Not too bad of a start Deds. Keep us updated.

I agree this looks like a great start.

You may also want to try reversing the front image so her head is against the left side and the arms are coming from the right. That will give a more confined feeling to the viewer.

If that does not sound like an interesting idea then how about extending the arms to the back of the cover as well?

thanks guys...... just been messing with it.... reversed the front to see:cool:
not sure about the spine at the moment, might not have the pic wrapping around... or, I might try and blend it into the back to get rid of that clean straight line. :AR15firing:

I looks real good, Deds!

I think You have a sound idea with fading the pic into the spine:thumbup:. If You should choose not to go that way - at least take a look at the spine as it is. I've attached a pic of a problem area, that You'll want to fix. You've got a line going there that should not be there.

If you wanted you could try it as if the girl was on the bottom of the cover with the hand holding her down as if she is lying down. This would help with the blending because there would not be a color break or whatnot.

well..... tried a few different things out and.... the best way I could think of to blend the front with the back was to change the back to a darker colour.
I havent blended them together properly yet but here's what I have so far....

The images on the back look a bit washed out. I would try color correction on them to make them pop a little more.
Other than that it looks great!!!

its about time i finished this up so...... heres my newest update. I think ive made the stills on the back look sharper, and added text, logos and such.
the FBI logo may look better if it was just one colour but cannot find one at the moment, if anyone could upload one i would be very grateful:D
your comments are very much appreciated as always:thumbup:

I agree on that FBI logo, m8. I'll upload some EPS for you in the Tools section... right about HERE (http://www.dvdcoversfuzion.com/forum/showthread.php?p=15203#post15203)
Now the other logos (DTS and so on) would look better if you even the space between them.

The stills looks better - but I can't figure out if they've got too much color now? - If you compare them to the colors of the front You can see what I mean...

cheers mate, ive grabbed the logo:thumbup: your right about the others not spaced correctly... i will change this:cool: the screen shots on the back? well i just tryed to make them stand out from the rest of the cover more, instead of just blending in:biggrinangelA:
