@InvaderP:

Never use Comic Sans MS ever again.

Why? It looks good when it's printed. I know a lot of people doesn't like it but in my opinion, it fits One Piece spirit well. I'm open to suggestion if you have some.

And why does the running time say 20 minutes?

It's the running time per episode. Maybe it's better if the running time is for the entire DVD (480 min).

Maybe you should switch the Luffy on the spine with an earlier artwork, instead of an Enies Lobby one?

Congratulation for noticing that but I will keep it. The reason is the size of this picture fits exactly the spine. The quality would be always better than if I have to rescale an other picture.
Unfotunately there are not many hq pictures of One Piece, so this will happen again.

Also, Morgan was a captain not a colonel.

It's a french translation mistake. Morgan is a colonel not a captain in France. I'll fix it.

Why would you have to put the KF logo there, anyway?

I like the quality of their work. Morover, I don't think you will have the same number of episodes per DVD if you use an other fansub.

@Skadi:

BTW, talking about DVD covers, i can´t find one anywhere. The one that has Perona and Absalom. Does anyone have it?

I'm also looking for Thriller Bark DVD covers. I just have Luffy, Usopp and Robin at the moment. In fact I'm looking for the covers after the season 09 volume 07 (Enies Lobby), if someone knows a website with some good scan, it will be a great help.

These covers are for those who create their own DVD release of a fansub. So the number of episodes will be different from an official DVD.

Another issue is the box cover depicting Sanji and Nami wearing the Log Pose

You're very observant. I didn't pay attention to the log Pose. I know it's a spoiler but I wanted a picture with all the crew and unfortunately it's the only one available. I don't think it's a very important spoiler.
I have all the covers selected for the first fifteen DVD and as I have to edit the image to enhance the quality and to erase a lot of things (One Piece logo, Japanese writing and DVD number) I don’t think I'll change it.

@Kaiolino:

Would be perfect if you do away with the K-F logo.

This is a version without the K-F logo:

Honestly, I prefer the cover with the logo. It's a matter of taste but it seems quite empty whithout it. Which one do you prefer?

I don’t know if it’s the good place for this thread because it’s not really an art.

I decided recently to make my own DVD covers. Don’t expect professional quality, I’m a beginner and it’s take a lot of time to do particularly if you consider the number of DVD One Piece will have.

DVD 01: The first part of East Blue Saga (with Morgan, Buggy, Kuro and the beginning of the Baratie Arc), featuring Luffy on the Spine and the back

http://img573.imageshack.us/img573/6006/dvd01p.jpg

I’m using a mix between the Funimation DVD covers (for the background and the logo) and the Japanese DVD covers (for the front and the back pictures). The episodes photos are from One Piece Wikia. The characters renders on the back and the spine are from renders-graphiques.fr and One Piece Wikia.

If you like it I will upload some more, as well as covers for the movies, special episodes and OVA.

To print a DVD cover, I recommend using a specialized software. This will ensure that the print size will be the same as your DVD case (I use UndercoverXP, it’s free).

There are a lot of differences between the anime and the manga.

Strangely, Nami is the first character appearing in the anime. It's Luffy in the manga.

If I remember correctly we don’t know how Luffy got his scar under his eye in the anime. It’s probably because of censorship.

In the anime, Usopp is part of the crew when Luffy meets Gaimon but not in the manga.

In the anime we have the story of Baggy and the story of Kobby but it was just a cover story in the manga.

Ace is with the crew when they are travelling in the desert of Arabasta but not in the manga.

There are two Davy Back Fight in the anime but only one in the manga.

Ao Kiji doesn’t appear after the Davy Back Fight, as a result it’s not him who helps Tonjit. He appears in a filler arc when he helps some shipwrecked people.

There are a lot of (unfortunately bad) fillers. The G-8 arc is by far the best. The vice-admiral of the G-8 base makes an appearance during the Marineford arc. The commander Drake and the G-8 base appear in the fourth movie. Even if you don’t like the anime,this arc really deserves a shot.

@MissMary:

Bienvenue! :D Maintenant je peut demander l'opinion de quelqu'un d'autre a propos de ca - est-ce que tu trouves les attaques de Sanji drole? lol "POITRINE SHOOOT!!!!" lol (désolée, ma francais sucks récemment)

I love it. With the Japanese pronunciation it’s very cute, particularly for Robin and Franky who also have attacks in French. I like the way Robin says Fleur (flower) :wub: but my personal favorite is Diable Jambe (devil’s leg), so epic, so powerful, so Sanji.

Always cool to heard one of the main characters speaking your own language.

@ashcrow:

hi, does anyone have a picture of the 2yrs reunion…but without the watermark and wordings at the bottom part? the "one piece" logo is fine though...

http://img696.imageshack.us/img696/6108/onepiececreditlessbyone.jpg

I've this picture, it's not my work and unfortunately I don't remember where I took it.

I'm looking desperately for hi-res pictures of Nami, Vivi and Sanji with no background and ideally with the whole body.

Thank you!

Thanks for the welcome and the information. I'll check right away.

@SGRaaize:

Pay no attention to the sharks close by.

I guess that Arlong has to make sure this forum deserve his name.

Hi OP fans from all around the world,

I’m new member but a long time follower of AP forums :ninja:, and yes I'm French.

I’ve been reading One Piece since its very first release in France back in September 2000. It’s amazing to think that it’s been already ten years.

I recently decided to create some custom DVD covers so I will ask you for some (a lot of) pictures. I hope you will be able to help me.

Nice to meet you all and sorry for all my current and future English mistakes.
