    DVD case insert templates

    Hello again,

    Just bought a few 'six per case' DVD boxes - they were only 50p each and are v handy.
    The cases are thicker than a standard 1 or 2 disc case (about the thickness of a VHS) so I'm having trouble designing inserts for them.
    I've got Mediaface 4 and Nero 6's cover designer but cant work out how to create a template which is wider to allow for the extra thickness of the bigger box.
    Is it possible to create new templates for either application?
    If not, as the desired shape is a simple rectangle, how can I use other app's to print a picture of set size (x by y mm) - I've got Photoshop 7 and of course paint (I'm hopeless with Photoshop).

    TIA

    To change your Image size in Photoshop is very simple.

    From the "Image" drop down menu select "Image Size". Amend the Document Size properties and bingo.... job done

      Thanks Mig$y,

      I've muddled through Photoshop and resized the image ok.
      I know Photoshop is a great tool, industry leader etc, etc ... but I can't get on with it. It just isn't intuitive unless you use it day-in day-out. Having said that, it has done the job so thanks again.

      Does anyone know if it is possible to create/modify templates for Mediaface or Nero? It is something that has bugged me for a while and would be very useful.

        U should try coverXP (www.coverxp.com)

        It has a vast number of pre made covers/labels for VHS,DVD,MINIDISC ect & a feature that allows you to put in your own specs and print covers.

        I use it for all covers as I too do not like photoshop or Nero for that matter

        Hope this helps
