Any requests will be answered but I want to note I am leaving for 10 days in the Caribbean Saturday so I won't be able to answer most until I get back. I'm not ignoring you

Nice. WalMart let you print those there? Did they resist at first, or did they just say no problem?

They don't seem to give a rat's butt. I go in, place my order for 1 hour service and pick them up when they are done. Usually it's hockey posters and artwork (and 99% of the time my own photos as well) and all I've ever heard from the staff is how amazing they think it all is. It's also Wal-mart in Canada though, no idea what they are like in the States.

Not a BD cover but one of my other works.

I know that the cover is different, but does the 2D version come with a slipcover? I have mine on order from Amazon, and I haven't been to a store since it came out to see it in person, so I'm just curious.

Dynamo of Eternia · 09-15-2011, 03:43 PM

I'm sure people will laugh at me, but I'm using Photoshop 7.

I know it's an older version, but I was still able to install it and use it when my wife and I got a new computer last year with windows 7 on it. And considering how pricey the program is, I have no desire to spend money on a newer version.

My company paid for my Creative Suite (CS) 4.

We use InDesign and Illustrator at work a lot more than Photoshop so I am much more proficient with InDesign (in particular).

I have it but my home machine isn't powerful enough to use it

Anyone who uses Imandix and knows why I can't make a collection image in anything but big blakc boxes please shoot me a PM.

Here are my covers for the separate releases of the two Star Wars trilogies. For those of you who will buy them regardless of Vader's NNOOOO!!!, the blinking Ewoks and George's other...uhm...improvements

PM me for the HQ files

I'm liking those allot! The colored cases were a great touch!

They're generally well-done and all, but your Falcon is backwards (the cockpit is on the wrong side)

Oops! Is it obvious that I've...never seen the original Star Wars? DON'T HIT!

Seriously, I've always waited to see the unaltered movies with a decent transfer but it hasn't happened yet haha

I thought about getting a cheapie PS3 Greatest Hits game off eBay ( or from a pawn shop ) & using it's case.

Boooooooo! Guess I have to make a fake DVD set them. Thanks for the info.

You are correct, plus they're always 1-disc.

I actually think that would work for a lot of custom covers, notably the Star Wars movies.

Very nice! Could you also do one for a 3 discs bonus features cover art?

Turnda643 · 09-16-2011, 04:29 AM

if anyone has or knows who does have custom covers for the Complete Saga to fit in an Elite 6-disc case and an elite 3-disc case for the special features disc, please PM me.

I like these very much. I see you used the same title treatment I did. Some people object to it, I think it adds some freshness to the logo.

Did you make the front collages yourself? They fit marvelously.

The backs are great too. Uncluttered and elegant. Me like.

Is that red hue on the Prequel Trilogy in the image or just a reflection of the case?

No, it doesn't, and I am getting impatient for an upgrade that does.

In the meantime I've been using the "custom object" option. And then "edit object" to change the dimensions to Blu-Ray size and make the cases blue. You don't get the Blu-top on the covers, but it's a passable workaround.

You see it on all the "collection" images I've uploaded to this forum. Star Wars, Superman, The Rocketeers.

Cool tip. I just used DVD cases to get the idea of what the cases together look like. Worked well enough as I'm only using the free version anyways.
