Pimp my Facebook cover now.
The revamp of Facebook’s profile sparked he creation of a number of web site that offer free Facebook coversfor users to add in their Timelines. Firstcovers.com, fbprofilecovers.com and covermyfb.com are a few examples of such websites where users can download a Timeline cover of their choice. However, the significant majority of these websites offer standard, non-customizable covers.
Foob.me is the first Facebook cover website that is trying to change that, offering unique and custom Facebook covers to its users. The website does that by connecting Facebook users with Cover Designers. Facebook users can visit the website and browse cover templates that can be customized with their pictures, name and other text by designers from all over the world. Users can also post cover jobs for unique ideas and let artists bid on them.
Foob Facebook Covers are customized with the user’s unique photo and text by experts that know how to make you and your profile as attractive (or ugly, if that’s what you want) as you want. Facebook users do not have to limit themselves to tired and over-used cover graphics that do nothing to express how unique they truly are.
The website claims that Facebook covers can be bought for very little money, because Designers can reproduce unique designs quickly and efficiently by using their graphic templates. Foob offers Facebook covers for as low as $2.99. Highly customized, hand made designs can be auctioned for as much as $4,000
The company claims that Timeline covers will bring self-expression and good-looks to custom Facebook profiles. Foob does go a long way to express itself, with the company’s mascot, Foob himself, being quite a character. Foob invites Facebook users to “put their face on” and to take control of the way their online profile looks by buying a custom Facebook cover. Whether users will listen, remains to be seen.
