my first atempt at a hddvd, it was a request. i've had to download a SW cover and cut and paste some stuff from it to make it look more like hddvd cover, if you have any links (as i've looked but may of missed them) for the hddvd logos and stuff would be appreciated. got the SW blank hddvd template linked one

p.s. i know i has universal credits, g i also tried the 72 pixal thing and i must have a different seting as it still came out big, but i'll leave it for now.
just found a hddvd logo in , guess where logo's, thanx again SW for them, gunna go and suss them out
nope getting that damn error message again, won't let me open it, but it would be no good as i read it was eps file,

Looks very nice Dragonwarrior. One suggestion is to nudge the credits up because they're covering a part of the lettering on the chain holder (or whatever you call it).

BTW you can open an .EPS with Photoshop.. or are you using another program?

For the 72 pix size change make sure "constrain proportions" is checked off. after you change the 300 to 72 you should see the pix go from 3240x2175 to much less.
I am nort sure why your version of PS is not accepting a eps file. Are you drag and dropping or trying to open the file from the file/open menu? I usually only drag and drop. When I do it asks at which resolution I would like to open as.

As for the cover...This version looks good.

i went to save to web and changed some settings, 800 width but i can not see constrain proportions. this might be asking a lot but could someone do an a -z with pic's to show me as i have no clue. i can send them to imageshack and if they are over 1500 they get resized for me (free,lol). this is gunna be one of them things that is so easy, but so far its rocket science.
when i create a cover (the proper size) and then go to save i goto, File,SAVE AS

i couldn't even get the eps opened from here to try and i may also of got something to do with PS3 mixed up, when i saw it was eps

Been messing around with a label for it, why - don't know, unless it's uploadable, in that case i'd like to thank RiFF87 for the insperation as i have no clue what they look like.

I will make a quick tutorial for ya and post it tomorrow. Keep in mind that I may not have s many options as you. As I am still using my PS ver 7.0. Yeah, it's outta date but I can still work my magic with it.

As for the label. The only issue that I see is at the top. There looks to be a straight edge and not the curve of the circle. Then again it could be just a preview anomoly.

I was goin to put Santa came early (gift giving). However, I realized that now is still way too early.
Trying to relate it to Holloween, the only thing I could think of was an old Peanuts Hollween special that involved Charlie Brown waiting around for... The Great Pumpkin or something like that.

Oooops! did I give away my age? Well it's there for all to see.
