Game Covers Resizing to Standard DVD Size

I finally found a Dead Space Extraction and No More Heroes 2 black covers. When I took them into a print shop they printed out too big for the paper, so I was wondering that if I provided the links for each cover that maybe someone could rescale the covers to standard DVD?

A: The DPI is incorrect. Please report this in the Point out mistakes to be fixed thread. In the mean time you can fix this pretty easily yourself by doing the following:
In photoshop, going to Image > Image Size, unchecking the box that says "resample image", and changing the resolution to 300 pixels/inch
In GIMP, goign to Image > Print Size and changing the X and Y resolutions to 300 pixels/inch
In MS Paint, go to file > page setup > scale to 32%

Make sure you're also using legal size paper if you aren't.
I was hoping that newbie FAQ would prevent people from asking this question over and over and over again but apparently nobody reads it so I guess not

In this case the guide is useless.
I just took closer look at the properties of those 2 covers.
I think nothing can be done to those.
2 inces high, 1000+ inces wide, 1DPI.

wow those covers have all kinds of fucked up dimensions.
size is wrong, dpi is wrong (when I opened it up in PS I didn't get what Arseen got, I got 72 dpi with a size of like, 9 inches high. This shit wouldn't even fit on legal size paper!)
I think what you probably could do is resize the images to our normal dvd cover resolution and then change the DPI to 300.

I have been using Gimp 2 and the covers are still printing WAY bigger than any paper I am using no matter the settings. I might scrap these covers and request covers from the forum while avoiding spamming the forum.
