I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I just got my copy of Iron-Man 2 from the UK. Its perfect except for one thing, the spine "sticker" is moved over. Is it possible to detach it, center it and re-attach it? Or should I just leave it alone? Keep in mind that I'm not the handiest person. Thanks in advance.

Yes use a hair dryer to heat it up for a few minutes then slide something very thin and plastic down the back to get it off ( I say plastic so you don't scratch the inside art). You can now reattach it to your desired position.

Yep this is what I followed.

I am starting to understand this process,It is easy enough to print two pics the same size, but, how do you get the inside "spine" part
I guess I mean the size etc - is there a template anywhere for the whole thing?

That looks great. I wanted to add artwork to these two but My Hp photosmart all in one printer doesn't seem to work properly with photopaper (semi gloss). If work fine on regular paper but when I apply photopaper the picture comes out with a high die coloration. Really irritating.

BlackRob183 · 10-01-2012, 04:04 AM

OK I need some help before I do some insides. I'm looking at doing 2 new steelbooks that I have right now that have no insides. But what program do you guys use because the one I am using seems to take to much time and I have to edit the pics myself before putting them in the program. So it's kinda free balling it, and they work out kind so far but I have never done the spine before and I wanna try and do the spine on these 2.

Also what method do you guys use for taking the spine OFF and what method do you use for putting it back ON? I have see different methods before and then someone always posts after that it doesn't work or that it's not the best and then this way is better and this. Does anyone have a good writeup that clears all this up, or video or something?

MikeCL · 10-01-2012, 04:21 AM

I used the steelbook temeplate someone posted awhile back and in photoshop I resized to fit it.

For the spine I used a hair dryer and a utility blade and slowly (without bending) the metal strip up.

When it was time to put it back on I used rubber cement.

it does not come up after being put back on.
