Again I really love cover that you’ve done and it would be great for the Criterion transfer...but to be very honest; I'm not sure that simply since the Hiphats DVD has includes SOME of the features that it would qualify it for the most honorable title of Criterion. And I think that most DVD collectors would find it very misleading, since your cover has the Criterion name on it - one would assume that it is indeed a Criterion Laserdisc transfer and also expect that to be on the DVD, not a Fan Edit.

Have you consider keeping the layout but calling it THE HIPHATS COLLECTION instead?? As that would honor Hips far greater then mislabeling it a Criterion disc. Then you could work on a whole collection of similar covers for his DVD’s.

The Criterion label, brand and definition is simply not something to just throw about lightly
