Which site will the SONG OF THE SOUTH cover be on?

Thanks

www.dvdcoverart.com when it comes back up and he gets time to process it..

I hope to have dvdcoverart back up shortly (it's down for "server maintenence") -- thanks for your patience

If its my cover you're talking about, I can send it to you as eps file or as an uncrompessed tif in 32bit colour but I doubt you will get a better printing result with it...

Sebastian

Whats the appropriate sized font to use on a cover, because I can't seem to get it right.

Sizes for back text and logo text are what I'm looking for.

Finished a new cover and thought you might want to have it too
So heres a little preview...



you can find the high-res version on my homepage in the "my stuff" section...

Sebastian

you mispelled "Independence"

Sebastian let me be the first to say Thank You for the great Idle Hands cover. I have been hoping someone would create a custom for it.
Jesse E.

Thanks, and I nearly thought I was the only one that was unhappy wis the original cover artwork

@Londo fixed the typo, also added a little black border to make it easier to cut out...


Sebastian

Sebastian i hated it the moment i bought it a few years ago! I love these custom covers, do you have any other covers in the works? maybe Crouching Tiger using the teaser poster?
Jesse E.

So you mean those of us who have already d/l the first cover have a limited edition variant cover?

WHOO HOO. eBay here i come!!

Seriously Sebastian, thanks for the cover -- it is cool. There's only one thing wrong with it...not enough JESSICA ALBA! Especially the scene in the auto shop. [you know which one i'm talking about...]

ROTFL yeah but too late... you could have catched the ultimate rare version with two other spelling errors...

Hehe I bet you wouldn't waste a second if there would be a directors cut with some skinny dippin or tanning involving the sweet Ms. Alba Me neither To bad Dark Angel got canceled

@JJ-187 I have CTHD already on my list, just a matter of time bevore I will have one ready

www.dvdcoverart.com has been down for a couple of days now...MDX, do you know when it will be back up again?

had to switch hosting companies, as I was using more bandwidth than they though I should (~10gb/month)

the site will be back up as soon as the DNS changes take place. I'm in the process of uploading everything to the new server now.

going through http://www.dvdcoverart.com/ withdrawl

its up for me

It's UP! It's UP! It's UP!

Yay!!!



I swear it wasn't up when i posted that...

it's me again... just finished a custom cover for New Lines THE HIDDEN dvd... here's a little preview:



What do you guys think? Better then New Lines cover or not?

In case you like it, you can get the full-sized version from my homepage ...

Sebastian: Personally, the spine should have some color other than green, IMO. I wasn't too thrilled with the front cover of New Line's version; I think yours is better. The back of New Line's was pretty decent, showing the menu screen too. I think their version edges yours simply for that reason (although I prefer your color scheme.

BTW, your Hellraiser cover is great! Also, although I'm not a fan of Idle Hands, that cover is leaps and bounds above the crap that the studio designed. Well done!

(And www.dvdcoverart.com is still not up for me...)

Looks pretty darn good Sebastian. It's definitely better than NL cover. The only thing I would recommend adjusting is the green picture tone of Kyle McLaughlin on the spine and maybe change the tagline on the front cover to either white or black lettering, for it's a little difficult to make out. Nice job

Thanks for the comments. I think I´ll leave the spine like it is, another color would IMHO break the color schemeof the whole cover. The only think I donÄt quit understand is why you like it when they have a picture of the menu on the cover... it's imho pretty useless...

Thanks But I hope you like my Hellbound cover too

Well it's working for me

Thanks! I could put back the standard color for Kyles face, but I found it kinda stands out to much rather then blending in... and for the tagline... its much better readable when printed out... I had it in white first, but it was too much of an eye catcher and diverted too much attention from the main motive... but I guess thats just a normal matter of taste

Another great cover Sebastian. are you gonna try A.I. using the original poster? how about Hollow Man? or Kiss Of The Dragon? or The One? there are so many bad covers out there that i'm sure i'm forgetting alot.
Jesse E.

Sebastian: As for the menu screen on the back, call me weird. From a marketing standpoint, the menu makes sense. These alternative covers are supposed to replace the standard studio covers, so they are for fans of the movies (or haters of snappers). When I designed a cover for an issue of Inside DVD with the old black & white Little Shop of Horrors, I included a pic of the original Inside DVD coverslip (had Freddy Krueger on it) as a...marketing gimmick, I guess.

Hellbound? Cover's pretty good and works well, but I *really* like the Hellraiser one.

As for Idle Hands, based on your cover, I'm thinking about renting the flick. I saw it in the theater and was pretty disappointed. However, maybe I should give it another chance. After all, if I like it, I'll buy it and then I can use your amazing cover. (I'm serious too. Call me weird.)

Oh, and www.dvdcoverart.com is finally back up for me. Woohoo!
