Just add your own owner information and save it as a screensaver.

A screensaver? On what - the Kindle?

Har de har har .... I just noticed that three of them have cats in some form or other.

Hey .... I live with 20 cats. Is it any wonder they pop up in my artwork??

Just be glad I didn't have one scuba diving in the ocean ..... oh, hey ..... good idea!!

:rofl:

Well, Harry, that's all I've got to work with. I don't know if you can use them in any form on any of the other readers.

However ... that is how I'm using it on my Kindle. I have just the one image (top one, but with my name and address and phone number) as my screensaver.

I'm planning to create some more old fashioned bookplates ... I personally like those the best.

Are they able to be used on other readers??

I don't think so - that way the reason for the question. Look very good indeed, though!

Oh bummer. I suppose it's a little silly to call it a "screen saver" since the screen doesn't experience burn in. However, they do have the option on the Kindle to have an image replace your book text when the book goes into sleep mode.

So, I just thought that a bookplate would be a nice idea for that. Something to identify as my ebook.

I'm now trying to work up several traditional styles ... but I'm not feeling very inspired. I've got a ton of other stuff to do, and my neoprene just arrived, so I'm going to start on my neoprene book cover.

Let's call it the "Sleep Mode Pic".

Nah, call it a "screensaver"? It makes for interesting etymology discussions in the future. ;)
