Abstract:
Techniques for generating a visual depiction of a cover for a digital item are provided. A base-depiction-selector-value is generated based on one or more values from attribute metadata associated with the digital item. A mapping table is then accessed to select a base visual depiction item using the base-depiction-selector-value. A visual depiction of a cover is generated for the digital item based at least in part on the selected base visual depiction item. The visual depiction is then caused to be displayed to a user on a display device. The techniques may be employed, for example, in the context of an online digital item retailer or in the context of a personal computing application to generate visual depictions of covers for digital items that users browse, purchase, download, access, or use.
