I've been on that IRE torrent since last night, and utorrent says there are no seeds and even though I'm getting it from peers, not enough has been distributed for us to get the whole DVD. Is everybody else getting this too or do you see seeds?

I for one am definitely seeding, so I don't think that's the problem... have you sorted out your router/port forwarding etc.?

I thought it was a problem on my end. Thanks, I've been hesitant to change any of my router settings for fear of messing it up. I'll see if maybe the peers on my end get any more pieces of the pie.

PortForward.com should be able to help you out with configuring your router for your Bittorrent client - as long as you make a note of the current settings, you can't do any irreversible damage!

Is that cover going to have a picture on front, or do I need to stock up on black ink?

It's still a work in progress... I may completely change it and use a wrap around still from the movie...

any suggestions?

I like the black. Maybe a good thick black border on the front with a dark screen grab.

Any idea what font the main title is in? I assume it's custom.

The only hi-res image I could find is here:

Still, I think that one shot of the bridge being destroyed is perfect for a wrap-around, if any can find it at decent resolution.

I can't remember where I downloaded it from, it's called Koyaanisqatsi. Must be a custom.

Thanks for the ideas guys! keep em coming and any hi res caps would be welcome! :-)

Going in a slightly different direction, I always liked the CD cover:

Could do a hi-res scan if you think you could use it (the actual cover doesn't have the text banner).

Hey Cassius, can you send me the Koyaanisqatsi font? I found one, but it's not very good.

Those both look great, I can't wait to see how the CD cover looks on the wrap-around. What software do you use to make the covers and get a preview like that?

Thank you! It's the first cover I have made!

neither can I! Hopefully Jonno will come up with the Hi res soon so I can dabble..

ok..

I am just learning to use Adobe Photoshop CS2 It's something I should have done Years ago. It's not easy to use by any means and the learning curve is quite steep.. the results are amazing though... (that's not bigging up my work, I just mean that you can get amazing things from it... oh.. I'll shut up on this one...

To make the DVD cover mock up images..

IMANDIX

This program is FREE and ace! I love it to bits and it's the one prog that's asked for LOADS on these boards....

No problem!

Both of your interpretations look great - how well does the scan stand up to being stretched over the whole cover?

They look good Cassius76. I hope you can upload the hi-res CD scan for those of us who want to have a go at making our own covers?
