These are the specs I use:

standard elite case: 3118x1748 pixels - spine starting at 124.46mm with a spine of 12.02mm

21mm Vortex case: 3195x1748 pixels - spine starting at 124.46mm with a spine of 22.35mm

I think everyone is a little different Darth!

I know you just got onto TCW and for them the standard Blu-ray case size is 3173x1762... It's the only size they will accept and it's a size that all other sites allow... It's also a bit bigger, as some have complained that the 3118 one is too small.

Darthvong · 01-17-2011, 12:21 AM

Wow didnt realize they varied that much! Thanks for the info.

I've been searching the forum for a single case cover for either Planet Of The Apes collection and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles collection with no luck. Each time I search, I end up at a post of someone requesting these covers with no response

Any chance anyone has seen either or can lead me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Yea, it sucks when trying to make them, because some places don't like certain sizes, so you have to try to find one that all of them like... or change your cover each time.

Just depends on what you are doing with your covers and if you are going to me on a few cover sites or just one!

Just want to convert some of my DVD designs to BD and update some of the collections I've done. I probably won't get as heavy into making customs as I used to be.

Found this photo on Flickr and was inspired to make a cover for Donnie Darko since this year is its tenth anniversary. Mine is in a 3-disc case with the score CD, so I made it based on that. Click to download, and I hope you guys like it!

Holy shit that's bad ass... I'll definitely use it!

We should do some sort of contest on here... I think it'd be awesome to see what everyone came up with based on a certain movie... I like seeing 10 takes on the same thing...

Not bad, but I prefer Bp's

That Donnie Darko cover is just gorgeous.

@all Reminder:

If you quote someone with an image in their posts please somehow remove the image from the quote. The most common current practice is to place "Spoiler" tags around the image and then someone can view it if he/she wishes.

Thanks for helping keep the thread looking clean so everyone can enjoy the custom cover art.

Does anyone have a Spiderman Triology custom cover art?

I looked though every page in this thread and didn't find anything. I may have missed it though.

Thanks

Aholland06 · 01-18-2011, 07:55 PM

Is anyone working on a The Social Network cover? I think it would be cool looking if the cover spanned across the front, back and spine and looked like a Facebook profile page.

If you look on the OP of this thread there may be one or two. If not, then it's likely no one has done one yet.

An artist by the name of jwshaw from DVDcoversfuzion.com has already created the cover you described. Since members of coversfuzion have the privilege of downloading the covers submitted to the site, I would recommend taking a gander over there, however it would not be wise to have someone (a member of the site) download it and distribute it to you over a public forum.

I was going to take a crack at my own version of The Social Network, but after seeing jwshaw's excellent cover, it is now clear that it will not look like the Facebook page. Instead I'll have to think of something unique.

Do we post the covers to the Mr Covers competition here? Can we post multiple entry's? I made a Three Kings one last night for fun. It was the first one I've done apart from these Tron fronts.

I would love if someone would do a Judge Dredd cover for me since my German import is on its way, but i know its a stretch, since not many people have it, but just putting it out there for any good Samaritans that want to help

Trean · 01-18-2011, 08:24 PM

The Mr Covers competition is its own entity, if you are in the competition post over there. I was simply advertising the competition to the followers of this thread.
