7-14 day contest period, then 3-7 days for revisions. Total 10-21 days per cover. Miss launch windows. Competitors publish while you wait for contest results.
Provide feedback to 10-50 designers individually. Reply to questions, rate submissions, explain vision repeatedly. Hours managing your contest instead of writing your next book.
Most 99designs designers specialize in logos or websites, not KDP books. They don't know spine calculations, bleed zones, or genre conventions.You get beautiful designs that KDP rejects.
You own the winning design, but what about elements used? Some designers use stock photos without proper licensing. You could face copyright issues months after publication.
After selecting winner, most packages include 2-3 rounds. Need more changes? Pay extra or launch new contest. Never quite perfect, always paying more.
Designers from 192 countries. Language barriers, time zone delays, cultural misunderstandings. Explaining subtle genre nuances to non-native English speakers is frustrating.
