Does anyone have "Troy", "Intorerable Cruelity" and "The Day After Tommorrow"? I can never seem to make as good as covers as the folks here. Thanks

Use the templates on Nathan's site & get the DVD covers from sites lile dagonsden.com & a few others out there ... or scan in your DVD covers. If you use my Photoshop template, just drop the DVD artwork into the D-VHS template, then modify it as needed to fit/scale & remove any DVD-related labels/wording. The only Photoshop tools you really need to teach yourself are the 'healing brush', 'rubber stamp' & of course cropping/rotating/scaling. Lots of Photoshop tutorials on the Web. I won't lie & say it isn't a good deal of effort to make decent covers, but it's actually kinda fun.

I don't have Photoshop, I've always just used paint, but that doesn't seem to work out for converting DVD to Vhs. Works fine for CD cvers ect.

Good for you Nathan. I was beginning to wonder if you were going to post any of my covers ;). I'll have a few more to you soon, including "Chinatown".

Brajesh
07-11-05, 08:40 PM
Hey Matt, I'll make you a cover for "Scent of a Woman" in exchange for a D-VHS copy. I'll even pay for the cost of the tape & shipping! :p

Nathan_R

Sorry, Brajesh-- I wasn't ignorning you. Just been busy courting the next future ex-whatever. :D

Great tape labels, by the way.

I'm ready for the next batch of covers. Keep 'em coming, guys! D-VHS isn't dead!

Well, it's 5C, so I cannot make any copies. Sorry, mate! :)

Brajesh
08-05-05, 09:13 AM
Yep, I discovered that on my system as well when I tried to copy "Shrek 2" for a friend. I guess it had a "copy once" flag. I thought providers like HBO put the flag, but it appears my cable provider is doing it? I don't know. I do know someone who's able to make copies of his movies using two D-VHS decks.

HBO has "Scent of a Woman" on 9/4, so I'll be taping that & making a D-VHS cover, which I'll send to Nathan.

I am working on a poster for my room to have logos of all my equipment. I know it is not "cover" related, but I thought someone here may have an EPS or large JPG of the D-Theater logo. I just want to put the logo on a poster I make.
If so, PM me and maybe it can be emailed.

thanks!

Brajesh
08-26-05, 05:16 PM
The largest graphic I found is @ http://www.jvc-victor.co.jp/english/D-VHS/dvhslogo.gif

With Photoshop, you can use the 'magic wand' tool to grab the D-VHS shape, then blow that up to any size you want, then fill-in with black using 'paint can' tool.

tkmedia2
08-26-05, 11:05 PM
I already sent him an EPS of that Brajesh. Anybody have the D-theater logo eps? I used to have it, but my file is no longer working. I dont remember where I DL it from.

Yeah, you tend to learn fast as you use the software. I am down to 7 minutes on some of them. They keep getting better and better as I learn PS. I haven't yet done Dodgeball and Punisher so why don't you upload them to Nathan? It would save me some time so I won't have to do them myself.

10-18-05, 06:04 PM

Can anyone provide scans, images, screen caps for RAN and KAGEMUSHA?

tkmedia2
01-23-06, 10:56 PM
Sorry I have no images from those matt.

A lot of times I get the DVD and take a mess of screenshots to make a cover. Sometimes much easier and faster than using a TS file. But of course less res. So, I go back to the TS file for a higer res image, but for images on the back cover DVD res is often enough. The cover I just posted is an example. I thought all the promo artwork for the movies sucked. Mine not much of an improvement, but I like it better. If you go this route, it's often good if you watch the trailers for images/scenes that might work well for a cover.

Matt_Stevens
01-24-06, 06:51 AM
I normally use covers and inserts from the DVD myself. But for the titles mentioned above I have no DVD counterparts.

Grrr, so I have a new printer (Dell's 924 is a black ink glutton, BTW) and messed up the margins / page setup. Can someone give me the margins and page setup items needed for printing covers on landscape 8.5x11 paper. I can't for the life of me get Contact or Shrek 2 to print properly-- they're either too tall or too short.

Thanks!


EDIT : I figured it out. The page setup for my Dell 924 requires me to set the top margin to .5" and 0" for all others. The page URL prints out by default, but it's outside of the print area, so no worries.

I have just sent Nathan 5 more covers.. Alexander, Bullitt, Ghostbusters, Million Dollar Baby and Thin Red Line. Working on more when time permits. Can someone scan the DVHS cover of "Standing In The Shadows Of Motown" and put it on the site?

I received a boatload of covers from several people today. I'll update the site this weekend.

As far as scanning D-Theater or commercially available D-VHS covers, I'd rather not host those.

