Sorry but these covers are based on a template design by Donnie from Customaniacs, so your not proving to yourself that you can make an original design your just proving you can copy someone's work, there are a number of people at Customaniacs that use the same template.

if you can show that you can design original cover then i'm sure you'll be approved. Use the W.I.P for some help, it's helped A LOT of designers here.

If the template has been put out there for free use, then I cannot see a problem with using them to create your covers

I don't have the template from Donnie, I made it myself... I already send a couple of PM's to him, but didnt recieved any answer (he wasn't at CM till february), therefor I decided to create a template based on his and continue to work in his style...
