Nice cover. Would it work better to have an imaga of Bardem on there somewhere? The Bond girl you have on there didn't really play that big a part in the movie I thought. Just wonderin'.

Incidentally, it's a mystery to me why I cant find any good artwork for Fast Times at Ridgemont High. I can find at least one neat poster for every movie so far but not for that one.

I been looking for artwork for that one too lol, I seen a custom cover using this image but it was years ago on dvdcoverart.com and I can't seem to find it anywhere now in hi-rez

Try this one, it's not perfect (pixelated a little) but it's 2684px × 4078px:

This one is better (2,612px × 3,924px) but you'll have to erase the paper creases :

So who is gonna create a custom cover of Lawrence of Arabia with the boxset art? Blows the single disc edition AWAY.

[Show spoiler]

no offense or anything, but i can't stop staring at the arm holding the gun on the front. it looks so out of place, it was the first thing i picked up. it doesn't line up with the way his body is, almost looks like it is coming out of his stomach or someone else is holding the gun. was that picture of connery supposed to look like that, or did you add the arm in there?

anyway, just my 2 cents. the rest looks good.

Illest Villain · 11-12-2012, 04:50 PM

If someone could scan the front I'll do it.

For some reason I keep thinking of some sort of snl james bond skit when I read these post lol

No offense taken. That is the "official" key art, and I used it as is. You can see here how they based it on a publicity shot of Connery and airbrushed him almost beyond recognition. They made his eyes blue, filled in the hair to make it look thicker, and did something weird to his mouth. As you can see that tux and the arm are taken from some other photo.
Manipulation like this is what makes "photoshopping" a derogatory term.

I've settled on using official art without falling for the temptation to "improve" it, so you'll see similar blemishes on the other covers as well.
