I know JoeyOhhh wants me to make one for Shaken Not Stirred, but are there any others anyone would like me to do?

JoeyOhhhh 06-16-03 10:55 PM

I received Shaken & Stirred On Ice DVD today.

I can grab the menu and any other shots you need from the DVD, just let me know your file size limit.

DarthVong 06-16-03 11:16 PM

3mb per email is my limit.

JoeyOhhhh 06-16-03 11:46 PM

You got mail.

Hope thats enough to work with.

I'll give you the credits and a brief synopsis tomorrow night.

Edited to add: Here is a shot of the flimsy cardboard it came in:

Also, there is an older version of the United Artists logo on the back if that makes a difference in how you're going to put the back of the cover together.

These covers are amazing DV! If I could, I'd really like to get ahold of your "template" so I can make my own personal versions. Would it be at all possible for you to send me (in .psd format) your DAD cover or in-progress James Bond story cover? In other words, what kind of files sizes are they?

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!

The template is 100MB in .psd format. I have no way of sending or making available for download a file that size. Sorry.... :(

JoeyOhhhh,
Thanks, got it. You wouldnt happen to own the Casino Royale DVD would you? If so, I need some screenshots from that one as well.

JoeyOhhhh 06-17-03 10:33 PM

Yeah I do have Casino Royale. I also received the Bond Essentials DVD and can hook you up with those shots also.

Sounds good, make sure to send me the specs for those for the back of the cover too. I can get the Casino Royale specs off the cover scan on DVD coverart though.

I need at least 2 menu shots of each, Main Menu and Special Features, or Scene Selections.
Then I usually need 7 screencaps of the film itself similar in tone to what is on the covers I've made already. Those should work out fine then.

Has anyone considered doing the Austin Powers movies with the James Bond template? To further the parody. Of course then people might want every movie done in a James Bond template, hmm maybe its not a good idea.
Ahwell, good work darth, looks great, I especially like that you cropped halle's face out of the spine pic of DAD, most didn't, looks better like yours.

I will already be doing an Austin Powers set using this template. I figure I did it for the Zinema covers, so I might as well use my own template and do the same.

Here's the color scheme:
Austin Powers= Neon Green
TSWSM= Red
Goldmember= Powder Blue
I picked these because they will match the colored cases that New Line switched to when they dropped using snappers.

DarthVong 06-18-03 06:57 PM

Updated the James Bond Story with new logos, and added Casino Royale.

folgersnyourcup 06-19-03 11:43 AM

How about "In Like Flint" and "Our Man Flint"?

Your covers are awesome!

bunnydojo 06-19-03 04:55 PM

These covers are so amazing I'm making custom spines for some of my other MGM titles to match. Unfortunately, I can't really find a good (color) MGM logo anywhere, and the one on the introductions before MGM DVDs isn't really that good as far as colors go. Would it be possible for you to e-mail me the MGM logo you used if it isn't that much trouble? ([email protected]) I would really, really appreciate it! :)

JoeyOhhhh 06-19-03 10:04 PM

Darth,

If its okay with you, can I email you all those screen caps on Saturday. I don't have any free time till then.

That's fine, as you can see I have plenty to keep me busy ;)

The James Bond Story is finished and ready for download.

marioxb 06-20-03 09:06 AM

What are you doing to World is Not Enough, just changing the logo color on the spine?

EBChamorro 06-20-03 10:30 AM

What is the "Shaken & Stirred on Ice" Limited Edition DVD?
How do you get it?
Thanks, Enrique

I removed the 007 logo from the poster and re-did the logo to match the rest of the set, this was requested by a DVDCA member.

DarthVong 06-21-03 01:37 AM

TWINE is done and ready for download.

JoeyOhhhh 06-21-03 01:54 AM

TWINE looks nice Darth, and you got rid of the god awful pic they used of Denise Richards on the back.

bunnydojo 06-21-03 11:37 AM

I asked this a few posts up, but it seems to have gotten lost in the shuffle. Do you think you could please send me a copy of the MGM logo you used for the spines on your covers DV? I've looked everywhere I could think of and could not find a good (color) version of the logo. I'd really appreciate it. ([email protected]).

By the way, do you have any plans of giving the same treatment to Tomorrow Never Dies that you gave TWINE, such as a cover without the 007 in the background, etc.? Or did you just do TWINE because the spine didn't match the others?

TMD is in the works now. I'll send you the file I used for the MGM logo.
