Ok taken note of what everyone has said and made some alterations to front and back.

Changed cast names on the front to same font as the movie title (font is Kenyancoffee).
Also removed the stroke from main title.

Back:

i managed to find a shorter synopsis and made a few alterations to layout.

what ya think?

Still looking great, the special features heading coud be a tad darker like the TT imo though

I agree with CookieMonster.
Just a tinny thought of the back: About Nick Nolte and the woman images, i think they are, just a little, to close to the fighters.
Hope that you don't think i'm been to "pickie", because all the rest are great, Demo.

This is a great poking cover Scott, a real bute!

I hear ya about the lost work when Photoshop 'Quits Unexpectedly'... I am the fool every time, get into a rhythm and when you have just finished a big intricate part that had a lot of trial and error, boom, it crashes.

Man, makes me want to scream sometimes. Wish PS had auto save like so many other programs... I don't even care if it forces me to stop working every ten mins and asks me if I want it saved!

Anywho, back to your cover.

Love the details on all the image work. I do a lot of that too... it may not get noticed on the whole cover, but it's those little things that really make it all flow!

The only thing from me on the cover would maybe be to put a spine pic on it of the front character. Also, might look better to shrink the bar code to open up space for the images (not knowing if you are trying to stick with a retail one).

Keep it up buddy, looks great!

Sxxo i did try seperating the charactars but it did look weird.... bringing em togther the way have bring the
meaning of the film that behind every warrior their is that certain someone who drives them.

Thanx BPM maybe you should email the idea to adobe lol they may eventually incorporate in the next edition.

I'll upload another preview in abit i have a spine pic but it's not from the front (not a fan of duplicate images being used).
The barcode i'll probably do as you suggested and size it down abit.

I read in a forum somewhere where an actual Adobe employee posts on... the discussion was about auto save. The employee said it is more complicated than just creating an autosave. He said that it takes a lot of memory to create multiple autosave files and store them until the file is actually saved.

My thought is, why not just create one auto save and keep replacing it. Personally I would be more than willing to spare a few gigs of space on my hard drive for auto saves so that I never have to go through that.

Oh well... done ranting! LOL

With huge amount of help from jpeg

pretty much close to finishing this preview of back and spine below.

the SFs looks a bit cluttered IMO - perhaps try them in two rows instead?

Liking that you've made the characters stand out a bit more

Ok JR done as you asked and in my opinion they do look alot better in 2 lines

so thanx for that

also change the border on the spine to just top and bottom instead of all the way around.

Better! I think lose the two small pics next to the SFs - or place the pics somewhere else - to give the text some more room.
