mmm...mmmmmm....Me like it a lot....

Maybe you could put something like Collector's Edition on the top/or Special Edition WHICHEVER YOU LIKE BETTER....

Boy....I will be watching you.....you better be done with this soon

JJE-187 10-29-02 02:46 AM

Dr. Zaius I think it looks amazing but one little change would make it better to me. Erase the credits at the bottom and put "2-Disc Limited Collector's Edition" with "Widescreen Edition" beneath that in the blank space where the credits were. If you really don't want to do that then I would gladly take the cover as it is.

(Yes I know alot of people don't like plastering "Widescreen" all over there covers but I like Widescreen movies and want everyone one who sees my collection to know the choice I made when a studio released 2 different versions)

E.T cover is good , but why not use the original poster art?

DarthVong 10-29-02 05:53 AM

I like that cover art alot.

joliom 10-29-02 06:46 AM

Dr. Zaius, that looks fantastic! Any chance you could modify the back to make it useful for us 3-disc set people (either by removing any mention of the features altogether or by listing the appropriate 3-disc info)?

Dr. Zaius 10-29-02 07:11 AM

Wow, thanks. To answer some questions...

The poster art I used was made by Drew Struzan and was originally commissioned by Steven Spielberg shortly after the original release of E.T., and it supposedly was a favorite of Spielberg's, but for one reason or another it was not used.

I'll make a new version with the "2-Disc Limited Collector's Edition" & "Widescreen" on the front cover, as well as one using standard poster art.

Jolikai, if you could e-mail me the appropriate 3-disc info, I can generate a version for the 3 disc set.

CanadianKnight 10-29-02 01:48 PM

WOW! That ET cover looks AWESOME Dr. Z! Lookin' forward to seein the finished product(s)!!!! :D


Side note: HAS anyone heard from Matt about dvdcoverart.com? It's been down for a LONG time. I'm still hoping it'll come back. Matt? Any word from potential hosts?

(Crossing my fingers)

DeputyDave 10-29-02 01:53 PM

Dr. Zaius, outstanding cover. That plain blue, split spine bugs me every time I look at my collection. I want a copy too.

Ok, maybe I sound like an idiot, but is there ANY other site similar to DVDCoverart.com? Not just one or two personal creations, but a collection of hundreds of custom and snapper covers? It seems like I just discovered that site when it went down. Now that I've discovered a cheap local source for double disk cases Ireally want to dump some of my less favorite cases.

JJE-187 10-29-02 02:05 PM

If you need any covers from dvdcoverart just e-mail matt and he will give them to you. He also has a few newer releases scanned also.

To e-mail him just click on the blue mdX on the first page under DVDCoverArt

Phyre 10-29-02 02:44 PM

Still searching long and hard for a cover to Andrei Rublev Criterion Collection...

I made a 2 disc SLIM alpha case for both versions of the film... it came out pretty darn nice. I will see if I still have it at home tonight and if so, find a place to post it for you to download.

I'm looking for some feedback on an alternate E.T. cover I'm working on:
Any thoughts/comments would be appreciated.

I like it... I would get rid of the credit at the bottom for sure.

Looks like one I would definetly use to replace the crappy current case... keep up the good work!

Dr. Zaius, you've got mail...

JoeyOhhhh 10-29-02 03:47 PM

Does anyone have plans on making a custom cover for Spider-man? Maybe one with the Green Goblin or a converted scan off of the Limited Edition?

I know its a bit early, but I figure I ask anyways.

joliom 10-29-02 03:48 PM

Angel Pagan, I tried emailing you the covers. It looks like Enter the Dragon may have gone through, but Austin Powers 1 & 2 bounced. Let me know if you would like me to try again.

Rammsteinfan 10-29-02 04:18 PM

To NotEd:

I guess I dont have the Exorcist anymore... I sent it to Matt @ dvdcoverart.com and I guess I got rid of it. I will see if I have it on my backup CD and if I do I will post it to my friends website.

BLee 10-29-02 06:51 PM

I'm looking for:

Muppets take Manhatten

.....anybody know anything?

Thanks

JsonTheGreat 10-29-02 07:02 PM

Hey, sorry I havent posted in a while, I have been working on those Batman covers but Exams hit me so I had to backburner the covers. I also have plans to make "Exorcist Thrillogy" matching covers. I just need to get those Batman covers done first! Also if anyone has suggestions as to what covers I should do next please give them to me. (Keep in mind that if you ask me to make covers for movies that I dont have it will probably be harder.)

Hope to have those covers up soon
Jason

I appreciate that, Rammsteinfan.

