Put your cover in the True Crime chart
This is Apple’s current top 100 for True Crime in the United States, the largest of the ten stores on this site. Add your artwork once and it shows up in all four views: in a library row at 55 pixels, on the browse wall, at every size on its own, and against Apple’s file requirements. If you publish elsewhere, the other nine charts are linked below and each one is genuinely different.
Your image is read by your own browser and never sent anywhere. No account, no upload, no limit. Add it once and every view below uses it.
True Crime in ten countries
Each of these is a separate Apple chart with its own top hundred. The six covers shown are the current top six in that store. Follow one to see the whole hundred and to place your cover in it.

Other genres
What True Crime covers actually do
Desaturated photography, fog, woodland, a road at night, type in a thin serif or a distressed sans. Morbid, Coerced, The Piketon Massacre and Casefile all sit in the same narrow band of greys and greens. The two that break out do it by ignoring the convention completely: a white field with a purple mark, or a flat yellow.
At 55 pixels
Dark on dark is the genre risk. At 55 pixels the atmospheric photograph becomes a single dark square, and if the type is also dark there is nothing left to read. True Crime has the shortest names of any genre, which helps, but only if the name is set against something.
