Plisskin, what is the font you're using for the date and Criterion Collection tabs along the side?

This one took me a minute. Very nice. It was either that or a portrait of John Cabot. Since I'm so classy, I opted against Cabot. Mitchell, I was having a lot of trouble matching that font, and I finally found this template, which is which has the "CRITERION COLLECTION" as an image, rather than text. www.vgboxart.com/resource/236/criterion.collection/?replies=10For the date, I used this site for help, and settled on OCR B MT, at size 10 with a -2 letter spacing. I don't think it's exact, but with free fonts, it was as close as I could get. I also decided to slightly shrink the text box, just because I think it's way too big on the real Criterion covers. |

The "Mitchell" cover is some kind of nice.
It also took me a beat before getting "Outlaw". Nicely done, as usual.

Interesting. What the Font recommended a different one for me, which I found as freeware on DaFont. So you're just using the box and OCR for the date, right? I'm assuming adjusting the colors through a colorized adjustment layer? |

Yea, I have a template with the box and "C" as a separate layer, colored white, with 100% opacity. That allows me to easily change the color, and make it a little see through if need be.  |

Okay, I stare at this ... and I stare at this ... and I stare at this ... oh, God, do I stare at this ... but I can't figure out the connection. Maybe it's been a while since I've watched Atomic Brain, but I just can't figure out the joke. So, this one just goes over my head.
Maybe I should stare at it some more.

In the Atomic Brain, the old woman is obsessed with young, beautiful girls, and wishes to become one. People always make jokes about Top Gun being homoerotic, but this has it beat by a mile.

"Making love to an 80 year old woman in the body of 18 year old girl." Nuff said.
