I was not knocking a contributing site for covers, nor was I trying to discourage the idea. I love Darth's covers and appreciate the great work he does. I hope he continues to post his covers. I was only mentioning the fact that Matt has so many great covers on his site that maybe we could all try to keep his site up as well as the new ones cropping up.
Eventually, eveyone uses the diffrent sites for covers they need. The more out there the better. I don't think 1 site will be enough for all the covers, eventually we will run out of room there also.

Jason. EXCELLENT work on the Nightmare on Elm Street covers.

Keep up the good work :thumbsup:

Sebastian Bach 10-04-02 11:00 PM

Yep same UPC code number as my Halloweens......where have I seen that before??????? could it be the backs to my Halloween customs that I made????? hmmmm interesting......You should have at least changed the UPC code. All my customs have the same UPC code. That's what I use as a signature.
Would that be considered customizing a custom?
But it does look good though. :)

I'm still looking for those UPC codes? I can't seem to find any UPC seal at all, on any of the 8 Nightmare covers???????

It'll be available for download on my site soon. I'm updating the site now.

He probably removed them. I emailed him and asked if he wouldn't mind taking them off. If you look at my customs all of them have the exact same UPC code. It's kinda like a signature for my covers.

I've been spending so much time on my site I haven't had time to do too many covers...... Those are very good!

BTW: I lost your email address. I still want to post some of your covers on my site. If you're still interested in it, email me.
Thanks,

Can anyone tell me what is the exact size of a cover? The people at KINKO's asked me to tell them what size I need the covers printed out but I think I messed up.

Do you just tell them 10.75/7.25?

Thank you so much for your help and sorry if there' s a definitive answer to this questions......I looked and oculd not find it...

10.8" x 7.25" @ 300dpi will size it right.

I'd also contribute to get dvdcoverart back up. It's getting confusing and depressing not having a central site.

Hey marioxb, would the custom Pearl Harbor cover happen to be a 4-disc aplha using the original poster artwork? (the one with the "Faces")

FrostyLizard 10-06-02 01:34 AM

Does anyone know where I can get inserts for Warner Brothers releases that dont have inserts, because the info is printed on the inside cover? I am running out of room to store my more than 500 DVD`s so Im starting to keep them in a case logic carry album that allows you to put the insert on one side of the page and the DVD on the other. Each carry case can hold up to 50 DVD`s. This way I can put all the DVD boxes in a big box or boxes in the attic and keep all my DVD`s on one shelf in these cases. The problem being I cant put inserts with the DVD`s because the Warner discs dont have any. Is it possible to find someplace to be able to print out inserts for Warner discs?

WB replacement Digipack for V:TFB?
 
How good is WBHV's customer service for replacing damaged cases? Their "security sticker" peeled off some of the black ink from my "V: The Final Battle" DVD case. As you probably know, the black motif is integral to the look of the cover, and little white spots detract from it. I don't want to just run over them with a sharpie, because it would be noticeable, IMO.

Thoughts?

Back on my meds,

You could put it in a request for the inserts you need and some people on this board may be able to locate/make them for you. Or if you have a scanner, scan them and resize them to 120mm x 180mm.

marioxb 10-06-02 08:09 AM

Angel
Thanks. No problem.


Hey marioxb, would the custom Pearl Harbor cover happen to be a 4-disc aplha using the original poster artwork? (the one with the "Faces")
Well, yes and no. It's the cover from the original release non-Vista Series version I downloaded off of dvdcoverart.com a while ago and modified it to reflect the features of the Vista Series one. I don't have any four disc cases, so it's only for a slim double amaray. My idea was to put the two movie discs in one case and the two special discs in another case. Still working on a case for the special discs. It'll probably be the original Vista Series scan modified to list only the special features, not the movie. Is there a way to post pictures (or just a preview of it) on here if I don't have a web site? If there is, I can post a picture of it. Also, I can probably modify it a bit more to fit a four disc case if I knew the dimensions (in pixels).

I don't know about getting an actual replacement, but I can send you the scans I downloaded from dvdcoverart.com, one for just The Final Battle, one with both The Final Battle and the original in the same case, if that would help.

Alright, here are some smaller preview images of covers I've done recently. I'll try to find someplace to upload the full-size versions if someone wants any of these. I'll admit they probably aren't as high quality as many of the customs these threads produce, but I'm personally very happy with them, and they certainly look much better than the ugly covers that come on these DVDs to begin with.

The first four were done using the original movie posters (some US and some international), and the JFK cover simply removed the huge "Oliver Stone Collection" border.

I appreciate it, but I want to rule out WBHV wanting to send me a replacement case. Gotta hand it to the Digipack, it's all in one. Keepcases, you can replace the plastic and the art fairly easily. Snappers, I'm now hearing Ivy Hill will send you replacements for damaged hubs (still SOL for replacement art), but Digipacks are whole: Plastic hubs glued to the cardboard art. As far as replacability, this is the worst of all possible worlds!

That said, how do I contact WBHV regarding this issue?

Oooh, I like the JFK cover without the stupid Oliver Stone border. :)
Could you possibly e-mail that to me (if it's under 5 megs)?

Cosmic Bus 10-06-02 01:52 PM

I can try, but large files never seem to go through with my ISP. Do you happen to have AIM or maybe know an IRC channel we could meet in?

Cosmic Bus 10-06-02 02:41 PM

Well wonders never cease.

Geoff, you've got mail. :)

pro-bassoonist 10-06-02 03:06 PM

Hey cosmic bus:

These are very good! I see that you have some taste for international covers. Could you by any chance put your cratf into these:

THE CELL(French)
Mulholland Drive(German)
Run Lola Run-(German)
The way of the Samurai(French)
Gossip(British)
Vatel(French)


For Run Lola Run you could leave the geramn text...same as VATEL.....

Can you do these though.....?????? That would be awesome....

Thanks, Mountain Biker! Yes, if/when DVD Coverart comes back, I probably will submit them.

Perhaps if we make a small donation on a regular basis we can use DVDCoverart as our contribution site and we will all be happy.

Just a thought.

MAybe we could convince Geoff K. to set up a small "subscription based" service with Matt through DVDtalk. I'd be willing to pony up a few $ for a years worth of dvd covers. I'll email geoff...

hi, im looking for the cover of shawshank redemtion with the alternative poster...

anyone got a link?

also i´m looking for a cover for chickenrun, the one I got is in Italian and I dont master that language so its kind of anoying.

JoeyOhhhh 10-07-02 07:41 PM

I'm having a slight problem scanning. It seems there are streaks appearing on the image after it is scanned. I'm not sure if the scanner is reflecting off of the cover (the black parts atleast) or the bed is dirty and needs to be cleaned.

Anyone have a similar problem and know how to fix it?

DarthVong 10-07-02 08:13 PM

Sounds like your scanner is dirty. I had a similar problem with my old scanner, no matter how much I cleaned it the streaks were stil there. I had to buy a new scanner. I hope that's not your problem....
