Modern library books
Some books inspired in the desing of modern books like those you can find in modern supermarkets or libraries.
Based in my short novels Robot Love - M0th3r and Robot Love - B0yfr13nd you can find in wattpad and itch.io.
The synopses on the back of the books were written by me.

The Robot Love covers desings were not made by AI, just some simple random desings in Blender and Krita.
You can use them as is or modify as you need.
Made in Blender 3.3.1 and Krita 5.2.6

Do you use AI for the majoirty of your work or just textures and writings?
Hi Nineball. I use AI when is reliable or usefull to use. When i actually need it and i can use it. Sometimes for creating textures, exploring ideas, drafting, editing or in coding tasks (like prototyping, analyzing complex/bad documented code, using it to create complex pieces of code or debugging.)
Is not like i use it for all all the time, but like i said. When i actually need it.
If you are wondering if my posts here in OGA are AI generated. No, It is forbiden to upload AI generated artwork here. All my posts here are AI free. I have posts with stuff generated with AI in other places like itch.io or whattpad (Robot Love - M0th3r or the WAYB props in itch for example).
I am not an artist, at least not proffessional of course. I like to create things (games mostly) as a practice to get better at it, hopefully to get a new job in the future. haha.
Sorry if this is like a too long 'explanation' or 'apology' but as a 'pro-ai' i am a bit worry or nervous i could receive a lot of hate due my posture. :-(
And sorry if i writte something hard to read. English is not my mother language.
Editorial OGA <3 Sarah Publishing House
If you happen to make a game remix of this one day (or if I do):
Should be possible to make fake games with assets from here, but physical games are also somewhat outdated at this point.
fyi, this cant be cc0 if it includes the sara face (Sara Publishing House)
if you follow the link to your listed source, https://opengameart.org/content/game-webcam-overlay you will see that the sara face in that submission is only part of the preview image, not the actual cc0-licensed asset. the actual sarah face is by spring spring and is cc-by 3.0. (https://opengameart.org/content/sara-sketch-portrait-improvement)
I copied that error in my names, but Sara is written without H
(First was: https://opengameart.org/content/sara-wizard)
Not Sara, but you could try one of these heads maybe:
The incorrect logo for the fictional publishing house has been replaced with this one: https://opengameart.org/content/casual-avatars due to confusion over the copyright of the original resource.
Thanks to Baŝto for providing the alternative.
Thanks for the quick adjustment.
This may be a bit late since you already made the adjustment, but 2DPIXX made a CC0 version of Sara in .svg format. Let her know if you (or anyone) may find it useful.
Was that released here on OGA as a submission somewhere? I actually was looking for it (for this submission here), but couldn't find it outside of the cross promotion post.
It's probably best to also replace the preview, at least three of them contain the old loge.
"Dance of Rebirth" is the only book without a barcode PNG.
The descriptive text of "Jane - the accountant" reaches into the name on the side of the book.
Most books have have lines on the back of the book misaligned or at least the pattern isn't clear.
The publisher logo on "Girl with Knife" collides with a red stripe.
The title of "Girl and Beast" is cut off on the front and just says "Girl and Beas".
I just noticed and am probably overthinking this but don't books usually have ISBN and a barcode derived from it? For EAN-13 ISBNs get prefixed with the country code of "bookland" 978. Though I can't find any prefixes in any of them reserved for private/fictive use.
Part of it would be a group/publisher prefix. Editorial OGA and Sarah Publishing house use different barcode lengths for their books.
Maybe we need LaTeX templates for fictive books? :S Okay that part isn't entirely serious, but also kinda is. That could be easier to remix. The point of TeX is somewhat to separate content and layout, so it should look good no matter what you write.
There are at least some templates already around:
Now I wonder if I can print them as real physical fake covers for other books.
Thought a bit about ISBN-13/EAN-13
EAN has the prefix 0000000: Used to issue Restricted Circulation Numbers within a company
That are 7 zeroes. Source: https://www.gs1.org/standards/id-keys/company-prefix
One could use ISBN-13, but start with G78 instead of 978, which looks similar but is invalid since ISBN doesn't allow letters. I'd tread the G as a 4 for the checksum digit in ISBN numbers.
To fit that EAN prefix such ISBNs would need to start with G78-000.
That would result in:
ISBN G78-0000-???-??-? (478-0000- for checksum calculation)
EAN 0'000000'??????' (last one is also checksum digit, but different one)
We'd have 5 digits left + checksum digit. Since EAN would be for any fake product, not just books, it might make sense to do:
I doubt that we could ever create 100 products for a company and the majority will probably be single-product companies. 100 book are maybe possible for a library where the texture only has the side piece you can see, but even then it would boring if all were from the same publisher.
I'd propose:
Skipping a bunch of combinations and starting with 00 to have less zeroes in a row.
First books would be:
I used https://freeisbn.com/check-digit/ and https://barcode-maker.com/de/Ean13 for these checksums. (For now.)
For the number below the barcode, it could maybe be written with an O instead of 0 as first character. Now we just need something to start with A :D