BTW, did you create just a cover or is there an insert as well? Just curious. :)

Angel Pagan 10-29-02 07:38 PM

Jolikai, Marc & JoeyOhhh - Thanks for the attempted e-mails. My e-mail size is 10mb and I think I received all the scans that were sent to me. Some e-mails bounced back but someone managed to get through with the Austin Powers scans. :)

Dr. Zaius - that E.T. cover is awesome.

JsonTheGreat - looking forward to your Batman cover.

Darthvong - happy to hear that your site will be up soon. I could use your Beauty and the Beast slim double spine cover scan. :)

Thanks.

Cosmic Bus 10-29-02 07:56 PM

JJE-187, here's a preview of the Kiss of the Dragon cover with the original spine. Look okay? I've got the full version ready to e-mail to you if it's what you're looking for.

Any help with DVD case cover for Patriot Games. Read, linked, searched but no luck to date.

Disc-Flipper 10-29-02 09:38 PM

Matching Hellraiser covers 1-6 would be great...

Rammsteinfan 10-29-02 10:44 PM

I found it! I have the 2 disc slim case cover for the Exorcist... it was backed up on my cd=rw from last month. I have uploaded it at the following location: http://www.geocities.com/steffietsang/exorcist2disc.zip


I had a insert for it but apparently it is gone, I cant find it. I just put the two track lists side by side w/ Regan in the background, it wasnt anything special... if DVDcoverart.com comes back it should be on there.

Cosmic Bus:

Can you email me this cover to me: [email protected]


...did you ever get to finish La Femme Nikita?

habers 10-30-02 07:37 AM

if anyone wojld like the Custom <b>BMW's "The Hire"</b> cover please email me and I will email it to you, Mdx was nice enough to send it to me. Thanks

Snapper Scans with style?
 
I've been hard at work converting all the snappers in my collection (200, or so, of which are snappers) with about 90 completed so far. My practice is to match the spines so they look good in a row, on the shelf. I also always remove the ugly UPC seal and center the cover image for proper display on a keepcase. I try to stay away from stretching the spine image as much as possible. This requires a good deal of hand blending of the spines on some titles (see 'Kronos', 'Cat Women' and 'Spaceship to Venus').

Here's a small sample of the work (play/fun) highlighting the 'Image Entertainment' classic Si-Fi series in my collection.<center><img src=http://home.earthlink.net/~jkelley11/johnf14/8pak6.jpg>

SteveBlair 10-30-02 08:17 AM

I realize that it was just released yesterday, but has anyone scanned the "Sum of All Fears" cover yet?

Angel Pagan 10-30-02 08:26 AM


Does anyone have plans on making a custom cover for Spider-man?
I would also like to see a custom cover for Spider-Man. I prefer the cover art for the fullscreen edition but with the "Widescreen" logo on top.

Cosmic Bus 10-30-02 09:14 AM

pro-bassoonist:

Sure, I'd be happy to send you the cover. Did you want this version or my version with a new spine (sample below)? I wasn't the one working on a Nikita cover, though.

habers 10-30-02 09:49 AM

If someone has a few extra <b>Amaray Single cases</b> (not the AOL ones) and 1 or 2 Double Alphas I would be willing to trade for a few <b>Color Laser Printouts</b> of a few covers of your choice. Email me

I was looking around at work yesterday, just started as the network admin and notice there is a nice Color Laser printer sitting there all lonely...boy have I been putting that to work :)

Cosmic Bus 10-30-02 10:03 AM

BTW, Sebastian, I had no trouble resizing the spine on your Gladiator cover to fit the normal double Amaray case. Looks great!

Sebastian 10-30-02 10:17 AM

That's great Cosmic :D But if you have had trouble, I could have send you the unaltered spine...

Chris Mush 10-30-02 10:53 AM

Anyone have the Dinotopia cover? Either the original or mock up is fine.

THanks in advance

pro-bassoonist 10-30-02 12:06 PM

CosmicBus:

Your version please....looks GREAT!!!

So....I thought you were the one working on Nikita....hmmmm....I will have to check. THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE.

I plan on doing covers for the first three Amityville DVDs in the near future, but I can scan the region 1 cover for you now. Send me an e-mail.

JJE-187 10-30-02 05:41 PM

Need scans of The Scorpion King & Windtalkers if anyone has them

edmcanuck71 10-30-02 05:52 PM

Does anyone have a replacement cover for Close Encounters of the Third Kind? I'm looking for a cover that will fit a double amaray case.

Thanks in advance.
