Is there a way to convert a DVD scan for a slim case?
I want to put some of my snappers into thin cases. Many of them have scans on dvdcoverart.com, but only for regular keepcases.
Does anyone have any tips for converting those images for a slim case? I see there is a template for it on the coverart website, but I'm not sure the best way to use it.

Download the free trial of DVD Cover Print from www.cnet.com
I'm almost positive you can do it with that.

I asked a very similar question. From what I understand, you should resize each panel individually (i.e., front, spine, back) and insert it into the template on DVDCoverart.com.

I was stuck for a bit trying to figure out how to resize it by pixels, but I finally got it down.

So I tried to do this with dvd cover print, and it printed in really low quality, no matter how I tried to do it. I ended up just resizing the spine and dumping the files into a new canvas in paint shop pro, merging the layers, and saving. Works very, very well, and it's really easy to convert nearly any artwork.
