I have this one that is not part of my 13 disc matching cover set.

Very nice cover. I'm going to start having to make a list. I can sell off my slip covers since when I start using these covers I don't want nothing hiding the awesome art work done.

What's the best way to start getting the covers by PMing you and bpmford and the other members who make them or is there a pay site I can donate $.

Thanks Awesome work......

Wow i was not looking for one for Trek but wow, that just blows away the official cover.

Any chance i can get that off of you?

Also instead of taking a flashdrive to kinko's etc... is it possable to just save the file to an optical disc and use that there?

I see you made Covers for Planet of the Apes. Did you happen to make one for the Planet of the Apes 40th Anniversary Collection 5 Disc. I just got that when it was on Amazon Lighting deal and I really don't like how the disc are placed inside makes them a pain to remove and put back.

Wondering if you or anyone else seen something made for a 5 disc Blu Ray case.

Thanks

For all those that use Fedex/Kinkos to print:

How come you don't use the online submission for print jobs? I have seen several people mention that they go into the store and use a computer there. I was just wondering, why? I was about to send in three custom bourne covers through the internet submission process and was just wondering about it before I go and do it.

neptune · 01-02-2010, 07:13 AM

I would if I knew they would come out perfectly but ive never tried it.

I didn't know you could do it online. However, I guess when I go in I like to do it myself just to know how it's getting done and that I am doing everything to my liking. That and I am usually doing a bunch of covers at once. I guess I'd rather be there in person doing it myself.

I thought I read on one of the pages someone had trouble letting them do it for copyright stuff...

It has happened before that Kinko's refuses to print covers because technically what we do isn't legal. It depends on who's working really at any given time.

Here is my attempt at a cover for Heroes Season 1 (As I am based in the UK, it has the UK ratings logos on it).
I have created it using scans of the original box that it comes in. The cover is designed for a 5 Disc Blu-ray Case (which I found on eBay from the US).
In addition to the cover, i have also scanned/edited an episode description insert which can go inside the case (It is designed to be printed double sided).

I am currently working on Series 2 and Series 3 covers!

Main Cover:

(As Requested, Main Cover with no logos!)

Insert Front:

Insert Back:

Download All (Full Resolution)
Download All (No Logo Version)

Any comments/recommendations welcome!

That's good work on the Heroes Season 1 cover.

However, I am glad that I don't live in the UK. No offense, but to me those ratings logos on the front and side of all releases just look like crap to me (not just on this set, but on all movies, TV box sets, etc). Sometimes there will be really nice cover art, and the logos just mess it up and totally distract me from it. Maybe I would feel differently if I grew up with it and were more used to it.

I know exactly what you mean, to start with I created it without the rating logos, although, when up against the rest of the Blu-ray collection, it looked odd without them compared to all the others with them!

True. I can understand where it would look odd having a set without the logos when everything else that you have does have them.

Would it be at all possible for you to put up a version without the ratings logos for us in the US? I'm actually interested in ordering the cases from Vernon Library supplies and printing these covers to Heroes takes up less room on the shelf. I already had the first 2 seasons and just got the 3rd for Christmas.

Old Bones · 01-02-2010, 02:33 PM

Great cover and I love the insert as well but those rating symbols spoil it

I have edited, and uploaded the new version with no logos to my original post.
