Guests Thanks:	QUOTE(cHooBe @ Jun 15 2006, 12:10 PM) [snapback]7320[/snapback] Hope this works! This is only my second ever cover design so please be gentle on me! I've only been using Photoshop for a couple of months That's looking really good, cHooBe! I don't think you need that small pic of the VW Camper at the bottom. Maybe rearrannge the logos, and add a credit block. (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/thumb.gif)

you are doing a fine job for your second cover it is awesome I did notice F.B gave you some advice and he is great with that But as the cover site has members from all over the world I might be best to not use the PG logo as they are different all over the world
Keep up the great work

Thanks for the feedback guys, it really is much appreciated! (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/thumb.gif)

The white box with the VW Camper (Fillmore) will be where I want to put the barcode when it becomes available, i'm trying to keep to the Disney Pixar retail DVD covers.

I forgot about the credits though, Damn it! Thanks for reminding me Filmboy. (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/whistle.gif)

That probably means i'll have to get rid of the PG ratings anyway to fit them in!

Thanks again guys............................

Choobe if you want to have a good look around the forums you will find a font called Steel tongs for writing credits & i think there might be a bar code thing there also which will save you waiting Film Boy is on line he might know where to find these things

Thanks dude, I got all them fonts and stuff already. I did put a request in for the barcode 'code' and Filmboy kindly told me that I probably won't find nothing yet (which I can't, cos i've looked).
I'm working on the cover at the moment (I'm doing a CAD course at the moment and my tutor has lent me a laptop so I can use Photoshop all day long!) (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/cheers.gif) <------- for my CAD tutor
I've deleted all the ratings and barcode area so I can find space for the credits (thanks Filmboy for reminding me). I am also thinking about doing a bonus features box under the synopsis text, not too sure yet as there isn't much info about the DVD yet.

you can play with this site for barcodes
http://www.barcodesinc.com/generator/index.php
but keep in mind that most custom cover designs leave out the barcode for a reason...it takes away from the artwork and is not necessary seeing they are not sold as retail.

but it's a thing of choice and I have used barcodes in the past, but don't any longer, hope the link helps.

nice start.

cheers

I very much like the cover to !

Other than a few things that have already been mentioned I can't really offer much other than my congrats on a fine cover so far.

I would skip the Barcode altogether though if it were my choice but then I can't make covers atall so......... Hehehe.

like mentioned above

guess its best to loose the barcode and all the "PG"

maybe put 'disney- pixar' (on the front) a bit higher, and more white ?

otherwise: nice cover !

Yoooow

Here's an update to my first Cars cover.

What do you think, is it good enough to upload to the gallery yet? (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/chin.gif)

Hi cHooBe is it possible for you to put a larger flat preview on so we can have a good look at it Its just a little to small to see
Film Boy has a tutorial in the site on how to upload previews
