Create Studio Cover Artwork and Protect Credits

Generate artwork for the cover background, confirm that it appears and understand how failed Studio jobs return reserved credits.

Last updated 23 August 2026

Cover artwork is optional. Studio generates a background from the prompt while keeping the editable title, subtitle and creator name as separate, crisp text.

Complete Create Studio Cover Artwork and Protect Credits

  1. 1. Open the Studio product and go to Design & PDF. Check the current credit meter before starting.
  2. 2. Write a visual prompt that describes the subject, mood, composition and medium. For example, name the baking tools or ingredients you want rather than asking for a generic premium image.
  3. 3. Choose Create cover artwork once. Studio reserves the displayed credits while the job runs.
  4. 4. Wait for the result and confirm the new image appears in the Cover preview. The artwork should remain behind the editable cover text.
  5. 5. Save all design choices, reload the product and confirm the same artwork remains attached.
  6. 6. If the job fails, verify the reserved credits were returned before trying a revised prompt.

Confirm the result

The workspace credit number falls only for a successful charged job, the generated image appears in the live cover and saved PDF, and a failed job restores its reservation automatically.

If something is wrong

If credits changed but no artwork appears after one reload, do not start another charge. Keep the project and job reference and contact official support. If the image appears but the subject is poor, that is a new creative attempt rather than a failed delivery.

Keep it safe: Use the signed-in Selstack record and a non-sensitive reference when asking for help. Never send a password, one-time code, full card number, BVN or unmasked bank document.
