And besides, it's not aloud to troll here!!

Boy, boy, crazy boy, keep cool boy!

Nor is it ALLOWED to troll here. Thankfully, Margos was doing neither.

...it would be untrue if I said that was something that hadn't crossed my mind when I was making it.

Ok, I got bored this morning. Plenty of free space to add your own text.

Nice cover

Yeah, but where's Gromit?

Oops, almost forgot . . .



Gromit approves.

Pretty sure this is the US cover for princess and the frog.

We know. These are just for kicks.

My Only complaints are lack of Mama Odie on the cover and Facilier doesn't look near enough like a Villain

We know. These are just for kicks.

Oh na thats not what I meant. These mock covers are pretty funny Was just unsure whether the US version had been posted and wasn't entirely sure whether it was real and not fan made. Sorry if I sounded rude or condescending or anything Wasn't intended aha

You didn't come across that way, I was just not sure if you knew whether we knew that or not, LOL!

Now THERE'S a cover to be proud of.

OMG, Why do I bother putting food in my mouth when I'm about to read your posts? Really, it's not a good idea on my part.

I agree- I think it's super-cute.

Um, even more amazing!

Ohmigosh, I love that! I know you used the Frog Naveen and Frog Tiana promotion picture with white background. But how did you manage to get the outer edges of them to retain their smoothness instead of being jagged? I know from experience if I editted that same promotion picture to transfer Frog Naveen and Frog Tiana to a dark blue background, they'd have ugly jagged outlines.

A little bit of advice: Save your artworks as png files instead of jpeg files. They'd look their most crisp.

Love It!!!!!! Only critique is that the characters on the bottom corners are barely visible.

Oh, and what's a good Disney movie without Gromit?

Clearly I had too much time on my hands that day.

Thanks! And actually, I used to post all my work as PNG's since you don't really have to worry about artifacts with those, but I slowed down with that a while back when I got so many complaints from people either not being able to save them or even see them due to their browser settings. I don't worry about what I post so much anymore since I keep a copy of the PSD file in case I ever need to pull up a higher-res version for whatever reason. But since you guys might be interested, I'll link the full-sized, high quality versions of the following mock-ups without the text and small logos (still has the movie logo though of course). Sorry, no spines or back covers for either, didn't really have time to do much more beyond this (although anyone that might like to try finishing them off is more than welcome to).

You'll be able to see some of the artifacts/mistakes/choppiness at this size, but should still look good if you'd like to try printing any.

Oh, and about the white jagged edges, it really helps to find the largest dimensions possible. The bigger the pic, the more likely that the magic wand tool will take out all the background and reduce the jagged appearance. It can also help to mess with the tolerance setting of the wand tool. And what doesn't get removed I clean up with the eraser tool, although sometimes I have to go back in with a brush and re-ink or color in faded edges.

Thanks, and yeah . . . I wanted the bottom portion of the image to feel mysterious and fade out, almost like a texture in order to keep the main focus on the frogs . . . but I debated quite a bit on how much I wanted to blend it away. The initial version just had their legs under the logo!

Oh yeah, and you've gotta watch out for that Gromit, he's gotten awfully sneaky lately.

A friend of mine made this cover:

A lot of these covers are actually better than the real one. They should let you guys do the artwork. Nice job!

Nice work!
