Create LBB Front-Covers! – Select Your Options, and Click “Render”!
Hints
Don’t use more than 25 characters for each text entry, or the font will shrink, and the LBB will look ugly. (If You use more than 50 characters your text will be truncated.)
The color values goes from 0 to 255. 0 is the darkest. 255 is the brightest. Use Bright colors, when You select Your own RGB colors. That is, use values that add up to a sum of more than 300.
To Save the LBB Front-Cover, right-click and select “Save Image As” and select to save the LBB Front-Cover as a png-file. (This is basically how to do it, but it may differ with different browsers.)
For the Striker Front Covers, the “Setting” is not used. The colors for the original Striker Books was Yellow-Orange. You can get a color that is close to that by setting the Red to 250, the Green to 170 and the blue to 40.

Great. Had to do this.
Updated to output png (instead of gif).
Great Idea, but it is meant to be so pixelated? So cannot really print out for some reason, any chance this can be corrected?
This was never meant for print, only for fun. So, while it could be updated to 300dpi, it will probably not happen.
(It is quite easy to do this manually in a graphics program if you really need it.)
The image created is unfortunately way too small to be useful for anything. Please allow image size to be selected.
This is not meant to be useful. This is just meant to be fun.

Wish we could to the cover from the Facsimile Edition and/or the white interior cover pages
Added to to-do list.
