Assorted Sci-Fi DVD Covers
Updated July 15, 2010
I’ve been collecting various sci-fi DVDs for years. But sadly, it’s kind of hard to find good cover images for all of them—especially for television shows. Although Google and Amazon provide good resources to track the images down, they’re unfortunately of rather low quality. (I considered myself lucky to find 500-pixel images!) The Apple TV where I watch all my shows prefers a 600×600 image. But rather than put the lower-quality covers out there, I decided to finally knuckle down and scan all the covers that I could. After all, graininess does show through more on a HD televisions screen. (Yes, I finally broke down and got a high-def screen.)
These images are all 600 pixels high (usually 427 pixels wide, proportional to the packaging). I chose to save them as JPEGs so that they would copy quickly over the wireless connection to my Apple TV. (I tried using high-quality TIFFs, but I found that there was a lag of several seconds, even on my 802.11n network.) So I figured that I might as well make them available for download.
Webmaster’s Note: Please don’t send me any requests for more covers! I can’t scan a DVD that I don’t have...
