Hi folks,
in sight of the fact that the official DVD release of the Kissin' Cousins DVD will still take a while, I consoled myself with a self produced DVD for which I demuxed, edited, processed and remuxed the MPEG files from the Warner VCD. Here is the cover.
You can download the cover via ep-tunes.de or use this direct download link.
Hope you like it.
Well, I gotta say, it's not one of my favourite Elvis movies, but you sure did a great job on the cover design - it would be right at home on the shelf among the official Elvis DVD movie covers (y)
I will attatch the small previews from the website link you gave for now................
Thanks for your help and your comments, guys. (y)
It works again and I have added the thumbnails above (this flexible edit function is a great feature).
I am sorry to say I just noticed that there is a blemish on the backside. The text (white on red) was to run around the picture with the outraged Pa Morgan, but it doesn't. Well, it will take a while before an improved version will be online. :'(
very good and colorfull design! Should be nice DVD cover although the movie is not that good... :cool:
Nice job...and i like the movie too :blush: seriously i do....i think its a good fun film....and your covers go very nicely along with that.....Cool work (y)
That's a pity, but I definitely like to read such straight comments. (y).Quote:

Unchained, I am looking forward to reading your next remarks about my work.
The fun is, that I consider this one a mediocre and conventional cover. That's why I don't give much for it myself.Quote:

****. It seems ep-tunes isn't online right now and I can't check which files were uploaded. There were mistakes in the first version I made, but I corrected them before the files went online (at least, that's what I thought :blink: ). I confused the names Josh and Jody several times (well, they are really looking like twins :D). Is that one of the mistakes you mean?Quote:

Well, I can't follow you there, but naturally I am somewhat blind in evaluating my own work. In my eyes, the Veni Vidi Vici (i.e.) cover was a fresh design with some elements unseen before.Quote:

Personally I would always welcome constructive criticism, but by the same token, there are others that perhaps take those sort of comments a little too personally.
My opinion is, if you are going to post any artwork and invite comments, you should be prepared to accept the criticism as well as the praise. Nice to have another member here that also welcomes such straight talking. (y)
Well Ill be lucky 7 ... nice cover on the whole. I am not technical enough to comment on that aspect, but as this was the only double role Elvis played I feel you should have had both the Morgan's on the cover.
I liked (and still do ) the movie ..not bad, just some light hearted fun that I really enjoyed from when it first came out: :lol:
I do wish they could have done away with the Kitty hawks ..but shown those gals in a different role.....:P waiting impatiently for this and Girl Happy to come out : I loved the begining titles.

I'm joining in on this one...Kissin' Cousins deserves more credit. My heart melts when Yvonne is chasing him around that tree :blush: :lol:Quote:

Manhattoe, I think your cover is very original and very nice. Maybe everyone says such nice things instead of bad because you have a great talent. I usually don't post that often, unless I really like the artwork. That's my way of being truthful. That and sometimes I don't have the time to check out all the work everyone's been doing.
I visited your website and I really loved your Country Sides--was really pretty--and Spiout cover art, too!

I'm not too fond of the colours used on this design but that is merely personal taste. I think a plain white background would have looked fine. I really, really love the back cover though. Really nice layout. So I give you props for that (y)
Actually, these are not my colors, but I did this design the same time when I was working on the Have a Happy collection and was temporarily caught in a 60s sentiment.Quote:

Right now, I would choose a quite different approach to that DVD cover, but that's a another story ...
Thanks for your comment. (y)
