STAR WARS: The Torrents thread
Time
Well - Everyone asked about my custom covers...

Some of the covers in this collection are covers I made myself for you all to
enjoy and use. The rest of these covers are the hard work of others as well -

Covers from Cerbero and The Dean of Don Mills and MANY others - As well as all
the Prillaman website covers!!

PLEASE KEEP THESE COVERS OFF EBAY!!

This torrent was made to share these covers with fans NOT BOOTLEGERS and ASSHOLE
RIP-OFF ARTISTS

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Install Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PRINT SIZE - width 10.8 X height 7.293 @300 dpi.
AND Yes when printed on a bad-a$$ laser printer (like the Fiery XJ) the DVD
cover look G-R-E-A-T! VERY real and VERY Professional!

Here is the specs on the cover sizes

All keepcases use the same size cover for the front and back 'the face' (1535 x
2188 pixels), the only thing that changes is the spine width.

COVER SIZES + SPINE SIZE

single: 3240 x 2188 pixels (spine: 170 pixels)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Release Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm asking for your Promise to seed these covers as you can and then
give or trade copies to EVERY fan you know! This will help prevent the Darkside
Dealers (eBay/comic shop sellers) from selling copies for $50!

PLEASE - DO NOT sell these for profit.

I do not want anyone to feel that I'm attempting to exploit these wonderful
renditions of Star Wars Universe. I just want to share these with other fans and at the same time keep the Star Wars Fan Created Universe Alive and free of hooligans!

So the breakdown -

In this torrent you'll find

1 - Printable HQ DVD cover and disc art by BLAKSVN!!
2 - A super AWESOME Star Wars TRIBUTE CD also with Custom ARTWORK also by BLAKSVN! (SUPER SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION)

THANKS for your interest and.....

MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!!

Rikter

Rikter_Blaksvn@Yahoo.com

Special thanks to those that made this shared Torrent possible!

PLEASE KEEP THIS TORRENT OPEN!!!!!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Printing Notes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- For best results print with a Fiery XJ or a LaserJet Printer

- Spark it if you have it

- Another Fine Ass Blaksvn Product

- Word to the Spookies...

Depending on what the dvd release is like, and how messed up he makes it, I am still keen to do a despecialised edition
But it will be after I finish these.

(no disrespect to the exisiting bootlegs, their problems are mostly due the low bitrate ncessary to fit it all on one layer, but they aren't a patch on the laserdisc originals.)


I'm so giddy sitting here waiting for your versions

I'll be doing covers for them as well!

I was originally after a cheap all-in-one scanner, printer, copier - tho that direct dvd printer has now given me more food for thought... I wonder if there's an all-in-one with direct printing...

damn my love of Star Wars and loathing of parting with cash!

TR47 has a very good point.........

I also agree Labels are a bad idea they can gey stuck in players and they can also make the DVD's VERY hard to copy as the actually unbalance the discs - I had a few discs actually make EXTRA whizzing noises in my DVD player before.

- Get a disc printer For less then $100

The Special Editions are dead and anyone who really thinks that they will actually see the light of day...

Sorry - Just like the original Trilogy - Gone are they...

Otherwise they would have been released by now - BUT as we all know GL has been spending the last few YEARS re-editing and remastering these new DVD versions inbetween filming Episode III

I would say they're gone forever also


(I could be wrong as I know that I could almost be duped into buying them if he did release em' )

To those wondering about my set, it is progressing - slowly.

I have a perfect uncompressed RGB capture of ANH, and it looks better than it looks on my pioneer elite laserdisc. So far so good.
I am now going through the process of checking, colour grading and then encoding it.

The encode is tricky and I will be doing quite a bit of manual work on it, so probably another month or 2. I want it to be indistinguishable from the LD version.
Then I will move onto esb and rotj.
So it will be a little while, but I am hopeful that it will be a true archive of the films for posterity.


THANKS FOR THE UPDATE!!

Rikter, if you want to keep this torrent fairly simple (the film and some covers) I would be happy to help seed it with you. It would get out a lot faster with two seeders.


I'd dig that but - I already have the set ready for torrent

I REALLY do dig the support though and please believe me I do love the help - But it's ready to go already

I just wann seed the TR47 Episode IV a bit longer...........

I can send you the ROTJ one with the old title text if you want, however, and Leia's all there in that one.



I'd love to add your covers to my collection CD!

Can we arrange this? I of course will send you ALL the covers I have in return + I'd love to get that art!
