There are many sites offering free, print-ready CC0/public domain illustrations, photographs & vector graphics. Eg, Pixabay offers 4.4 million images, Unsplash 3 million.
Many fonts are also free for commercial use. And you can put the design together in free Open Source software.
With so many free images/fonts available, it's easy to create multiple design concepts for your book/product). And it's all done with the consent of the artists/photographers/typographers.
There's no excuse.
I mean, this is 20 mins work using free software, images, etc. Even a non-designer could manage this after they've learned the basics, which really wouldn't take long at all.
@Richard_Littler The #AI generation will never know the satisfaction of developing new artistic skills and creating something unique and beautiful. The ghastly output they pretend is art may be punishment enough.
