Tearing my hair out.

When I dragged and dropped the front cover PNG onto the template in Gimp it was way too small. How do I get the picture cover as a PNG format to fit the template?

Kindle want images with a resolution of 300 pixels-per-inch (ppi). That means starting again and making your image 1500 x 2400 pixels. Scaling up your existing artwork will not work, a 3 times scale will be blurred. (but you can try it).

Note: If there are any margins required, the image is correspondingly smaller (size in inches x 300 ppi = size in pixels)
