Thanks! Funny thing is I finally found an actual whole image today that would have saved me some freaking time.

Here's the new and improved cover. Gonna do a test print tonight and send it to Evangelo.

I have updated my cover since everyone seems to really like the gun and poker chips of the poster. Some other changes have been made as well.

what are the exact dimensions of the cover ? Also, where do you guys get the back covers from (to create these) ? Do you scan your own ?

If you have a scanner you can scan the original cover and work from that. I usually do this but if the back is really ****** or an import that's not in English I'll redo the whole thing. You can find plenty of elements by doing a google search and put it together yourself through photoshop or paintshop pro.

The Blu-ray cover dimension is 3140x1740px. My covers are all 100 % custom. Everything including the back is made from scratch. I begin with a blank template and take it from there.

Deathstalker and Evangelo,

I noticed something odd on your back covers. There seems to be some type of "noise" like short squiggley lines in the image. You can see it best over the three pictures, the brighter top two showing it the most. But you can see it across LeChiffre's nose and in the light blue area where the disc specs are printed.

Any idea what this is?

I really love Deathstalker's, and I just printed it out. The quality of the front (the new art) looks fantastic. But I was disappointed at the quaility of the back over .

I downloaded Evangelo's and see the same thing on the back cover.

Did you both use the same scan? Isn't it possible to get a better quality scan of the back?

3140x1740 holds true in most cases but I found that certain blu rays are wider. For instance my Casino Royale cover matches almost perfectly with the official cover and the width is 3180 I believe.

He's using my scan. But when I looked at the official cover thats what it looked like on the cover. Maybe my copy had a ****** back? Can you check yours please?

Yes, I checked my original cover and it doesn't have those lines through it.

It is nice and clean.

I got a ****** back! Damn. Well thanks for that info. Since I dont have another copy I can easily replace the pictures with new pictures. How does that sound?

Is there anyway you could make a blu-ray house of wax cover. I got the disc off ebay and it didn't come in the original case. I have a case now just not any cover. Let me know. Thanks

I'm experimenting with scanning my original cover.

If I get decent results, maybe I can send it to you?

I was able to get a nice scan at 600 dpi.

I've been trying to scan at 1200dpi, but after I scan it my computer seems to go to hell and I can't do anything with the program, then I have to close it out. I guess I don't have enough memory or whatever to handle that.

Is a 600dpi scan high enough to duplicate the quality of the original cover?

When I try to print the covers they only come up about 3/4 the size they should be. I tried to change the size in the printing options and it was still small. Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong.

thanks

Wow the Casino Royale covers look great.

Have any of you guys written instructions on how to print these out? I couldn't find anything at the site or in the first few posts of this thread. Any help?

Open the files up in some photo editor (Photoshop or Fireworks as that is what I do). WHen you click print, select photo quality printing, glossy paper option, and critical to switch the printing to LANDSCAPE. That should print the entire cover on a single sheet.

I didn't like the swoosh cover either, but can't find a better image to use. This is a placeholder.

Nice. I'd be interested in seeing a cover that merged these two posters:

Poster1
Poster2

If the posters had more pixels, they could be put on both sides (ie: front and back with a spine in the middle. O/W, they could be used for the front and replace the front cover, but even then, they have to be scaled up substantially and can look pixelated. Anyone knows where a higher res version exists?

In the meantime, here's one that blends in the two.

I found this foreign poster and thought it looked better than the original team cover. This is my first one, let me know what you think.

Can someone do me a favor and just copy the Rocky Balboa cover? I dont need a custom one, just the current one. One of my idiot friends put the case on oily food and the cover art is ruined now.

FINALLY, an instance where a studio realizes how much they F'ed up on a cover, and went ahead and redid it for the fans. I hear a petition was started, and it appears as if it worked. Check it out, if you scroll down, they have the redesigned art and the original cover below it:

Can't wait for this release. Should look amazing.
