Good. Can we start talking about despeciallzed again?

Oh, hello. Please allow me to interrupt this fine conversation... :)

As you can see, I'm new here. And I'm veeery excited about Harmy's work. "Thank you" simply doesn't express how I feel nearly enough, but...

Thank you, Harmy! Just... wow! Tremendous work!

Now, what I'd like to share are my DVD cover designs. As soon as I got Harmy's files a few days ago, I went straight to work on these designs and I literally just finished these first drafts.

The covers that Harmy shared in the front post are really freaking cool, but I decided I want a traditional look. So I've put together the following designs. For the front, I started with the original US movie posters. For the back, I used the verbatim copy from the backside of my 1992 VHS copies (description and credits), plus a choice frame from the film.

@Harmy, please notice at the bottom that I duplicated the "HARMY FILM" logo from your artwork. I did the best I could to match the font type and feel it's a rather good duplication, but I would very grateful if you would share your original art asset with me.

Again, these are hot off the press and I haven't even printed a proof yet. So there is definitely going to be some adjustments made before I share the full resolution files for other lovers of Star Wars to enjoy. I simply couldn't resist sharing these early versions and I'm willing to hear suggestions and recommendations for the shared format.

I might also create artwork for printing on the disc. Currently thinking a crop of the poster artwork. No plans for Blu-ray versions because I don't have a BD burner.

So, I'll leave these here for now. More to come later! (Could be a couple weeks due to work distractions.)

Nice!

However, should "swordn" in the last image be "sworn"? :)

Great looking artwork, captskezo!

Those covers are very nice indeed.

The only thing that needs revising is the runtimes.  My audio editor tells me the soundtrack length of the first film is 121 minutes, not 124, which must be the SE length.  The others should be looked at also for this . . .

Thanks, all!

Haha, yeah, there are still typos in the copy. I saw another one, too.

Good comment about the runtimes. I simply copied what is on my VHS boxes, but I'll verify these against the actual Harmy editions (I assumed they would match these original releases).

I've also decided to revise the fonts and will consider adding the video/audio track info.

Since were talking art, I thought I'd re-post the cover/disc/box work mentioned by Matt a couple of pages ago. I don't think he ever actually posted them, just mentioned it.

Nothing to see here, move along.

Holy Schneike! Is that box for real? I would LOVE to have that!

It’s really sad when the “creative minds” behind something we hold dear are also guilty of its destruction.

Where are the files to be found?

Tried Spleen.org and a few other untrusted torrents, but I've had no luck finding a site where I can download Harmy's amazing work. And I'm a bit tired of watching the original versions on laserdisc. :)

Any insight / info would be appreciated. Thanks!

 I'm going to go ahead and doubt that you tried Spleen.org because.....I typed in 'harmy' in the top search bar and saw 22 live seeds of his DEs.

Try again, please. :)

Thanks for the info. When I search Harmy, I just see a lot of requests, so I may be in the wrong place.

I also searched Harmy under board index, but didn't see any paths to live seeds.

I just requested an invite yesterday, so it might be that I have not received the official invitation and need that to see what you're seeing.

Much appreciated. Cheers.

 The forum part of the site and the torrent part are actually separate. Not immediately obvious how that works until you're on both.

So the invite I requested, that's to the torrent part? That's probably why I'm only seeing requests and no seeds. Thanks for the info.

I finally got the latest versions of all three films on DVD. I love them, great Job Harmy!

I have a question, is there any chance you could do a DVD cover for the single case Despecialized Trilogy?

Hey, Harmy's Despecialized got a lovely endorsement on the Incomparable podcast. On their latest episode (238: Caucus with the Dark Side) they talk about it being their go-to version of the original trilogy at 1:31:00.
