Jaguar CD Custom DVD Cases

Very nice looking!

Thanks guys, I am working on a Varuna's Forces 2 disc set next and then Brett Hull Hockey.

Fella you need to play with the settings.  Set the outer to 120 and inner to 20mm.

Why? They look pretty much perfect to me.

That's pretty much what I've done with the free games that are available to burn on CD.  I have a CD printer and I just make them look nice before burning them.  They do look very nice so I can certainly appreciate what you did there, Laird!

Now I have a CD printer I have been playing around with some designs for discs.

Many of you will have seen my DVD cover designs for the various prototypes that either didn't come with proper boxes (like Varuna Forces and Caves Of Fear) and the ones that did come with boxes but ones that look like they were designed by Steve Wonder (Jaguar Hockey and Demolition Man), but until now I also had to put up with awful looking CDs too!

Well not any more!  :8:

More to come . . . . .

Because that does not look right mate..

[TL]

Explain to me why, because I have no idea what is wrong with it.

The outer white and inner white lines that are visable pal..

Yeah I know but I like that and most of the commercial Jag CD releases have that too.

[zapiy]

Really?

I thought all images on commercial cd/dvd's were pressed on and therefore would not show any white as there is none in the first place..

[dubchaser]

Ooh pretty. Will look great all in a row on a shelve.

[TrekMD]

Those white lines may be unavoidable because of printer limitations.

My Epson will allow me to print to both edges, eliminating the white space - it just takes a little longer to dry.

Laird is using an Epson r220 with allows for full disc printing, I suspect the core of the discs he's using is not a printable area therefore show is at 42mm printing range. I use the Epson r265 printers with a continuous ink system saves incredibly on he print, as Epson are known for using ink up on customers, even switching it off and back on for use, uses 3%, nozzle clean 8%, charging the cartridges 13% .

You can get continuous ink systems for this printer, if your serious about printing, works out far cheaper.

[zapiy]

I used to use the continuous system on the printer before I have it to Laird. I have the kit here that cost me a pretty penny but like you say it was cheaper as running some of the maintenance on it used up a lot of ink.
