I don't understand.. I already own the Bond 50 set.. so wouldnt I be spending more by printing out 22 covers and buying 22 cases for them?

bhampton · 10-11-2012, 06:07 PM

I just mean buying the credits at customaniacs.

For $6 you get more then enough credits and you can download the stuff you want.

I objected at first but,... It's $6 and easy.

Otherwise, yes,..you still gotta get the cases and get the stuff printed somehow.
The printing was under $20 for me at FedEx/Kinkos.
And I bought Genuine Amray cases via Amazon.

Is worth it though to have it in separate cases, in my opinion.

But do they have all 22 individual films covers. Like the brand new official ones?

bhampton · 10-11-2012, 06:19 PM

I could check for you but I bet they do.

I printed custom covers because I prefer the original movie poster cover art.

bhampton · 10-11-2012, 06:25 PM

You can do 100 searches of customaniacs dot org before buying any credits.

EDIT - OK... I'm not sure now. I looked at what they called "Scanned covers" but they still seemed to be custom covers. I don't see a cover like the stand alone Goldeneye cover for example.

I'd love to find scans of the new Bond releases, but I imagine they'll be hard to come by for several reasons. First, the new-to-BD titles are still store exclusives, meaning they're still hard to find. For the older titles, they've been around on BD for a while now so people are going to either have the new box set or the older releases. Lastly, it's a lot of effort for someone to scan 22 covers.

bhampton · 10-11-2012, 10:13 PM

I think I have the three Walmart exclusives but I'm not sure my scanner is good enough.

It's a all in one printer and it prints kind of crappy.

I downloaded custom covers and I'm happy with that. I don't actually like some of the "real" cover art.

Just purchased "Halloween" on Blu-ray. Considering the time of year I thought it appropriate to finally upgrade from the DVD. Cover scan I worked up of the original artwork available below.

Thanks for the contribution. In the land of Canada, non bilingual covers are a rarity.

aimforsilence · 10-12-2012, 06:20 PM

Thanks for adding a cover! yes the only non french covers i see are the disney releases.

It comes down to looking ugly which is why I either buy from U.S. sellers or print covers.

aimforsilence · 10-15-2012, 02:51 AM

Anyone have any of the single release Bond 50 covers yet?

AmishParadise · 10-16-2012, 01:11 PM

Request was made in another thread for a scan of the title, "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial". Happened to have one that I worked up, so I thought I'd post it here as well. Enjoy!

Nice try, but it's too low resolution to print. 3 inches at 600 dpi is not full cover size.

Proper size is 10.403w x 5.793h @ 300 dpi.

AmishParadise · 10-16-2012, 11:50 PM

I have my original scan which is three times larger than that one. Same for the Halloween scan I posted in an earler reply. Sorry. Didn't think about the fact that people print them out and that they'd be too small. For my purposes that size is perfect as my covers remain in the digital domain. I only use the front and back portions. Use them in conjunction with DVD Profiler and My Movies for WMC7, hence no need for the height to be any taller than 1080 pixels. That being said, thanks for providing the correct dimensions suitable for printing. I take it there is no advantage to scanning at 600 dpi? I've never scanned covers with the intention of printing them. Just don't know. :-p
