Filmboy is trying to remind people not to consider a contributor on your personal taste in cover art. Critisism, and advice is always welcome, but this thread is primarily for you to give your opinion on weather their work qualifies as a contributor.

Saying that, I feel that username has proved himself, and so do the artists, and will be promoted to a contributor. Congratulations.

I'm supposed to say that I don't think they are up to scratch, but not help out on how to fix them?

Please excuse my helpfulness. I'll try to restrain myself in the future.

I understand that. I'm always welcome to changes or new ideas to my covers though....

The 2 screenshots on the left are in close proximity. The top one is almost touching the text. In contrast there is a large gap surrounding the one of the right & also large gap above & below the logo's.

3/4 of the cover is tightly packed making the 1/4 which is widely spaced look like it doesn't belong there.

Hope that explains it better.

Cheers

ps. I would have faked the special features rather than replacing it with the screenshots. I think the special feature box looked good. Just to clarify, the special features comment was marked IMO (in my opinion) Others may like an empty box to fill in later. I just can't see the point.

I like your first Click cover. Your second one, the screenshots look disjointed.

What do you mean by disjointed?

My Super Ex-Girlfriend looks nice. You haven't centered the credits though & they look like they might actually have some missing of the edge of the page. You also need to get rid of that last line. Perhaps by putting more on the first line, or by leaving something out.


I fixed the credits and took out the SPECIAL FEATURES

I like the Will Smith collection one. I think by putting I-Robot in the centre it would have created a better balance for your screenshots. The corner indentation on Bad Boys is also a different size to the other two.

I like your first Click cover. Your second one, the screenshots look disjointed. I'd also consider adding "credits" to that one. I don't think the first one needs them though.

Perhaps by putting more on the first line, or by leaving something out. I'm not a fan of empty Special Features blocks. IMO either fake/guestimate them or don't include them otherwise the cover is unprintable unless the user enters the details themselves.

Your labels look fine.

I only looked at your posted covers, not the links.

Good luck with your bid for contributor status.

Cheers

the only other thing is the will smith collection...2 of the films have follow ups-so i would have picked 3 singular films like i-robot/independance day/enemy of the state.


That is a 5 disc collection set has both Bad Boys 1&2, as well as MIB 1&2
