Did Ken give his OK yet?  Yes, of course! It has always been OK to submit new covers without case/banner. Ken has just told us to wait stripping banners from existing covers (except if the replacing cover is a major improvement in quality). | | | | Last edited: by RHo |

| | Posted: | | | | New rules up as of today! "HD DVD and Blu-Ray discs in either HD Slim or HD Keep Case type cases without slip covers should be scanned without the HD banner. " Gentlemen, start your submissions!  |

| | Posted: | | | | cue numerous lame jokes about Erik going off prematurely!   I'm just glad I don't have many HD discs - I'd hate to see my voting list if I had more! |

| | Posted: | | | | I am curious if we need the black combo banner since there is a combo banner built-in to the program...I realize it is printed on the cover...but it seems redundant to me...just thinking.  |

If it's part of the cover that is scanned, I say leave it in. We don't crop anything off other covers. | | | ...James

Seems to me they should NOT be included. I don't know if we want to go down that path, cos then people will start saying we don't need to include "edition" banners or "paramount collection" banners. I say if it's on the piece of card inserted in the case, then it gets scanned. Keep it nice and simple Edit: wot he said. | | | | Last edited: by northbloke |

| | Posted: | | | | Well, now that the rules on this finally make sense, there's no point throwing spanners like this in the works. |

| | Posted: | | | | Good points made. The object of the banners was to only have the actual cover scan and not something that was part of the case. I'm OK with it either way. I'll probably crop them for my person db but certainly don't see a need to create a huge stink over it if the feelings are to leave it as is. OT - if James and I disagree then one of us must agree with Skip (I'm guessing it will be James  ) |

cue numerous lame jokes about Erik going off prematurely! I really need to visit the forums more often, this is slanderous! Had some good "intel" about this being banner-chopping-day, hence all the early contributions Rick mentioned.  And, yes, the black HD/DVD strip on Warner Bros. covers should indeed stay. After submitted some 130+ scans I'll go and pass out somewhere now.  | | | Erik

| | Posted: | | | | I'm rescanning some of my HD DVDs and wondered if anyone had a hi-res image of the Universal swish cover that I can use as a layer in photoshop. I already have the one that says "THE LOOK AND SOUND OF PERFECT" at 750 pixels wide, but I also need the one that says "THE BEST IN PICTURE SOUND AND INTERACTIVITY".
If anyone has a high res version of these it would be most appreciated.
Thanks. | | | | Stuart | | | | Last edited: by Gadgeteer |
