Okay, here's my 2-movie case of Meet the Parents & Meet the Fockers. I still have some work to do with the photos on the back, but other than that, I think it's pretty much done. I actually decided to not include the photo of Jinx the cat in the middle on the front (it looked too cluttered). I usually like to include the UPC on the back, but I chose not to in this case.

Shouldn't you have both titles on there somewhere?

I was thinking the same thing, but I hate having two movie titles on the spine or on the front, so I'm not completely sure where to put it. Plus, I think of "Meet The Parents" as the name of the series, not just the first movie. I suppose I could put something above the synopsis on the back saying something like "Includes 'Meet the Parents' and 'Meet the Fockers'" or "Also Includes 'Meet the Fockers'". I'll have to play around a little more.

I would love to have a full criterion look in my collection.

The more I see it the more i like it.

Maybe you could call it the "Meet The Parents Collection" or something like that.

Hello, I really would appreciate if you posted the covers of Weeds season 4, 5, 6 and 7, because here are only to 3.
I love the work you do here, and the truth is it's amazing.
Of course many thx for your time, regards.

I made this a while back and never did anything with it, including not having the printing ability to test it.
Rather than just delete it, I wanted to make it available, in case anyone wants to give slip cases a try.

Theoretical instructions:
- Print the front/spines on a page and make the necessary folds. Then, cut that out.
- Print and cut out the back.
- Use glue or tape to attach the flaps from the front/spines cutout to your back.

And here is an example of the template filled in, using my Inception design:

Speaking of slipcovers, made one for Clash of the Titans earlier this week. Not a fan of the movie at all, hated it for the most part. But i have the Blu-ray sitting on my shelf(it was a gift) and thought i at least had to replace the awful artwork. So i made a slipcover to cover it(with matching inlay for the case itself coming soon):

Mixed some artwork with the background style of Wrath of the Titans, might make one for that one also when i get an idea for it. Awful movies, but i have to admit the promotional artwork has some really great stuff to work with.

Hello all. I'm new to this part of the site. going to start (try) and combine many of my series and sequels together.

My question is, how do i obtain covers for printing? or what steps do i need to take to do buy them or whatnot?

Thanks.

+1 I may have to try this with titles I love that didn't get slips or even the harder to find ones

mdewater · 04-12-2012, 04:17 AM

Very nice runndersdialzero!

What paper do you print your covers on?

runnersdialzero · 04-12-2012, 05:07 AM

Semi-glossy. The flimsier the better.

bondfooll · 04-12-2012, 06:52 AM

I'm sure this has already been asked and answered somewhere in here, but where can one get a copy of the original cover art? I'm getting the Best Buy exclusive version of Mission Impossible 4, but I prefer the general release's cover. So where can I get a copy of that to replace the other?

Any chance of sharing the file of the Benjamin Button cover? Would love to put the movie in an actual criterion case.

+1...I can't stand seeing my copy in its blue case in amongst all my other Criterion titles.

runnersdialzero · 04-12-2012, 11:52 AM

I do have a file for Benjamin Button Criterion. Email me at runnersdialzero@gmail.com if you want it. Thanks!

Ok, that is just full of awesome ! I wish I could have my collection look like that ! Do you make them all?

krazeyeyez · 04-12-2012, 07:35 PM

Well i pm'd dv8 about it, but not sure how active he is of late as its been a while since i have visited this thread.

I am looking for a custom cover preferably as the original is bland, but i would accept that as well for MOON.

I hit up blockbusters closing sale today and got a copy of moon in new condition without a case or cover art. I have cases on hand but other then the few covers i have got through requests here i have no idea how else to get them in a printable format.

As someone who is very OCD about my collection

its killing me that case has no insert. Can anyone help me out with a stop gap.
