I am no cover artist by any stretch of the imagination but i can alter them slightly. I decided to take the 5 disc retail and make 5 individual covers. Below is a sample. The only thing I would change on the others is the episodes on the back, the disc number on the spine and disc number on the front. If others think they could use it or have any feedback for me I'd be more than happy to share them. It'll just take a while to finsih the others.

I know. To be honest I am not happy with the way I shrunk that down to size but didn't have too much luck with it. It does look a little squeezed.

If you using Photo Shop, You can hold the Shift key, when you resize pictures. Wink

It's a nice idea, dznutz. Smile
But i have some suggestions:
maybe you can blend the spine with the background.
On the left side bottom in your episode box i see that the black line isn't cut out well.
And if you want a challenge, Make a new background, cut out all pictures and paste them again. Wink

Good luck, cheers Very Happy

Hi dznutz, You've excelled yourself with this cover. All you need to do is to correct the things that nonini has pointed out and you should then have a very nice cover... Well done mate... Very Happy Wink

Wow, I just got back on line after 8 days without electricity or the internet and seen all these replies. I lost my electric Oct 12th and just gopt back online earliertoday. I am so far behind on things it isn't even funny. I alos take on more projects than I can handle at times but I haven't given up on this cover. Once you guys get to know me you will see that I go from project to project but eventually get back to things I never finished. Anyway it's nice to get all this encouragement from some ver familiar names and it is VERY nice to be back online and especially nice to have electric. Just be patient with me as I have 101 things going on. Thanks again for all the encouragement.

Dz

As everyone knows I have been very busy the past few months, so sorry for the late response.

I also like it, but I would suggest using the image on the front and reducing it to fit on the spine so it doesn't look stretched.

By the way skimaster4524, try not to write your posts in large font, it tends to be hard on the eyes. I am however, very glad to see you participating. We need more members like you. Very Happy
