For the credits I use a font called SteelTongs. It looks so much better than when I had to use Arial Narrow.

I actually recommend not using SteelTongs, but Universal Accreditation instead, it's a much cleaner font, and the one used by the studios.

Custom Cover Battle Royale Title Selection

I voted for Air Force One. It was that or Three Kings and I think Air Force One deserves a creative cover (one that I might be interested in acquiring).

Voting goes until movie choice(s) announcement on January 15, 2011.

I skimmed through the comments and noticed BPM also wanted to do Air Force One. So I was pleased that my thinking meshed with another from this thread.

BPM is there a way to sort your mobile me gallery by most recent first? It is like where is waldo sometimes to find new artwork. Also, why did you stop the Academy Best Picture Blu set?

okay then so i will try to make a cover using new tools to make a better 3D Blu-ray Cover

tkdkid717 · 01-14-2011, 12:46 AM

I didnt realize u guys actualy typed everything out. I thought you used templates. So you make like the specifications boxes from scratch? Also, could someone give me a vector of the blu ray logo? i have been trying to trace it in illustrator, but i cannot trace the little TM, which bothers me for some reason.

You know there is a site that has tons of free logos on it... Including the blu-ray logo and many studio logos:

You know Trean... you have a good point that ordering by release is great... bu then there will be a person who want's them ordered by title name... I can re-order it, I have to remember what order I did my covers in... gosh!

Also, I never stopped my Academy set! I am still trying to make covers for the movies that are getting released on Blu, and every year I add the new winner.

And I agree, I picked Air Force one too... but I would also be happy with The sting, as that's a great movie too! Both deserve good covers! No matter what, my choice will be from the older list, I like the challenge!

Shouldn't you just be able to create a folder with all your artwork in it, then order by last file edit date? I am running under the assumption that you don't go in and edit a file after the final has been exported in HD.

Also you could just keep two separate areas if the Gallery doesn't just allow sorting options (such as sort by date and file name) to be present on site.

Good call with the files, I will try that... And I guess I could make a separate section for newest additions... I will let you know Trean when I get it together!

This might double the storage space used since you are using two different albums sorted in two different ways. That is the one downside I see. You could even just keep an album of your latest works and have like the latest 10 creations or some number.

I searched the web and found:

Sort the photos in iPhoto gallery and it will synchronize to the web gallery.

Better yet, make an album in iPhoto, organize it as you want, then publish/share it to MobileMe.
Good advice.

Thanks.

Topic : Order of Photos in MobileMe Gallery
If you upload via the mobileme gallery page not the web gallery album then they will be sorted by file name. If you upload via the web gallery album then I believe it is actually sorting the files by file size. Very strange. Test it yourself.

Here is a way to remedy this somewhat bizarre behavior. The catch is that you have to correct the sort in iPhoto in you MOBILEME GALLERY album after the files been uploaded (View -> Sort Photos). But even more bizarre is that once you set the sorting method you have to select "Reset Manual Sort" from the View -> Sort Photos menu. Then click the publish button next to the MOBILEME GALLERY album in iPhoto.

One last note, you can arrange the order manually in the MobileMe Gallery page. (Not the Web Gallery)

bpmford · 01-15-2011, 12:52 AM

Thanks for that Trean... Yea, I usually upload my preview covers straight to mobile me... But I actually have the ability to sort hem how I want, so I could make a second album and sort by creation date, or just do them standard that way!

Hey guys. I made this request a long time ago, but no replies. Can anyone help me out with a custom/scan of the alliance Final Destination 2? If it's a scan, it has to be the english title side. It's cause the cover it came with got ruined thanks to a little dog. Thanks in advance.

JJE-187 · 01-15-2011, 07:14 AM

Any of the great artist on here taking request? I really want some custom Criterion covers made but I SUCK at making covers and wanted some really cool looking ones. If you can help me PM me please. I would be willing to give out some FREE Blu-Rays if anyone can do these. I am looking for ALOT of covers though so be warned lol
