Official Custom Cover Art Thread(Archived Posts)

[Danimal]

very cool...I got what I like for my cover art...very basic looking, but it looks good enough to where I can condense some of my trilogy's into a 3-disc case And I'll have single and double cases empty for any replacements

So if you want to show a small version of the cover you have created check the checkbox to resize it to 640X480 and just click upload, you then post it here by putting it in tags, ie

[img]Link goes here[/img]

Dont forget to upload the full version also (the one people will actually download and print) You can also put a custom message in like "full download" by using tags [url= ] [ /url]. For example:

[url= www.blahblahblah.com ]Custom Message Here[ /url]

PS there will be no spaces between the = or the [ i needed to put them there to be able to show you what to type

Hope this is what you mean

I think so. I'll have to try it whenever I get home from work, but thanks a lot!

Thats pretty funny. He banned me from his site because I emailed someone a cover that asked for it on the AVS forum. I have another account that I use from work though so its not like he keeps me from viewing the covers. The guy is juvenile.

Liking the Matrix cover ivan ... Right now I have my trilogy in a single case, but it is a quick conversion of a DVD one I found ... My only question is: I have my movies in a standard-sized 3-Disc case, is the one you are making formatted for a larger case (The spine looks wider)? I may have to steal the thicker one I'm using for my Ocean's Trilogy...

Great work tho!!!!

Ok, for all of the Adobe Photoshop fancies out there...I'm getting frustrated...my rectangular marquee tool is not rectangular...each corner gives is curved...it's not the 90 degree angle it should be...I've tried restarting the program, and my laptop but neither has resolved the issue...anyone have an idea on how to reset this tool?

Something tells me his 'banned member' list is longer than his active member list.

[DIRTY MONEY]

Man, you guys have some AWESOME covers!

Yea, I hope he bans me ... It seems to be the hot new thing!!!

(Either way, I won't be using his site any more, I don't want to support the crap he does!!!)

Check your 'Feather" setting (just underneath the layer and select tabs) is at 0 px

Thanks got that figured out....now Here's one I made for Kill Bill, to combine both movies into one case...

[Craig02]

^^
Im liking the idea but i think you need higher quality images as when it comes to printing i think they will be blurry

[Danimal]

yes they are blurry, but it was all I could find for the time being...once I have enough time to find higher quality images, it should look a lot better

Nice work with these, although I hate Twilight, and will never have to use these...
