I'm a thread crapper because I'm trying to help you?
You ignore all the good advice you get. You only listen to people who are too shy to tell you what you're doing is bad and anti-design, who give you blanket 'try this' and 'try thats' instead of telling you what you're doing wrong and how to fix it.

I'm not trying to insult you at all, but how can you call ME the thread crapper? I'm doing a graphic design course and soon will be a qualified graphic designer, I'm trying to tell you what you're doing wrong and you won't have a bar of it.

I haven't seen anything work from any of the complainers.

Fair enough, here you go then:



my latest iteration of my evil dead 2 cover

Love the Evil Dead cover, by the way.

Thanks!

And can we drop this thing against me once and for all? I'm going to continue helping people design in a very DIRECT way and I'm never doing to meander around the issue. If you can't deal with criticism then it's something you're going to need to work on because in the real world that's how it works - people don't like something, they tell you they don't like it. I'm giving the courtesy of pointing out what I don't like in order for people to fix it.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. You guys need to calm down and either let my comments be water off your back or actually listen to them and take some constructive criticism, because it IS criticism, just because something's not overly positive doesn't mean it can't help!

I'm trying to be as nice as I can!

It's a vector I did, and people are more than welcome to have the PSD:

actually hold on I'm going to organise it and then reupload it

aand there ya go, organised it a bit more

I'm surprised Rusty hasn't said anything about my works...but I'll keep my mouth shut (j/k Rusty.)

On a more serious note, I don't own Evil Dead and have never even seen any of them, but that one for The Evil Dead looks wicked. I'd have definitely used it.

If you genuinely want my advice then I'd be happy to give it, post something!
I'm a nice guy but you guys are just overly nice and that doesn't get anybody anywhere. Just being realistic.
what do you guys think of this other evil dead font?


this one or the other one?

I was just trying it out but I think I prefer the other one more.

[SethRex]

I suppose it's alright, though I think I like the other one a bit better.

Now you tell me after I've been busy modifying your png image.

Thanks Dude

Much better Superman covers, and the MKC is improved too.

Cool, thanks for the template!



I've not given up on my NES cart just yet. Since the disc didn't fit inside the case, I'm taking a DVD case, mounting the snaps into the back of the cartridge so the disc basically snaps onto the back of the cart. I'll post pics once I finish it.

Love the abundance of new covers that have shown up over the last day or so. Glad to get the thread back on track as well.

Those Hellboy covers are bad ass

[G:Box]

Dude Superman looks awesome!! That'll look BA under the gold slip, awseome job!

I could use a hand with getting some of my covers printed in high quality. PM me if you can help me out. I need to print 8 covers for 21mm spine cases and my standard size Scott Pilgrim cover.
