How big a file can your email handle...about 30MB?  I've got disc art overload for ya.

My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

Thanks Ziz

Do u have a recommendation on what kind of paper to use for the cover and what kind of sticker to use for the disk?

O ya, and I PM you my email.

Thanks again

Whatever you're comfortable with or have handy.  Try to use thinner photo paper for covers since it has to bend around the spine.

hey guys, just my idea for revisited saga, this is just an old design, some of its changed now, also done ESB and ROTJ too. workin on PT next :)

There are more text and stuff on now. In other words the pic arent so empty on the left hand side. Trying to think of a design for the PT is quite hard. I love this design because its big black and powerful and just eye catching.

 Wow. This is really great. Simple. Elegant.

 Did you ever do a Hi-Res of the cover, DuTwan?

In order to contribute to the thread, here's my series once again (links to full-res ANH:R and ESB:R in my sig):

A New Hope:

The Empire Strikes Back:

And even a temporary Return of the Jedi with many things to be changed in a couple years! :

 

I love the classic poster artwork!  If I had the skills, I would love to paint something new, but alas, I do not....

 

Anyone got the link to the hi-res cover of the Jedi sleeve?

For Christmas I have been giving a few friends a three-pack comprised of Revisited, the Rowman Epsiode IV Bonus Material disc, and the Holiday Special. Here's the cover art I created to go with it.

Is there a high resolution version of this anywhere?

Okay... my final ANH:Revisited cover. Now to try tart up that Jedi one a tad!

I adore this cover. The only thing that kills it for me is the font on the spine--is that Star Jedi? A New Hope? The kerning or something seems off.

 

You really should check out David Occhino's Astro SE font. It's not free, but it's definitely worth it.  His comparison page makes that point better than I can.

Yeah I think it was Star Jedi font... if I had the Astro font it would be easy to change, but I've never got into the habit of buying fonts! Might see what I can do though...

Shameless self promotion...

Vincent,

I know what you mean.  Still, I had to do it, because it's just that much better than the other SW fonts.

Can I ask where you got the poster for the front of that? I've never seen it at a larger res than about 900 px on the long side.

Anyway, I put together a little disc art for the purist edition, since the regular edition has plenty of disc art:

Minimalist Star Wars posters

Found some minimalist posters that would probably make nice DVD artwork......can't remember the artists name....

These are truly cool posters, but the highest resolution I could find isn't anything like large enough to work for a dvd cover.  He apparently was selling prints of these but got hit with a Cease and Desist from LFL.  They should license this guy and sell his shit through ACME or Zazzle or something, it's great.

Those might not be too terribly hard to recreate at higher res in Photoshop or Illustrator...

Yeah, it wouldn't be hard to trace over it. I do that sometimes when I need to recreate things, like the logo in my sig.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

I had found them at a decent size......and they can always be cleaned up in photoshop if they do get a little pixely during a resize

 

Can anybody tell me the difference between Revisited and Revisited Purist?

And is anybody out there willing to make me a couple of DVD's of this thing? I'd donate some money for your time and the cost of the discs...

Revisited Purist takes out the prequel music during Obi-Wan and Vader's duel, restores Ben's hut scene to its original cut, restores "There'll be no escape for the Princess this time," and I think restores the original TIE fighter reveal in the battle of Yavin.

Other than that, it's the same as the regular "Revisited."

Damn......some of those I liked, some I didn't.....now I gotta figure out which I prefer......

ABC... that's a great poster, not seen it before. Though does look like a movie in which Boba Fett leads an army of biker scouts against the dastardly Nazis and their russian counterparts... in the Temple of Doom!

Lol, i just have to say that is so true. Fun for collection but wont cover my LD set, maybe if i were to die..

I traced over the third Whalen poster for my cover. It was pretty time-intensive, I thought.  These aren't -as- complicated, but still.

Well I know I'm new here....but I've been working with photoshop for many years.....anybody want me to throw together a minimalist dvd set? with inserts and a slipcase......was thinking of doing it......

KILLBOT.......you had mentioned that you'd give out your retro DVD artwork for ANH Revisited.........I'd love to have it......and if you could send me the fonts as well I'd appreciate it
