Doctor Who: Lost in Time DVD covers

Fairly self-explanatory, I think. Thoughts? Comments? Ruminations? They took a long time to make, but for once they came out looking very much as I imagined them. I'm quite pleased.

Very nice! About my only real complaint is that the font you've used for the main text looks a bit over-formal compared to the font(s?) used elsewhere. I've always prefered sans-serif fonts. The one you've used for the Special Features list would be nice if it has a lower case. But yeah, that aside, good stuff. Remind me, have you got your covers online anywhere?

Couple of quick questions: is that part of the disc menu screen that you've used in the background to the covers? And what's on the spine above Hartnell's/Troughton's heads? Looks like a "?".

Best,

David.

I don't have my covers online anywhere, except as preview-sized versions. I need webspace! Aaagh!

Um...I'm not sure which part you mean, but no. The pics of the Doctors/monsters/etc are all screen captures (even the TARDIS is from "The Empty Child"!), but there's nothing from the disc menus.

:::chuckles::: That's my own sense of humor at work. Usually I put the story number there - i.e. 50 for The War Games, 100 for Stones of Blood, etc. Since both Lost in Times cover multiple stories I just put a big ? on both of them. ;)

And amusingly...the font for the special features _is_ the same as the one on the front. Just smaller - maybe 10 pt as opposed to 24 pt. But I'm afraid it's something of a moot point now - I've made about ten covers like this which I have no intention of changing, so the fonts I've got are the fonts that are staying...

Can't see them! Could you email them to my gmail? I'll still comment on here. Hopefully...

Good use of color, well laid out, easliy readable without being boring. Graphically they are quite handsome.
