How To Create Beautiful Podcast Cover Art

  1. Open The Free Design Tool

    We call it Dynamo, because it packs a lot of power into one little tool. Create as many cover image designs as you'd like — all entirely for free.

  2. Design Your Cover Image

    With options for background colors, gradients, or images along with text and effects, you can make it all your own.

  3. Upload To Your RSS Feed

    Once you have your beautiful new podcast cover image, upload it to your hosting platform (like Castos) to display everywhere your show is listed.

Design A Great Podcast Cover Art

There's no second chance to make a first impression, and your podcast cover art is exactly that for potential new subscribers: a snapshot of your brand. If your cover image isn't interesting, easily recognizable, and doesn't tell the story of your podcast, listeners will scroll right by your show in favor of another one to subscribe to.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you make a podcast cover picture?
There are complicated, expensive tools like Adobe Photoshop, but they're unnecessarily complex for cover art. We've built a tool specifically designed to let you create a great-looking podcast cover picture without any real design skills or technical experience. Choose a background (color, gradient, or image), insert your podcast title and host names, and select the font and font color you want — we take care of everything else.
How big is a podcast cover image?
3000×3000 px is the standard size. Directories like Apple Podcasts and Spotify require the cover to be perfectly square and between 1400×1400 and 3000×3000, but Apple has signalled that all images will need to be 3000×3000. Castos' podcast cover image creator handles the technical parts so you can focus on the design.
Where can I get podcast cover art?
Right here is a great place — this free tool lets you create your own podcast cover art in just a few clicks. If you'd rather work with a professional designer, services like 99Designs are an option, though they can be expensive if you're just getting started.
How large can my podcast cover image file be?
We recommend a JPG file under 1MB. That meets the requirements of directories like Apple Podcasts while still being high enough quality to be eye-catching for potential listeners and look great on every mobile device.
