***The Official ANGRYSVN STAR WARS*** Release Thread
Time
Now that looks very nice indeed.

- THANKS!, I've worked on and off on this one for about 2 months (3 captures and MANY encodings)

As you know from previous discussions, I am not usually into the whole cover thing but that one does stand out above many that I have seen here in recent times.

- Really??, thanks for the very kind words! I really wanted to recreate the cover to match the LD cover but not to replicate the cover as I feel that most LD backs are WAY TOO busy.

If you could send me your menu shots without the watermark, I will add to the GTF pages if you wish.


- Once they are done

Out of pure curiosity, if this is your third OT transfer, what are the other two and what has made you decide not to release them???


- My 1st transfer was pretty much just for me, I did it back in 1999 and the result was a 6 disc set with the film spread over 2 discs (with menus by ulead), the second was about 2 1/2 years ago now and that one was a DL version that my brother and I both worked on, and at the time we finished it up; about 3 other transfers had just came out (Isomix, Farsight and the Editdroid set - okay well about the same time)

It might be easier to score a Yellowbeard DVDr on eBay - yes they are transfers but some include a second disc that has the making of on it.

A SPARK OF HOPE FROM OT.COM WE HAVE A NEW CAUSE !!!
Time
A POST FROM MOMMA BLAKSVN


I’ve really wanted to post about your amazing gift to our family, but I’ve had a hard time deciding what to say. Surely, many of us have moments of definition in our lives, where we are able to say, “before this happened, I was one way; but, afterwards, I was different.” The largest moment like that in my life was when the doctor stopped on my way into the NICU in Las Vegas and said, “There’s something wrong with your baby.” Since that time, we have bumbled our way through anger, relief, remorse, curiosity, grief, bewilderment, joy, helplessness, despair and hope—all many times. First I tried to juggle a full-time job, caring for Maddy as best I could while she was in the hospital, and saving energy for Richard and Corbin when I got back from all that. Then she came home and there were a minimum of two doctor’s visits along with numerous home visits from therapists and nurses every week for months. On top of (between Richard and I) keeping watch over her 24 hours a day because she was being tube fed and would often reflux and aspirate (inhale) her own vomit. It was the strangest juxtaposition of emotions because there was the unbelievably ecstatic joy of having a newborn, but it was coupled with a great deal of worry and fear. We couldn’t even take her anywhere for the first eighteen months of her life because her health was so fragile. But we just kept holding onto hope for her. We kept holding on to the idea that, once we had gotten through all of these corrective surgeries that she required, she would be a healthy, normal child. Of course, what I didn’t realize then was that she will never be a “healthy, normal child.” Our daughter has a genetic disorder and she will never get “better.” However, her everyday health is remarkable—she gets the sniffles now and then, but she certainly doesn’t seem to be more prone to illness than anyone else. She is also a bright, happy little girl. But she’s not typical, and probably never will be. She doesn’t speak very well, which seems to be related to hearing loss; but her hearing screening only revealed fluid in her ears. She does communicate, though, and usually is quite good at getting her message across. I don’t know if any of you have read the article I wrote for c22c; but in it I mention that in some ways I feel chosen to have had this child, because I have had a lot of experience caring for disabled adults. It has been a help, even just that I understand a lot of the medical terms and situations we have been exposed to. Overall, this amazing child has been one of the most wonderful things to happen to RiK and I, along with our son. But, it has been a mixed blessing with a lot of forced growing pains involved.

That’s our story, so far. The support of our friends and families has played a large part in carrying us through (especially the first years,) and I have been occasionally overwhelmed by the amount of caring and generosity that people—many of them total strangers—have given us. However, no one has ever done anything like what you all have done for us. I am humbled by your gift. This is the sort of thing that renews faith in humanity—the kind of thing that makes me hope that the Threefold Law circles back around to each and every one of you and brings you all blessings of the magnitude as the one we have experienced this holiday. Thank you is not nearly enough, but it’s all I have.

Thank you.
Rayna Cordova
Mrs. RiK and mommy to Maddy and Corbin.

Time
TO ALL:

Well, it's taken us (Rayna and I) more then a few hours to get all that has happened here pulled together; this is the most amazing thing that has happened since the Ronald McDonald house in Las Vegas, to see the whole community come together like this has been stunning and I'm really at a loss for words still BUT I'm truly stunned here gang, you really have helped out so much and so unexpectedly here.

I'm not sure if I can convey just how grateful we are that Santa came a little early...

Maddi, Corbi, Rayna and I wish you all the most very wonderful and happy Christmas or Hanukkah or Kwanzaa ever!

Bless you all…

See... Santa IS REAL and you all helped prove that to the Spookies!!!

NON-Star Wars Fan Edit and Alternate DVD Covers SHOWCASE
Time

Hi everyone, this is my first post on the forum.

After seeing all the effort that has been put into fan edits over the last year, and having downloaded a fair few films and DVD covers, (most of which is a result of the people frequenting this forum), I decided to chip in myself.

I wanted to put together a cover for the SUPERMAN: INTERNATIONAL SALKIND CUT, (currently being upped by Blaksvn), that would go with the cover of the SUPERMAN II RIC.

The end result is a combination of three DVD covers. The RIC cover, Dr. Zaius' Superman The Movie Cover, and Coovs' Superman Cover.

Thanx to Dr Zaius for the high res poster image, and to Coov for the Krypton image and spine. Hope you don't mind me using your cover Coov, but I really liked the back, and the spine saved me some time! (Your Batman Begins cover is excellent by the way)

Ive also done a pair of matching discs to keep in with the artwork of the RIC.

If anyone wants a high res copy, or is able to tell me how to make a link to it, then just pm or email me.
