My friend lend me this movie the other day in this small case, which I thought was pretty cool. I know the design is not perfect but none the less is pretty nice.

I wanted to know if any of the cover design sites make these that you know of or any of you?

i am no cover designer but i have done around 4,000 of these and all i do is to get the cover and cut it up in nero photo viewer so you have got 3 parts then i put it back through photoshop using a smaller template , i have upload a template to rapidshare if you want it , i find that if i use samller cases it does not matter if the pic's are hi-res or not ,

Code: Select all

Isn't that just a blu-ray case?

Well I made this post to see if more people would be interested in making these small cases to save storage.

These cases are 142 x 124 x 7mm in dimensions. Fun little boxes to work with also space savers.

Here are 2 that I have made (Crank2 & Invincible) and one from SuperCool (Beowulf) so you guys/gals get a better idea.

We started this at JR's site not to long ago. There's a few titles in R2 for those interested.

I would like to get your opinions and suggestions on this.

I would really like to see more of these small cases around.

These are great little space savers, but I am not sure how utilised they would be. It is all about demand though, and I can't imagine that many people would use these. I could be wrong of course :D That first cover posted though looks like it has been squashed to fit :yikes:

The Ong Bak 2 was the one that my friend showed me and that's how I got the idea. That's just a scan I did to see if anyone was doing these.

In post #8 is how they would look when done correctly.
