@Greencapt & Rikter:
Thanks for the praise!

I didn't expect to fool anybody, but thought that April 1 was the perfect time to show it off. It's been finished for a couple of days.

The main aim of the project was to replicate all the text elements of the Episode II cover. I got all the right fonts and messed around with all the sizes and colours and everything, until I had a bunch of text layers that recreated the text on that Episode II cover (which was as a layer underneath for me to work on).

After that I decided to make a "mock" Episode III cover. I knew it would never look anything close to the real thing. One of the main problems was that I didn't have any hi-res stills, I had tons of stills for Episode III, just none that were high enough resolution. This meant that the front montage and the back still would look pretty crap (they're all images that were upsized 300%). The other problem was the lens flare, I used a ton of them, but couldn't get any that looked close, so I had to leave it out.

Anyway, I'll keep this cover and update it with the true features in November, I'll also snoop around for higher quality pictures. This isn't a cover that I'd be releasing for download - It's just a nice challenge to try and recreate something as accurately as possible.

So, aside from issues relating to the stills, can anyone see any other areas where I could fix things up? Please let me know in this thread. Be brutal, I don't mind. Ironically, this is the closest I've ever come to showing you guys my custom covers. I guess that's because all my other ones are incomplete. :b

Ah no! My download limit for the month is almost up (11-ish GB on a 12GB limit), and so I will have to wait until the 11th (our contract month starts on the 11th) before I can download it.

How am I supposed to get EditDroid ROTJ, Han's CW Volume 2 & the Covers Torrent, all in the one month... hrm... Rikter I think I may take you up on that offer we talked about in an email, I'll dig up the replies and send you some stuff.

It'd be pricey for me (even though it was Rikter who said they were pricey).

I live in Australia, so I have the currency conversion, the costly shipping, fees for internation money order. However, most places don't accept international money order and thus I'd have no way to buy them. I am 17 (until May), and so don't have a credit card. Also the reason for which I don't own the many soundtracks I want that can only be purchased/found in the UK/US.

Atodorovic,
I'm confused. :S

Who created that set, and are they available for download anywhere? Secondly what do the other 2 boxsets contain? It even looks as though, there's 4 boxsets, with 3 or 4 DVDs fitting into each... Wait... how do you print a boxset when it's a DVD cover size. :/

Rikter,
Will that set be going into the cover torrent?

Sessler,

I've downloaded all of the HQ posters you've made available thus far, have you got any others lying around?
Seeing as how I don't have enough money to buy all of the posters, I'd like to have HQ versions of them all on my computer at least.

Oh, BTW, while we're on the topic of posters: has anyone seen the Code3 3D posters? I thought they looked pretty cool. And just a few days after seeing them I found out about Lucas' 3D/2007 re-release plan. Those posters would be great supersized in my cinema proclaiming the re-release in 2007.

Thanks in advance,
klokwerk

Sounds mighty cool! But, once again, wasn't somebody in contact with the set's original creator? Can't you get them from him/her/them?

Also; can someone direct me to where I might learn how to edit the vobs/ifos/whatevers so that I can make my EditDroid ESB show the menu before playing the movie. I think a thread exists somewhere (though it might've been another board...).

To Sessler:
Thanks Sessler! Are these from Mad at all? Because if they are I won't bother getting the versions that are uploaded there. \

To Ricarleite:
Is the version of the "Jedi" poster that Sessler posted up, the same as yours? Or does yours have higher quality?

To Everybody:
Does anyone know of a webpage that details (names/releases) of ALL the posters for Star Wars? As there have been many over the years. I need an information resource.
