Custom Cover & Disc Art for AVCHD Trilogy Set
Time

^ nicely re-done - I know what you mean re the block logos on the front and the ROTJ linear logo for the back cover - but think it goes really well; a nice compromise - yet both still visually fitting 😃

Ā 

Edit - this may be of use/ideas for your back cover - for the ROTJ logo to ā€˜match’ a bit more…

by the very talented Stealthboy for a DeSpecialised set he working on…

Ā 

Here’s to a good season for the mighty Reds 😃

Terrible DVD/Blu-ray Cover Art

While this one for ā€˜Brassed Off’ isn’t as bad as some design-wise, the total misrepresentation of the film as some kind of a Jennifer-Aniston-style light romcom is bizarre…

Imagine of somebody bought it thinking it was… then they get to the clown swearing at the children, the suicide scene and an old man coughing up blood.

and Pete Postlethwaite doing this mate… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDcoJN9fnVI

bloody hell that is one bad and totally misleading cover.

This is supposedly the President of the United States.

I thought it was a spoof account when I watched that mate.

ā€˜Trump wrestling body-slam tweet ā€˜encourages violence against reporters’, CNN says’…

(CNN statement says president ā€˜involved in juvenile behavior far below the dignity of his office’ while Ben Sasse says he is ā€˜trying to weaponise distrust’)

Ā 

^ Trump is very much the lowering the bar - and it has occurred so many times it is seemingly becoming ā€˜accepted’ or almost ā€˜normal’ for this type of behaviour from him.

Sounds like they’re doing something that will piss off their paying customers. I’ve always found them a hassle to use, and they have popups that get around my blockers too. There are better image hosting sites out there, but a pain in the ass to move if you have tons of stuff.

Aye, I think the ā€˜DVD Covers, Disc Labels, and Other Fan Artwork’ section of the ot.com will take a big hit from photobucket being very very annoying on this - lots of ā€˜3rd party linking’ in there.

It took me most of an evening to re-link most of my covers (thankfully I don’t have that many) - and links to others - and there’s still a fair few I’ve likely missed.

And the amount of adverts now popping up intrusively is very annoying too. Can’t see them surviving or doing well from this new ā€˜business model’ for very long…

Hopefully imgur will be ok/decent for picture hosting for a long long time to come… šŸ˜‰

Star Wars Despecialized Editions - Custom Bluray Set (Released)

Here are some covers to smooth things over

vexedmedia said:

I’ve been holding on to these covers for quite some time now (about 8 months) and I’ve decided it’s time to let them go.

Based on the Criterion layout, these covers present the Despecialized project without cluttering the front artwork. I went with striking images and embellished them for a unique look. These are inspired by JMoomer’s previous designs, which I became obsessed with and decided to work on some originals. This is a set with a theme, and I have more sets designed with the same layout that have different themes (those will be posted at a later date so look out for further posts)

The covers are made for Criterion Single Disc Cases and are FREE TO DOWNLOAD AND PRINT FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY, which I would greatly enjoy seeing photos of.

! PLEASE KEEP THESE IMAGES OFF OTHER SITES !

I made these for the forum members here and I don’t want to find them anywhere else. If I see them pop up on eBay or other forums, the designs will be pulled and I won’t post any more of the many I’ve made.



However, if you would like a set made for you, I am offering to do so.

** IF YOU’RE READING THIS PASSED JULY 4TH IT’S ENDED

The trilogy set will be 40$, 15$ each individually, all in Criterion cases and with an inside print unique to each film as well.

NO DISCS INCLUDED!

those you will have to handle yourself. Shipping only to United States for now. This is a timed production. From now until the 4th of July, you can PM me if interested. Expected delivery by August 1st.

Hope you enjoy the designs and the coming covers.

-VM

really nice choice of abstract artwork for your Criterion OT Covers there - some top work and thanks for sharing.

I’ve add them to a list of single case sets, Box Sets, 3-in-1 / Trilogy covers etc by users on the ot.com, here:-

http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/A-list-of-Box-Sets-3-in-1-Trilogy-covers-single-case-sets-some-useful-links/id/53673

Whoa, what a great list! I generally don’t care much about covers myself but that’s a nice community resource.

cheers mate - with so many quality covers and art made by people on here through the years for all the various Star Wars releases, and custom covers too, I thought something like this may help us all find them a little easier.
