Cool. He didn't list it in the newest update, but I'll check in every couple of days.

Btw, I second the motion of a Reform School Girls cover using the original poster art. The Anchor Bay cover is pretty lame.

Hey Rogue how about a custom spine and back for They Live? It looks kinda weird with the fingers coming out of Hot Rod's head

Re: Ahh, Paul Champagne...

Will there be a version that can hold the Super Jewel Case that held the various picture-disk releases of ED1? What about the BOTD itself? It is essentially the same proportions as a keepcase, with 3d embellishments. Will that fit, with some squishing?

PC does beautiful work, though.

Hey, sorry for my tardy reply, was kinda obsessed with my Mononoke Hime cover But back to the case. Since it's a custom case and it's from Paul Champage you should be able to get it in the size you like. I designed the artwork to exactly fit a box with two amarays and a double alpha case, but AFAIK Paul will make it fit for any configuration you might have. I gave Paul the cover in two parts, the background plate and the text plate, so you can even put on the text the way you like it... Hope that helps...

Sebastian, that Mononoke cover rules! It has already been printed and replaced my old one.

Btw, my scanner doesn't seem to work very well, so I'm having a hard time providing a scan of the spine/back of my Judge Dredd DVD. Can anyone else help out on this?

I sent the hi-res Road Warrior cover over to Matt for posting on www.dvdcoverart.com. So, barring it getting bounced back to me or any further ISP problems, check over there.
EXCELLENT...Thanks again!

Hi Guys

I am requesting a cover for the Scifi Channel's SECRETS OF FRANK HERBERT'S DUNE and TOTAL MOVIE #8. Can anyone help?

Today I received my 40 movies from TOTAL MOVIE magazine. Talk of lousy covers!!
Anyone considering making a box cover for this lot?

Thanks in advance

Randy

A box?

40 pd movie box set?

Sounds like a natural for Paul Champagne.

Of course, paying PC for a metal case for free movies, reminds me of Bill Murray's line from Stripes: "My philosophy: a hundred-dollar shine on a three-dollar pair of boots."

Back on my meds,

CS

Hey just thought i would warn anyone who is considering buying any of the "Spider" type DVD cases @ inetdvd, Very few covers will actually fit in them. I tried about 20 diferent covers from different studios and ones printed of dvdcoverart and only about 4 fit in OK the others were all too big. On the other hand anyone looking for a great slim 2-Disc case should check out the ones @ c4component, They are great cases and they don't flap around like the Amaray cases, but the still have a place for books & inserts unlike the AlphaPAK slims @ inetdvd.

Issue #1: What do you guys use to print covers? I'm not made of money, but I need a new printer. I've been looking at inexpensive Lexmark inkjets and was wondering if one would be sufficient. They all claim "photo quality," but I'm not exactly sold.

Issue #2: What kind of paper would you recommend? Is regular paper okay? How about "bright white" HP paper? Or should one use high quality glossy photo paper?

Thanks!

Well, as far as printers.. I just bought a Canon S520 and it's great.. I can 'lie' to it an tell it to print on 'legal' paper and it will fit a standard case cover on standard letter paper.

Nope, I don't have a job like that, but I would love to have a job like this some day

Lexmark isn't bad, but if I recall right they really make the money with the ink cardriges wich are really expensive. So if you plan to print a lot of dvd covers you might wan't to look out for a printer that has cheaper ink cardridges preferably one for each color...

Issue #2: What kind of paper would you recommend? Is regular paper okay? How about "bright white" HP paper? Or should one use high quality glossy photo paper?
I would recommend to use high quality matte photo paper wich delivers printouts nearly indistinguishable from originals...

Thanks Londo. I'll check out the Canon S520.

Thanks Sebastian. The Lexmark I was looking at was $70 or so, including two full cartridges. I doubt I'll print many covers, but I'll definitely be printing some of yours. Do you think the Lexmark will be sufficient?

There were some really really really nice looking posters on the Hannibal DVD. Of course, they're a little too low res I suppose to use...

And a lot of people here don't think it's a great movie like I do...

If you're not planning to print more then may 15-20 covers I would say the Lexmark should be sufficient. I don't know how much covers the lexmark can print with a single set of ink cartridges, so I can only assume that it will be around the same amount as my epson photo 820 , that can print 22 covers with a single set of ink... The only real tip I can give you is not to invest in annything with more then 1400dpi because you want see a diffrence between 1440 and 2880dpi...

Hey I love this movie! But doing a custom cover with one of the artworks from the dvd will be pretty much impossible since these alternative artworks were never released...

But if I find a little spare time I will do a cover for my code 4 dvd set of Hanibal...

Yes, a real shame. I mean, I can take pictures of them off the DVD, but they'd just be too low res.
