I am going to be publishing some of my stories and was wondering about book covers. So far I have been using pictures that I have found on unsplash and I have been pretty happy with them, but, if it wasn't too expensive I thought it might look even better with someone who was more artistic designing them. So... does anyone know how much that costs and who would be a good collaborator?
Thanks in advance

I design my own covers
I design my own covers. I've done a few for other people as well. Below are some that I've designed. If you like them, I'd be glad to help.

Covers
I do most of the covers for DopplerPress but Piper does some, a few have been done by the authors and two were done by outside artists hired through http://fiverr.com - a resource for hiring professional freelances for brief jobs.
I had two years of Art and Graphic Design in college, a year of working as a graphic designer for a printer, and two years of work in comic books. It helps. Many people have a good eye for images, but typography is a very technical field and even professionals can struggle to achieve the aims of communication, clarity, impact and marketability.

Cover designs
I have seen most if not all of the Doppler Press books and love some of them and even the ones I don't love I like. I may come back to you, but I have someone who messaged me and is willing to help so I am going to try that first.
Many thanks
