Excellent will be watching for them :)

Thanks @ everyone! Now I can continue my upcoming Star Wars and Indiana Jones collections!

Clear as a whistle.

Like I said, I'm adjusting the spines to even numbers, so they can be centered perfectly. I don't like if it's not centered or odd numbers :(

by ctaulbee » Tue Aug 13, 2013 10:05 pm

Your fine, no I didn't take it that you were mad or anything :)

Just making sure I was clear and that I wasn't implying something unintended is all.

I know, I know :) Not mad at ya or anything, sorry if it sounded that way.

My OCD really doesn't like the many types and sizes stated around the web, so I really, really needed to have only 1 size that would be working.

by ctaulbee » Tue Aug 13, 2013 9:58 pm

My response was just a matter of relaying to you what Elite says, I'm not into that whole right or wrong, fit or won't fit thing, truth is we're talking about a fractional difference here 60px @ 300 per inch is what 5mm hardly a big difference so yeah it will fit.

I was just giving you the factory PDF's with the sizes they recommend for reference bud.

An I'm fairly certain that all those sizes I listed are approved for here.

by falle » Tue Aug 13, 2013 9:55 pm

Okay, I've calmed down a bit now :)

Gonna use ctaulbee's dimensions with a twist.

For the 1/2/3 disc case I'll be using a spine of 142px instead of 143px so it can be centered totally, and for the 4/5/6 disc case it'll be a spine of 166px and centered totally. For the 7/8/9/10 disc case I'll be using JR's and ctaulbee's mentioned dimensions. All fronts and backs are 1488px.

If I adjust the height to 1762px instead of 1748px, will that be acceptable for the site?

by falle » Tue Aug 13, 2013 9:48 pm

I always used 3173x1762 for my Viva Elite cases and they fit very well. Is the 3118x1748 more accurate then?

Btw, here is where my headache started: http://www.hirescovers.net/forum/index.php...l&f_id=1206

by ctaulbee » Tue Aug 13, 2013 9:34 pm

If you convert the mm to px @ 300 dpi it's about 12px per mm so they work out to this:

6mm = 3106 X 1748 spine 59
12.5mm = 3118 X 1748 spine 143
15mm = 3142 X 1748 spine 165
25mm = 3260 X 1748 spine 284

Those are pretty well known sizes I think and they fit all my elite cases.

Perhaps send Dagon a pm? He usually knows his way around the case sizes :)
