Title: Other DVD cases
Post by: nLadPro on July 13, 2020, 11:33:14 AM
Anyone else here ever have the idea of making and/or downloading covers for non-standard DVD cases?

That is, slim and chubby? If so, I would like to know more and perhaps receive templates with those two other spine sizes.

No rush...

Taketheword had the idea to store game manuals in slim DVD cases:

That's cool. Thanks
Any news on the "chubby" cases? I was just wondering because I have a label for an original retail copy of Star Wars Battlefront for PC that I feel could use replacing
Sorry, I don't have a working scanner to upload it

When I was young and naive, I converted a bunch of my PS2 games into slim-line cases.  Through out the covers over the next couple years.  Yeah, that was fucking stupid of me.  Never doing that again.  Keeping everything OEM that I can.  "But you save space".  Yeah, but you then have to store the actual cases somewhere, or else you can be like me and lose about a thousand dollars, sigh

I convert my PS1 games over to DVD sized cases. If I have the art for the game I place it in the book holder and toss the rest of the jewel case.

I just got a new printer/scanner recently, and I took a scan of my Lego Star Wars 1 PC cover and made this template

Tell me if this works for people?

Make it 300DPI so it's correctly sized (now it's 96DPI and hand towel sized) and it's usable.
