Thanks. I accually thinned out my collection not too long ago. I had the Definitive & Faces LaserDiscs (which I sold on eBay along with my LD player) I had the OCP Classic Editions, but I gave 'em away cause I didn't really like them. I also had some bootlegged VHS, but no real point keeping them anymore.

Yeah right now I just have the VHS of the OT, the PT dvds and the RIW unaltered set. I'm debating between finally buying one of the SE sets (any difference in the 4-disc gold/silver set and the 3-disc one with the old ANH art?), and replace the cases with 2-disc cases- one for the SE and the other for RIW. Or just buy the new dvds that came out in Sept (I think we have all 3 used at my store), and replace something from there. I had really liked to get a 3-disc box and print up one the covers I found for it. Oh the choices, lol.

Lucky. I couldn't find one tin at my local Best Buy this evening!

And reason for this was to see what versions of the PT and OT peoples here have, including the fan preservations, etc.

What paper you recommend? Using glossy photo paper is good from what I read somewhere, but finding it in 8 1/2 by 14 is a pain in the butt.

MediaPlayerClassic (with Matroska-splitter installed, so usually TS-files work) shows that there's a video-track present, but it's unchecked, and can't be selected. Help!

ANH and ROTJ look fantastic though. Yet, some Endor scenes in ROTJ look like they're upscaled... at least they seem quite blurry. And now I'm pretty sure that the German crawls are upscaled from the German 1997 SEs.

Got pics?

I still have that cover & one more for kill bill. The other cover has the girl from the disc on the spine. I'll put them up later in the week for you.
Here is a Star Wars: Clone War (Episode II.V) ADM edit cover i was working on. Just have to add the spec on the back & call it a day. I should just do one cover at a time.

I hope you finish that soon, that's a kickass cover design I would use! What's with the stuff on the spine under the logo anyhow?

Ok, went to Staples and got a pack of dvd cover paper (by memorex) that came with some program called ezPressit. The paper's still and has perforations to tear off and inserting for dvd covers. Now even with setting the program, and my printer settings (A4 since somehow it won't switch to paper size), nothing's print right. The covers are either bleeding off to one of the sides, or too wide. I'm really not sure if I'm aligning it right in the program itself, or if I'm putting the paper in wrong. I've already wasted 6 sheets from a pack of 25 and getting really annoyed with having spent $12 on this crap.

Has anyone used the kind of paper I mentioned and have any suggestions, or know of a better program, other then this crappy one or Nero's cover maker?

Would anyone be able to make a Banned Bond cover for a 3-disc holder? I got these for my stepfather and he loves them, and would get a 3-dvd holder for them (look nicer on his shelves) if these was one aviliable.

Lucasfilm:

Thank you for releasing the original Star Wars trilogy on DVD. I'll not be needing these discs as I have no interest in the revised films.

I hope a full restored, anamorphic release of the original films will be considered. I would certainly be among the first in line to purchase that release. If not, this will probably be my first and last purchase of Star Wars DVDs.

Thank you again,

LOL. Let us know if you get any sort of response.

But hey, at least the scene in VI when Han gropes Leia after she gets shot is still there, so it's not all bad. Way to get her when she's down, Han, way to go.

Well considering they took out "Han shoots first" they needed to show Han was still rough around the edges.

nero suppoprts Dual Layer now. Just Burn the disc as normal using the "nero burning Rom "feature......

Since when? Also even if Nero supports DL burning I'd still need a DL burner correct? I'm wondering if there's a way to split it to fit on a SL disc, and still retain the quality. I'm not too savvy on how to do alot of this or sure what to do.

If I knew how to do that, I would do the same.
