Cover maker preset
Car Facebook covers
Car covers are usually photos of a specific car, and most of them are press shots or someone else's picture taken at a show. This preset gives car people something different: the colors and graphics of motoring without a borrowed photo or a maker's badge. Think racing stripes on a classic coupe, checkered tiles, a dark garage with one bright accent color, or the long gradient of tail lights at dusk.
The geometric style draws square tiles with stripes and diagonals, which in these palettes reads like a checkered flag or a stripe kit. The gradient style with the dark palette makes a clean, glossy background like a paint swatch. Bokeh turns into city lights through a windshield. Oswald, a tall condensed font, keeps the type looking like a number on a race car door.
Car makers' logos, model badges and grille designs are trademarks, so the preset leaves them out. That's why the old gallery's car-brand pictures are not here. If you own the car, your own photo of it is the best cover you can have, and you can use the maker to test where the text goes before you build the final version.

Tips for cars & motoring covers
Pick your paint first
Most owners know their car's paint color. Put it in the third slot with the color picker and keep the first two dark. The stripes and tiles then pick up your color as an accent, like a stripe on a dark body.
Classic stripes, two colors only
For a vintage look, use a two-color palette: dark blue with white stripes, or red with white. Set the last three colors close to each other so the geometric style doesn't add too many shades.
Clubs and meets: date in the small line
"Cars and coffee, Sundays 8 a.m." is the most useful thing a club cover can say. Put the place in the small line, and update it when the meet moves.
Repair shops and detailers
A business Page cover should show what you do and how to book. "Brakes, tires, diagnostics" in the main line and a phone number or "Book online" in the small line works better than a photo of a random engine.
Speed with waves
The waves style in dark blue and orange looks like motion blur on a night road. Turn the shape density down so the layers stay smooth.
Keep it in the middle
Phones trim the sides of every cover. If you upload your own car photo later, keep the car inside the center area shown by the phone crop overlay.
