DVD, Blu-ray & Console Cover Templates
 

As of April 2015 - This set of DVD Cover templates for Customaniacs accepted sizes is still valid.

Simple to use - Fade the layer to a percentage (pre-faded to about 65%), add as many layers as you want to work on (keeping the faded template layer on top). The both sides are coloured (I have added on some of them entering guide-lines to all the templates to help centre and align everything) and the spine is transparent so that you can see what you are doing with regard to alignment of that etc.

In three versions, as was my old set.

PSP (Paint Shop Pro)
PSD (photoshop)
PNG for those who use neither PSP or Photoshop.

All are at 300dpi (though the PNG states 118 which is pixels per centimetre (the same as 300dpi) but after making the cover you might want to convert it to save as 300dpi. In older versions of PSP you can do this by choosing the resize option. Within the pop-up dialogue - select the 'Actual Size' option - and replace the 118.000 with 300 making sure the drop-down box adjacent is set to cm/pix. After exiting this save it and it will be 300dpi.

Here is the supported list:

DVD COVERS

Note that several suppliers now provide a single Amaray case size with 2, 4 and even 6 disc trays.

Standard Amaray: 3240 (1535+170+1535) x 2175

BLU-RAY

Blu-ray cases tend to come in several different sizes. Most important is the spine width measurement, which is typically either 11mm (approx size in USA and some Europe) or 14mm (Europe). Larger disc sets may also come in a 25mm spine format. We will allow some variation from the suggested cover sizes below but at a minimum the spine must be accurate in each case.

3118 (1523+72+1523) x 1762 (6mm spine)
3173 (1523+127+1523) x 1762 (10.75mm spine)
3120 (1490+140+1490) x 1748 (11.8mm spine)
3172 (1516+140+1516) x 1762 (11.8mm spine)
3172 (1501+170+1501) x 1762 (14mm spine)
3212 (1521+170+1521) x 1762 (14mm spine)
3224 (1523+178+1523) x 1762 (15mm spine - VIVA ELITE 5 DISC CASE)