Matt_Stevens
02-03-06, 08:09 AM
In the past few days I have sent him Star Trek 1 & 2, Hellraiser, Network, Return of the King (matches the other LOTR covers I sent way back when), 1492, Above the Law & Hard to Kill, Sin City, Collateral, and Before Sunset.

You will notice that most of my covers are far different from their DVD counterparts. I only use DVD artwork when absolutely necessary. I always try to find high quality scans and art elsewhere to make my covers really different.

I am still searching for DUNE material. :(

Brajesh
02-03-06, 11:19 AM
Just sent "Donnie Brasco", "Jackie Brown" & "Winged Migration".

Matt, I see a couple of hi-res scans of the "Dune" DVD & others on http://covers.to/

Between updates, It will be nice if everyone posted what was uploaded. That way users might not have to start creating a cover that was already uploaded... but not updated.

*WAIT! I dont even know what I said!:D

Matt,
Looks like Nathan did not get the covers for "Collateral" and "Before Sunset", would you mind resending them?
By the way, a huge THANK YOU to everyone involved in making and hosting the covers, it just takes the whole DVHS collection to a whole new level.

Nathan_R
02-04-06, 12:45 PM
Updated again with Brajesh's covers from yesterday. If you guys know which covers on the site are yours (even the old ones), send me a note and I'll add credits to each one.

Matt_Stevens
02-04-06, 03:03 PM
Nathan, well done. Credit should go to those who create. :)

I'll re-send Sunset and Collateral tonight.

Given that I have taken more than contributed, I have been trying to learn how to make some of these covers myself so that I can share as well. The GeorgiaHDTV tutorial is helpful, but I am using a Roxio Photosuite 5 program which is a little different than the Adobe Program. I obviously need more practice because none seem to look as professional as the ones shared here. In the meantime, has anyone scanned the "Paycheck" cover or made one for "National Treasure?"

Nice Lost Highway cover, but how about dumping the critic blubs? I cannot stand them. Find them distracting and never include them in my covers if I can.

The only one that would be cool would be the "Two Tumbs Down" from Siskel & Ebert that was used to promote the film. That was brilliant marketing on their part, just so completely Lynchian. :)

Nathan,

Thanks for the credit on those titles. Many were made from the original dvd/poster artwork in conjunction with Brajesh's D-VHS template. Some were made using an amalgam of DVD covers posted by some very creative artists at www.generetic.net.

Thanks for hosting the site for the DVHS covers as well as those excellent tutorials.

Hello everyone,

I'm curious if any of you have found where to buy the rounded type of vhs boxes, similar to D-Theater cases? I did manage to order some black cases from www.polylinecorp.com but they ran out. They do still have white cases in the same shape but I really wanted black. Of course, it's impossible to get the silver/grey cases that are true D-Theater. If anyone knows where to get this type of case please PM (private message) me. Or just post it, I'm sure everyone else on the board would like to know. By the way; I've made a lot of D-VHS covers. Does anyone post them on their website? I've emailed the folks at www.georgiahdtv.com because they have a LOT of them. I never received any response though.

Thanks,

Roger :D

tkmedia2
04-28-06, 06:51 PM
Roger, most of my covers are designed for those polyline capsule boxes. I've ordered a box of black and a box of white last year. I think the white ones look much better than the black IMO. Silver boxes were made special for JVC. Most of the D-VHS covers posted here are also on the georgiahdtv site. Nathan_R who posted above you maintain that site.

Nathan_R
04-30-06, 04:20 PM
Roger, your email probably went into the spam folder by accident. I get a ton of unsolicited crap (not saying your email was such) sent to the website, and most of it is bulk-deleted. All the same, I don't sell or have any extra bullet cases.

Hi all -

Just thought I'd pass on a little find I stumbled across recently at my local Frys.

The TDK SVHS tapes (can't remember what the product number is, but they are mostly white with a blue highlight to them), have stickes saying they are $14.99, are marked on shelf for $7.99, but ring up at the cashier at 90 cents. I've purchased a good number, and probably have worked them out of their supply here in town. They don't seem to put many out at a time, so multiple trips might pay off for you.

I've recorded several movies on these on my Mits DVHS, and all looks good!

Sure do, as new ones are posted, must have about all of them now, not only do I use them for D-VHS covers, from a 16X9 time set-up, some I use as wall paper on some of my computers.

All neat stuff, but understand your position (space), none the less a BIG thanks for your effort with this!

I'm not all that sure if HD Optical will go beyond nitch, as many hope, at least you can record with D-VHS NOW! BTW: I do have a HD DVD A1 in addition to my JVC's :)
