I will complete this series. You'll see more as more dvds are released. Thanx for the compliment, I hope the community likes them and uses them.

i love them, makes the series look like a proper collection, plus I use them for the audio discs as well with some minor resizing...also used your WC club tour poster as cover art for all of those shows.... i know sometimes it isn't said enough, but I for one totally appreciate all of the work people around here put into making the bootlegs, dvds, etc. Tapers, editors, artwork, seeders, you guys all do fabulous work, and THANKS!

Can anyone give a computer illiterate any guidance on how to print these off for a jewel case!? Please go easy on me!
Thanks.

Thanks.
They are meant for DVD cases, not standard jewel cases, so you will have scale/crop them to fit a jewel case. The steps to do this depend on what software you have.

Not from the "fling" but from a recently released dvd from one of the club gigs:

Hi-res version here.
As well, all the covers can be found here.

Nice one, Corby! :D I was wondering if you were doing any covers for the club shows. I've nearly downloaded all the Pheonix one as well. 8)

Nice work on the DVD covers. Thank you very much for taking the time to put them together, they look amazing.

Has anybody put together an actual label for the discs? It would be amazing to have a nice looking label to go with the covers. I have played around a little bit, but I lack any skill. If I do manage to put something together that is worth using, I will be sure to post it.

I used to put labels on discs but found after time the disc wouldn't work on some players so i stopped doing it.

Yeah, I actually went out and bought some lightscribe DVDs with the thoughts that I would design a killer label for the Vancouver show. I clearly gave myself too much credit though, I can't create anything worth looking at!

I generally avoid the sticker cd labels. I don't trust the stampers to be precise enough to create a perfectly balanced disc anymore after one blew up in my drive.

Printable cd/dvd's is the only way to go...especially on slot loading cd drives!

very risky nowadays to have cd stickers

Ouch!

I don't really bother with printing labels for discs. Aslong as there is a decent cover for the DVD case (and there are for all my Hip DVD's, thanks to Corby! :thumb:) I'm happy.

Again, not part of the fling, but here's a cover for the ACC show that srb posted on the tracker recently. I've used Corby's covers as the inspiration, but tried to put my own stamp on them.
