I was a member but looks like I lost my position with the rule change. I mostly stick to anime and foreign films space savers. So here goes.

Some of my stuff is already on display here:

Here are some of my newer customs cover:

How many covers do you have under your belt? How many do you plan on contributing? Your work looks good.

I only make labels and movie covers based on my needs. So I am not as productive as some others. Plus hi-res images are almost unheard of for anime (unles they become popular in the US) so they are more difficult to produce than first run US movies.

Some more samples.

Berserk complete collection cover

Noir labels
Custom rebuilds of the retail labels. The original discs were reflective so I rebuilt all of the elements and recreated the 7 different labels. Then I used 3 different B&W combinations to allow for those who like to print different variations based on use of ink. Rebuilding retail labels to spec is a lot harder than you think.

And that is all the upload space I have on my post...

Try using imageShack in future, you will have unlimited space for your upload needs then and the maximum file size is 1.5MB

For those that need to see more and are members of R1DB or generetic.org, you can look up my other work under my same handle at each.

I know irrob and most of you others are members in at least one of the 2 other sites.

Can we see a couple more covers? All the artists agree you should become a contributor, and hopefully soon a designer, but we do need to see the 8 covers before we can move your group!

For some reason I cannot get imageshack.us to take my upload so I am stuck.

Just a suggestion so others might not have to try and find a hosting site and have the same kind of problems I am having.

*If you are going to demand 8 covers at 800x600 the Global space for the post should have enough room for the 8 covers onsite.

Anyway, I will try and figure out what the problem is with imageshack and link when I can.

Not sure what was happening but it is now working...

Black Adder conversion from brick to 4 in 1 standard case

Justice league Season 1 pack convers to standard cover + alt

Fraggle rock season 1 conversion from brick to 4 in 1 standard case

Ninja scroll the series cover

Nice attitude (IMG:http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/style_emoticons/default/eek5.gif) Actualy, most sites don't allow you to host any preview images. How about a rephrase here.

'Would it be possible to increase the global space we are allowed for attachments?'

All the other groups have 20mb, and staff have 50mb. This is to stop unnecasary space being used, when there are plenty of free image hosting sites available.

They are up now. That was a pita.

I still stand by my suggestion. If you are worried about space, once the person is ok'd to become a member/artist/contributor you can delete his/her "prove yourself" thread and gain the space back.

But you have your way of doing it. No attitude, just a matter of fact suggestion.
