Just FYI friends, I signed up for the publishing vault. You can only use the art you download if you keep up your monthly $27 membership. Once you are no longer a member, you can't use any of it for kdp or anything else. They are $67 a pack if you buy them outright. :(

[@huwhughes]

This is incorrect. If you've uploaded to KDP then yes you can keep the books up there. However you may not use the graphics again for any other project. This is stated in the terms. For the quality in the vault...$27 is a no-brainer.

[@peskypartner3140]

Creative Fabrica and canva pro are both the same and any other PLR store. This is normal. You can not download the whole store to use later and just stop paying.😅

Thank you so much for your very kind words and support - I'm glad to hear you enjoy the videos on my channel! :)

[@msdmckay]

There is also a super easy, convenient, cheaper way to put them together once you've gotten the pages.....and that is self binding and self publishing....not through amazon but directly on your own site. When you think of spiral pages you think of planners and notebooks. But if you turn it landscape, calendar style, the whole perception changes so you can do landscape, spiral bound, or even just long stapled, and DIY on demand, self printed, and you can buy pre punched perforated paper in bulk. I get the hype of amazon making it easy for publishers but the downsides people don't acknowledge out loud is you can diy on demand your own books. Nobody is selling a bazillion of them at a time. Take the orders, make the number of copies you need, ship them off. Amazon takes so much of the money you have to highly overprice your work to make chump change. I'd imagine if you sold a book for 9.99 you'd want at least 9 bucks profit right? Instead, because amazon is "free" you'd have to charge 30 bucks to make 9 profit. If you sold coloring tablets or coloring notebooks, or long stabled coloring books straight off your own site for 5 bucks, you'd keep all of it. Amazon doesn't promote your books. Amazon doesn't fulfill the orders unless you ship it all there to begin with. Amazon takes a huge cut for its services, nickels and dimes you over every little thing. Same with Etsy......everybody flocked to etsy to set up a shop...but etsy is an arbitrary, unnecessary middleman. Etsy doesn't fulfill any orders. Etsy doesn't package or ship orders. Etsy doesn't pay shippping. Etsy doesn't promote or market your stuff. Etsy just gives you a catalog, buries you in with all the competitors, then takes a cut for doing some checkout function. You could eliminate etsy since you're doing it all yourself anyway and keep all revenue. Just sharing a solution!

Thank you for nice video it is rich for information, I have a question, is it possible to use In design software to make the Coloring Book?

[@markrowe8664]

Hi this is great for sizing however when you are making your book sometimes you can move the margins. So I recommend either keep the little squares on each page until you complete the full design then delete them. Or bring the squares back at the end of the design and double check all your margins by moving the little square to each page. both methods work for me.

[@ivyhang5084]

Appreciate your feedback and comment! :)

[@normakurtz6830]

Your tutorial is great in that you take time to go through the margins set up and the term bleed. Now how do I create a coloring book cover when my images do not have color examples to use on the book cover. I have tried "coloring" my black and white designs by using canva paint but arthritis prevents staying in the line and making it appear professional.

[@ivyhang5084]

Thank you for your kind comment! Glad you found the tutorial helpful. It is always tricky to be able to have the colored images for the cover after you design your coloring book in b/w. You could check out Publisher's Vault (link in video description section) to see if that might be helpful for you -they provided images in both color and B/W - hope this helps! :)

Thank you for your excellent video, which provided valuable information. However, I had a negative experience with The Publisher’s Vault, which you recommended. After choosing not to pursue membership with the $1 24-hour trial, I received an aggressive email threatening to cancel my KDP account, which I don't have. This was surprising and concerning, as I have no intention of selling colouring books or anything similar. It is sad to consider potential members dishonest and have bad intentions. Maybe The Publisher’s Vault should reconsider the trial period approach.

[@ivyhang5084]

Thank you for your kind comment about my video and I’m glad you found the content valuable! I’m very sorry to hear about your experience and I have contacted Huw @huwhughes who is the owner of the Publisher’s Vault to see if he can provide more context and help resolve your concerns. Thanks!

Hello, I think you are referring to my email which asks you not to use the content as its a trial and what may happen such as having the books taken down. This is for your own protection as I do actively have a team challenging authors who use my content without any rights to the content. EDIT - I can see that the membership was cancelled by yourself. thanks for taking a look.

[@MihaiPasol-fy3xw]

Hi, thank you so much for this tutorial. I have a question and it might be a long shot but worth go: I got a publishers vault membership and I am using their designs but when I go on Canva and I put a background photo it is fine but then when I want to add characters on top of that background image, the background disappears and I saw in this video that you just add characters on top of backgrounds without any trouble. Would you be able to help and let me know what I am doing wrong? Thank you in advance and thank you for all the amazing content 😃

[@ivyhang5084]

Glad you enjoyed my tutorial :). Regarding your question- sometimes that could happen if you add by dragging the characters onto canva which the app may think you are intending to replace the background with whatever you are dragging in. Perhaps try to just tap on the characters to bring it in- instead of dragging in? That usually works. Otherwise feel free to raise your question at one of the weekly calls they offer as part of the Publishers Vault. They are usually very thorough and detailed in going over member’s questions. Hope you get it resolved soon! :)

I just published a coloring book, and they gave me the free (bar code?) but I also published a low content prayer journal and they did not give me a free barcode, but they still put a barcode on the book, and they did not bill me for it. So I don't understand what the difference is. Well, I see that on the listing for the "medium content" coloring book I do get sample pages shown on my listing and for the "low content" prayer journal I get no sample pages shown on my listing, nor is my back cover shown. I am working on a mental health journal. Because I am a clinical mental health therapist, it is more than a journal, it is 50% real book! How do I make sure that is not categorized as "low content"? Sorry for the long question. Thanks so much. Glad I discovered your videos.
