    Hi Mandi, when I try to upload my A+ content, it uploads really blurry. I haven't tried the template with the dog that you used though. Any advice to unblur it? I used all the correct dimensions but it still comes out blurry.

    • @allyaldridge

      Look at the download options. On the page where you can see all your projects, you can right click the project and see all your download options.
      Here you can pick the file type like PNG, but you can also increase the size. This will make the data size bigger but the images better quality.
      Another thing to try is opening your project. Find the image that is appearing fuzzy and see if you can enhance that to be more crisp. I think this option is something that can only be done on a computer (I do most my Canva-ing on my mobile).

      @@allyaldridge so it finally worked! I didn't change anything except instead of selecting their 600x180 template, I selected the one Mandi did with the dog and the clear text. Didn't use the text so just uploaded my picture and it turned out nicely! Not blurry at all now 😀
