@catofong: That's not bad at all. I'd just suggest to move the gold "Widescreen" bar up to the top of the picture and flush against the sides of the front cover. That is, if you're going for an "official" look to the front cover. And, if you're doing that, you may want to make the THX stuff at the bottom of the front cover gold too. There are plenty of covers on Grisan's site which you could use as a template for that. Of course, if you're not looking at giving it an "official" look, disregard what I just said.

I don't like that Hayden is in ROTJ either. That being said, I think that if GL was going to put Hayden in ROTJ, he should have also replaced Puppet Yoda with Digital Yoda and Sir Alec Guinness with Ewan McGregor. (I know, that almost sounds blasphemous, but at least it's consistent.)

I like Digital Yoda better, too, for Ep1 anyway. Leave Frank Oz's performance in the OT.

@YourFriendKaysar: I'd be willing to help out temporarily until you find a better place to host them. I've got a total of 70mb in 10 mb chunks from my ISP (some of it's currently being used) and I'm not sure what the bandwidth restriction is, but it should help.

If your school is a college, most times they give every student some web space. Regarding how much web space, I'm sure it depends on the college. When I was in college from 98 to 02, I got 10 mb, but back then, 10 mb wasn't so bad.

Later.

Printing out DVD Labels

I've got an Epson Stylus Photo R320. It works well, but about 50% of the time when I try to print out a high-res picture (like a DVD cover), it memory dumps. Also, the CD printing software won't print all the way to the center of the disc. The smallest inner diameter is 20 mm. This is a problem if you're using labels. If you're using printable discs like MoveAlong, it shouldn't be a problem because you can't print all the way to the center.

And, yes, injet printers look much better on glossy paper than regular printer paper. It does on my R320 anyway.

(For DVD covers, I use my color laser printer at work on regular paper. It looks just fine.)

I downloaded both Episodes 4 & 5 of Dark Jedi's Definitive Edition transfers, and they look great. Most impressive. Also, very little parring needed. However, Episode 6 didn't come down so well. Only 14 of the rars came down without damage and all the par files were damaged too. So, I'm about 337 blocks short.

I'm using my ISP's news server, so maybe that could be my problem.

dark jedi: I know someone is going to post your SE versions on MySpleen, any plans for having these posted?

Yeah, I guess if I could see a DeLorean everyday, it'd probably lose it's luster. The time machine in "The Time Machine" was pretty interesting though.

The only thing I have against the holodeck choice is that it is essentially a big video game. Nothing against video games, of course, but I'd rather have one of the choices on that list that involves interacting in real life. In other words, it's one thing to see what live was/could be like, but it's an entirely different thing to actually be living in what life was/could be like.

My 2 cents.

@PSYCHO_DAYV: It only gave Doc Brown and Marty problems because they were clumsy. In the end, all their time travel improved their lives.

My vote: A time machine. I'd go back and buy a ton of Microsoft, Intel, & IBM stock. Then I'd have enough money to put into holodeck & spaceship research. You know, all for advancing the human race.

Besides, you can't buy Deloreans anymore...

@ Bizzle: Those are definitely simple, nice, and clean. Very bold. I like them.

General question to everybody: In your DVD rack/shelf/whatever, do you prefer to leave the 2004 DVDs in the box or do you store the box away somewhere? And, in what order do you store all your SW DVDs in?

Here's the order I store mine (from left to right):
Episode 1 (Official)
Episode 2 (Official)
Clone Wars Volume 1 (Official)
Clone Wars Volume 2 (will go here once I can by the official DVD)
Episode 3 (will go here once I can by the official DVD)
Episode 4 (Official in box)
Episode 5 (Official in box)
Episode 6 (Official in box)
Original Trilogy Bonus Material (Official in box)
A Musical Journey (Official disc, but custom case)
Episode 3 (Not Official)
Episode 4 (Cowclops v2)
Episode 5 (Cowclops v2)
Episode 6 (Cowclops v2)
Episode 4 SE (dark_jedi & boba feta, once it gets released)
Episode 5 SE (dark_jedi & boba feta, once it gets released)
Episode 6 SE (dark_jedi & boba feta, once it gets released)
Episode 4 SE (my brother found this in Cambodia a couple years ago)
Episode 6 (my brother found this in Cambodia a couple years ago)

I'm thinking of moving the clone wars discs to after A Musical Journey just to have all the movies together, but that would break the timeline. Who knows what will have to happen when the two TV series come out on DVD.

Decisions, decisions...
