Include size requirements:

• Amazon KDP: 2560 x 1600px (front cover), 300 DPI
• EPUB: 1600 x 2400px minimum
• Print: 6x9 inches at 300 DPI = 1800 x 2700px
• Always generate WITHOUT text — add title/author in post-processing

Rules

• ALWAYS specify "no text" in prompts — text will be added separately
• Genre conventions matter: horror readers expect dark covers, romance expects warmth
• Less is more — one strong visual > cluttered composition
• The cover must work as a THUMBNAIL (social media, online stores)
