I like that it still has the "only factory sealed packages" have the 20th Century Fox logo... I wouldn't think you'd want to put all of the copyright stuff on this quasi copyright questionable item...

Adywan, that is beautiful.

I think we all need to work out how to make a cardboard boxset of our own because there's no point stuffing our old SW boxsets any more, not with that fantastic case.

I'm going to get a pack of DVD9's now specially for this new DVD.

Very nice cover, Adywan. I hope both PAL and NTSC version of DVD 9 will soon be on Fanedit.org available to download trough rapidshare. This is THE biggest event in a history of STARWARS; i am telling about it everyone I know who likes SW.
wise you must be.

Re Ghostcut's comment: I've actually been working on ideas for a set of covers for the entire Revisited saga once it's all done, complete with a containing box. I feel the design works splendidly for a box set, but less well for separate cases, because it's very minimalist and in particular the design for ANH is almost entirely black and white. So you probably won't see it, unless anyone actually asks, until at least ROTJ is Revisited, if at all.

No pressure, Adywan. ;)

Re Darth Wagner: I think the release of the original film is a slightly bigger event. :p

Wow, the cover has turned out ace Adywan! Fantastic work once again. Kudos.

Perhaps we should have a post here during the calm before the storm explaining how to get them (how newsgroups, torrents, and rapidshare work).

Since I don't fully understand it and will probably wait for the torrent, I would not be the best choice to write it.

Cannot wait. I have my news rover waiting for the upload. Let me be one of the first to say congratulations on officially finishing this project. Although I fully expect an A New Hope Revisited: Special Edition in about 10 years with far more CGI and storyline changes..lol

i give up. Someone or something is out to get me. Just started uploading the PAL but it was crawling and i mean crawling. opened up my emails and there was one waiting for me from my isp:

"please be aware that from 17:00 on the 12th may 2008 your line may be restricted to 16kbps upstream and 512kbps downstream due to urgent maintenance at the exchange in your area. The work should take no longer than 48 hours but your speed will likely not improve until your profile is reset, normally within 10 working days"

thats just taking the piss. there is no possible way i can upload this now with those speeds and i'm still having to pay the full months money to my isp. So i guess i'm just going to have to wait until i get a decent enough speed to be able to get this out

not happy :(

16kps up? That's ridiculous. Couldn't one of the PIFed people upload it for you? I guess not, or they wouldn't need it PIFed, would they? ;-)

Don't worry about it, we'll just talk about the awesome painting until you get your speeds up.

And it also gives us more time to write up some kind of tutorial to keep the "How duz I git this?!" messages to a minimum.

I suspect Lucasfilm is to blame... George secretly controls the entire planet.

Awesome cover by the way, Adywan. It turned out beautifully; you may have converted a "cover purist" here (I typically like using only the theatrical posters for Star Wars DVDs).

Also, can't wait to get the DVD-9 (hopefully some good soul will make it available via torrent).

Here is a guide on how to get Revisited for yourself:

Newsgroups: alt.binary.starwars (a.b.starwars) is a newsgroup.

wikipedia said:

Newsgroup servers are hosted by various organizations and institutions. Most Internet Service Providers host their own News Server, or rent access to one, for their subscribers. There are also a number of companies who sell access to premium news servers.

While Newsgroups were not created with the intention of distributing binary files, they have proven to be quite effective for this. Due to the way they work, a file uploaded once will be spread and can then be downloaded by an unlimited number of users. More useful is the fact that every user is drawing on the bandwidth of their own news server. This means that unlike P2P technology, the user's download speed is under their own control, as opposed to under the willingness of other people to share files. In fact this is another benefit of Newsgroups: it is usually not expected that users share. If every user makes uploads then the servers would be flooded; thus it is acceptable and often encouraged for users to just leech.


Each version of Revisited is available via alt.binary.starwars and is split into many files that need to be put back together using WinRAR.

Rapidshare: Rapidshare is a free hosting website, which due to file size limitations will also have the ISO file split up into several pieces that need to be put back together using WinRAR.

Torrents: Torrents are files that contain metadata and tracking information so that using a Torrent program like uTorrent one would be able to download the entire ISO file in one piece, but from multiple places (peer-to-peer, or P2P)


ISO files can then be burned directly to a DVD using any CD/DVD burning program by "burning a disc image" not just by burning the file to a disc. Take note that the new version requires a DUAL LAYER DVD, so make sure you get a "dual layer" or "double layer" or "DL" DVD (+R or -R). Verbatim is the brand of choice. Burn at the slowest speed your DVD DL burner can go and have it verify the file to minimize errors.

(PM me for suggestions/revisions NOT questions, because I don't know how any of this works, I just looked them up)

Unless I'm mistaken (which is why I need help with my post), you have to contact your service provider to subscribe to newsgroups. Basically, it costs money, which is why I know nothing about it and will wait for the Rapidshare or Torrent.
