Welcome Euphoricfx members

[bazzah]

It was a very sad day in the community, when Lucan had to announce the end of EFX's 19 year reign. It has been a fantastic site for a very long time, and has always been a friend of HiResCovers (with a big thanks to Curt). Lee (Lucan) and Curt (Ctaulbee) had worked hard to keep EFX running, but unfortunately the site has broken and is beyond repair. So I would like to welcome all of the EFX refugees to HiRes, and I hope you can make HiRes your new home.

Here are a few useful links for those who are not familiar with HiResCovers. Any other questions, please feel free to get in touch.

Like EFX, we work on a subscription basis for access to the galleries. Alternatively, contributors and designers also have full access to our galleries. To become a designer, you must first apply to become a contributor.

If you would like to become a contributor, please see the Prove Rules for more information.

We have a similar cover gallery to EFX (Coppermine) so I hope it is straight forward for you to use. There is a visual guide to using the cover gallery here, although it is quite old and a few things have changed.

Our resource gallery is focused on newer movie titles, and contains many title treatments and textless posters.

Design Assets is where you can find aids in creating custom covers and labels. Here you will find templates, fonts, studio logos etc.

If there is a cover or label that you need, you can make a Cover And Label request here. And you can make Resource Requests here. Please read the request rules for each section, before making a request.

We have two competitions every month. We have Cover Of The Month, and the HiResChallenge. Cover Of The Month works by our designers nominating 5 covers each. The covers with the most nominations then move to the voting stage, where everyone can vote on their top 3 covers. The HiResChallenge is where members create a custom cover for a theme which has been picked by last month's winner. More information can be found in the previous links. Everyone is welcome to take part in both of our competitions.

More information for everything else can be found in the site rules

Most of the site is self explanatory, but if you do have any questions then please send me a PM.

It was a sad day indeed, but Hi-Res will be a GREAT place for all EFX members

I've never been to EFX so I don't know all the guys from there getting over here.

But what I have seen so far we got some talented new designers.

Welcome everybody

That is an awesome well-written welcome Baz, thank you so much! Even if I've been a member here for a long time, my home base was EFX and was very sad when it closed. Lee definitely gave all he had to keep it going especially towards the end, and I'm sure it wasn't easy to let go.

I'm a member at other cover sites (both French and English), but this will definitely be my new home. I've already decorated my room, lol

I'm extremely happy to see so many of the gang joining here every day, this makes it less painful to lose EFX.

Again, thanks Baz for your message, those links will be sooooooooo helpful!!

I agree with Chou. Very sad to see EFX go away but I have to admit, it's only been a week since I have basically become a full time Hireser and I love it. This is a great place and no matter the site, the people make it home. Baz, I thank you for allowing me and my great friends of EFX to become part of your family here at Hires.


Go Phillies!!!!

Very sad that EFX died. When I get all my covers gathered together I will start posting here. This is my new home.
