Intriguing info, Bossk m8.

Could it actually happen? Eps 7-9? I suppose the OT actors are old enough to carry on the story 30 years on...

or could it be a smokescreen for another different venture - ie the rumoured tv series?

Hi & welcome wainsco

Sorry m8 - I didn't know there was a later version with the restored missing footage.

Try contacting Laserman or Rikter for the serial numbers - I think they may have the laserdiscs.

If you're in the UK the larger Klick or Prontaprint shops may have the machinery needed - if not they'll probably know where (and who) does...

Start up Word so it's on a new blank page.

click on File, and then Page Setup, click Paper Size and tick the Landscape box, press OK.

now click on File, then Page Setup, and click on Margins. adjust the margins to 3mm on all sides - this will fit even the 4-disc dvd covers.

click on Insert (top row of commands), and then Picture - scroll onto and click 'From File' - search for the pic you wish to print (or save in word format). Once you've found it click Insert, wait a few seconds for it to copy itself over and then click on File, and then Save As... or Print Preview or whatever you are gonna do to it.

bumping an old thread! lol

I have this vision of the mods / tptb over on the os bbs as being the emotionless people from the film Equillibrium...

You're right about the new look of their bbs - very strange and unappealing.

What thread were you last debating in? I'll give it a go and carry the good fight (if I can)

^ I thought they looked somewhat familiar.

I'd like to think that the bloke selling them would give a share of the gains to Cerbero - though I may be being incredibly naive to think such a thing...

Commander Courage - Hi and welcome.

I see that some of your observations make sense - tho there will be further edits to come, GL just can't resist tinkering...

IMHO GL has a finalised list of errors and stuff to fix - tho he'll be ticking off fixes to that list over a number of different edits and versions over the coming years.

DanB found this recently sold set on the UK ebay - £110 (around US$200?):-

Expensive OT DVD Set

I can understand people covering themselves with the cost of the discs, dvd cases costs, printing and photopaper costs, ebay costs, and postage & packing - but the above is WAY excessive!

mageguru - nice work m8

robinhood - hope to see the black text on white TDC covers around, there is something special about that style of cover, and it's always good to have an alternate or inksaver version of as many covers as poss.

Good luck

Thanks.

That is one cool 'inksaver' dvd cover set - only drawback for me is that the colouring of some of the lettering is brown (not black) which I'm not a big fan of - I've been trying to experiment with changing the colours but have had no joy so far...

Cool covers, mageguru - I kind of like the roman numerals with the more original poster art.

Though I always get a little worried when I see the numbers '1997' on the back of a cover (ANH)...

Cheers for the info TR47 - there'a few of the Epsons and the small weird looking thermal dvd printers on ebay.co.uk at the mo and I'm thinking it over.

Nice signature - from a mostly damn fine film

I've noticed that a lot of the direct cd/dvd printers state that they are to be used with printqable cd/dvd discs - am I right in thinking these are the discs with a white surface on 1 side?

or can they print on the gold coloured surface anway?

^ the gold box for both widescreen and fullscreen?

it's a nice looking box set - think it may be based on the Jedi Outcast games for the front cover.

Send Rikter a PM (make sure you alter your settings in 'Profile' so that you can receice PM's back) and ask for a quote m8.

Obi_Skywalker - the cost prob depends on where you live (postage & packing etc), Rikter has a mean collection of stuff and is VERY competitive on price.

GL seems to have always given the 'technology line' as a reason for the changes - though I don't ever recall hearing of anyone pressing him on the dialogue changes in interviews etc... a shame.

Good stuff Laserman.

I eagerly await your work.

I'm sure you've been asked this many times before, but are you using the 1993 Definitive Collection laserdiscs, and if so will you be editing in the missing C3P0 'tractor beam' line?
