Let's Begin.

Step One.
Go on to superimpose and have this blank photo as your background (↓︎) and your background photo of choice as your foreground. This is just to make sure your photo fits the size for a cover.

Go onto to phonto and add your text. I used the fonts VCR OSD Mono for the title and Signerica Medium for my username.

Suggestions are always welcomed but I get a lot of Picsart ones and as much as I'd like to help you guys with that app, I personally am not the biggest fan of it nor do I know how to use it as well as I can use superimpose. Sorry!
