I made these for my collection of Despecialized discs. I based them off a couple of designs from this thread and the DVD one. I can't remember the names of the contributors, so if anyone remembers please let me know and I will give them the recognition they deserve.

I went with a minimalist approach and incorporated the Ralph McQuarrie concept art because I really didn't want to use any stills from the films. I took the one sentence summaries from part of my DVD summaries.

*EDIT* Recognition goes to chyron8472, michaeldc, and EyeShotFirst.

 Can I ask what font you used on the spine and back?  I really like it.

It's called ITCSerifGothic Roman. It's the closest match I could find of the "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away" copy on the front cover of the STAR WARS cover. 

That could work, too. The Star Wars title is actually the png logo taken from starwars.com. I attempted to use the fonts available online, like Star Jedi, but I was never happy with how it turned out.

Overall, I feel okay about it. Yeah it looks kind of out of place when placed together on display, but I feel it works because Star Wars was originally supposed to be a stand alone film in the first place. I guess the covers unexpectedly reflects that, at least for me.

Yeah I struggled with that a bit too. I think I might make another one with A New Hope. Or, I might line it up and see how it looks. I'm also thinking I could make the left side of the front covers be the spine, replacing the blue, (although, I do like the blue.) I'm glad you like them! I actually made them for my parents who love the OT but have never owned them themselves.

*SOLVED*

Was a speed issue.

So I am currently writing the AVCHD version of SW-DE v2.5 to a DL dvd with imgburn. The first disc stopped at 56%. The "time until finished" was at "unknown" and there was nothing happening in the disc drive. No noise, no flashing lights like it was up to that point. I decided to try another disc.

This time it was more promising, but it stopped at 82%. Same thing as before.

This is the last part on my log:

13:24:31 Writing Track 1 of 1... (MODE1/2048, LBA: 0 - 4142847) 

13:24:31 Writing Layer 0... (LBA: 0 - 2071423) I

13:36:24 Writing Layer 1... (LBA: 2071424 - 4142847)

It's now been over an hour since that last log point, and nothing has happened. Anyone have any ideas?

*Note*
The writing speed is set to MAX I think. Could this be the issue? The disc is an 8x one...

Thanks in advance.

*UPDATE*
It's now been two hours since it has pretty much froze.

*Edit*
Could it be that my disc drive is over heating/over working and just shutting itself off? It's not flashing lights or doing anything, and it won't respond when I push the button to eject the disc.

ChainsawASH did the 90 box set, so I've decided to tackle the 92 box set.

I will upload these after I am confident in their quality, and I am done with the Blu Ray sized covers I am doing for Harmy's edits.

The images I used are the highest quality I could manage. Painstaking hours in front of a computer searching for the highest of quality images. The fonts I used aren't exact, but they are very close.

 

 Is there another link to get these somewhere? The mediafire link no longer works.

I am trying the Pirate Bay downloads you mentioned. My quicktime player couldn't play them. I would like to download from myspleen but I have no way of getting on there as you need an invitation.
