I use glossy photo paper, the lightest possible: 160gr. Don't know if that helps:
One of my covers is on line for download at high rez

They look good, but isn't that "Perfect Picture and Purest...blah blah" a Universal thing?

Yeah you 're right but I find that moto cooler, Paramount doesn't have one. Anyway they're supposed to be custom covers, it means we create the covers that please each of us.

I use Canon Glossy Photo Paper "Everyday Use", 170gsm. It's a little thicker than the standard covers; but I use a Canon printer, so figured I'd get Canon paper - and this was the thinnest Canon glossy paper I could find.

It feels a little tacky to the touch, but doesn't stick to the plastic on the case at all, so once you've inserted it it is fine.

Looks fanatastic too.

I've read others have had good experiences with Glossy Flyer & Brochure paper (HP I think?), but I haven't tried this myself as I am more than happy with what I am using.

Has anyone done custom covers for "Hannibal" and "Manhunter"? I want to split up the 3 movies from the Hannibal Lecter Anthology.

Something about these just feel incomplete, is Prestige a movie incapable of having good coverart? THere's so little to work with.
