Oh, much better! I wasn't sure if showing the border would look right.

Nice ones, although I think it might be better to maybe change the colours of the sidebars.

Well. There is no copying since that picture I use is a snapshot from the film itself.

Haha.

I would also like to note that I am hoping to make some "fake covers" of the films not yet released by Criterion and I am very much open to having my work used on their DVDs, or at least have mine be the outline, for what they can use. For free. O:)
So Criterion, if you are interested, please contact me at
[email protected].
Thank you.

The Fantastic Planet cover really grabs my eye in a good way.
Love the colors, fonts, etc.
Real nice.

Why'd you clone the top layer of clouds in the Atonement cover? Limitation of the image you were using?

Incidentally, I think Chinatown would a be a great cover if the font was more in line with the original poster's.

Yeah, in my mind I really wanted to use the original title art... but god, it was hard to accomplish on Paint. ](*,)

I'm not carping, but your "Weekend" is practically the same as the Artificial Eye cover.

OH NO!
I got the image off of Google and since I haven't seen the film before (a friend asked me to do it) I assumed it was the opening credit scene.
I had NO idea it was a DVD cover already!

I know it's a joke, but I love the "Troll 2" cover. Oddly, it kind of reminds me of Criterion's own "Kwaidan" cover (I guess it's just the close-ups on the faces covered with...paint?!), and it is very much in the vein of some of their cult releases.
And yeah, I know that's not paint in "Troll 2."
