Things that help
—Apple Podcasts wants 1400 to 3000 pixels square. Use 3000.
—Cover art appears at roughly 100 by 100 pixels in directory listings. Test at that size.
—Use a single dominant colour. Shows with clean colour stories are recognisable in a grid.
Common questions
Can I use a selfie for cover art?
If the lighting is good, yes.
What about multiple hosts?
Process each separately, then composite into a single layout.
Does Spotify have different requirements?
