while still recording WINGS on DVD, I am currently making sleeves for the dvd cases for wings

here is what one looks like so far

WOW....You are ONE "class act". Peter! (and so are your DVD cases)!

One suggestion, though....I realize that this would be a LOT more work for you, but you may want to consider different cover photos for different seasons of the show....

An early photo of the cast (with Lowell and minus Antonio) for the first and second seasons, a later photo with everyone except Alex and Casey for the "middle" run, a photo with Alex (that "metal staircase on wheels" shot would be great) for the "Alex" seasons...and of course, that EXCELLENT "playing with toy planes" shot that you're currently using for the later "Casey" seasons.

I never make things easy, do I?

yeah i'd like to do that but I personally am not taping the episodes myself as I dont live in america, i have a friend in los angeles who is recording them on dvd for me. So the episodes are mixed up, but i am not bothered as long as i get all 172 episodes in the end!

he is doing a really excellent job at the series, the quality is fantastic (as seen on my website) screenshots.

OK gang, let's pass the hat here....Let's cough up enough money to fly Peter to America, and let's see about getting him a job in the marketing or production department at Columbia House or Paramount Home Video....We NEED a guy like this working in our corner to bring "WINGS" to DVD...and to do a CLASSY, PROFESSIONAL job of it!

awesome job on the dvd cover, heck Id buy 1,000 dvds if I had the money, 1 for my viewing pleasure, 1 for my backup, and the rest to cover my bedroom walls,

Great job, Peter!

I too have taken on the arduous task of recording each episode of Wings, stripping out the commercials (I kept all opening and ending titles and credits), and burning to DVD. Once N@N airs some of the episodes they skipped last time around, I will have all Wings episodes on DVD - in order (no, I cannot sell copies).

Here is the coverart that I came up with (attached below). Each season is color coded and each cover list the episodes on back. Couldn't find picture for each season that were high enough quality for the cover, so I used this one throughout.

hojni · 08-18-2003, 11:27 PM

I have also made labels for my DVD's. Here's a sample.

c5guy · 08-19-2003, 12:14 AM

Great work guys!!! This place is full of creative talent.

Everybody's DVD Cover Art looks GREAT! I don't have a DVD Writer

At least I have a CDRW in my computer so I can atleast try to do it on VCD

At least VCDs won't wear out like VHS tapes...
