For everyone who wanted Saturday Night Fever but couldn't handle the attachment size:

Another member clued me in to dividing the cover into self-extracting volumes. Doing this means that I can send one half of the cover at a time, thereby reducing the size of each attachment to something more manageable. Once you've received both halves (in separate emails), you simply open the first (using whatever image editing software you prefer) and your computer will apparently recombine the two halves automatically (with no loss of quality, of course). If this interests any of you, email me and I will make arrangements to send you the cover this way (i.e. I send you one half, you email me back to let me know you've received it and had time to clear it from your inbox, and then I send you the second half). Sound good?

rknewbow,

Thanks for that scan of Insomnia.

Chris,

Is there something wrong with your site? I can't seem to gain access.

Yeah, me too. And I'd like an alternate E.T. cover using the original finger-touching poster.

Any thoughts on doing a custom job on Scooby Doo using the advance poster art found here http://vclips.com/postersfast/images...1416493716.jpg

I would think the spine would have to be re-done as well since the current cover bleeds into the spine and it wouldn't match up with this alternate art.

Anyway, I thought I would at least make the request as I really liked the advance poster a lot better than the cover the studio used.

Roughnecks

Can someone make or know where I can get a DVD cover of "The Pluto Campaign", because the picture on the side doesn't line up with all the other campaigns and it really bothers me. I would make the cover my self but I don't have a scanner.

Is there any place to buy the glossy ink-jet paper online? (Or where do you get it at B&Ms?)

That's a FAQ that might belong at the beginning of these threads with the other info.

This E.T. cover mess has finally gotten me interested in replacing a few of my worst packages, but I've got no idea where to get the paper.

E.T. Alternate Cover

For those requesting an alternate E.T. cover, here is mine. Designed for double Amaray case (single width) The front is original poster art, back is taken from back of 2-disc edition with two minor corrections(additions). 1) Disc 2 label now reads Original Version 2) Disc two is now listed as Dual Layer. BTW: Please be gentle, this is my first posted cover


(edited: image(s) moved to new post)

Nice cover Meat, A little work and it would perfect.
(these are just my opinions, and yes I know I seem picky, But I would like it to match the other Universal Collector's Editions)
1.You could add the "blue light" effect to the E.T. on the spine

2.Add "Widescreen Version" to the bottom of the
front and "Limited Collector's Edition" to the top of the front

3.Add "Widescreen" to the top of the spine

4.Change the back color to Black with White Lettering.

Pretty good Meat.

I think JJE-187's suggestions are right-on. Hope you are able to add some of them to make it even better.

Couple of things:

I'm open to doing it for others, but I really don't care for pasting WIDESCREEN all over the place (mainly because in my collection, it's a given).

The majority (all the ones that I have at least) of Universal Collector's editions use gold bars on the front, which I didn't think would look good on this cover.

I'm working on a black back, however it will have less information than the "real" one does.

Any opinions/suggestions are VERY welcome.
