Wait my local store has like, 6 copies of "2" they got in a few weeks ago, anyone need one?

 

me! as long as the price is decent compared to Captured Tracks haha

bump. I'd really like the Coheed Amory edition CD set!

added a ton of stuff. Check it out

It won't matter if you save as JPEG or TIFF since you don't have the original. Open a photoshop file and set it to 150dpi at 12" x 12", from there you can see how many pixels you need to get a crisp image. 150 is fine for a digital print from a place like Kinko's or similar.

Most places like Kinko's will print on a 12 x 18 sheet but the printer won't print full bleed so you're looking at 11.5" of art per sheet. You may find that printing oversize (larger than 12x18) increases price. No idea about the legalities.

 

Thanks man! that definitely helped. I've just finished working on the covers and I think they look alright now. I'll call up Kinkos anyways to see what my options are, if not I'll just get them done through that other printing place.

 

 

You could always get one of the digital photo displays/frames, and set that up to display the album your playing.

 

I was thinking this too, but right now I'd like to start small and do it for a few albums only. I can't justify the prices just yet, but I may later on down the road. 

I'll try and make this as short as possible

 

Some of my all time favorite albums don't sound so great on vinyl unfortunately. I've decided it would be more sensible to sell them off and use the money to expand my library and opt for better, mostly cheaper alternatives like CDs, SACDs, blu ray audio and all that good stuff. With that said, I would like to retain some of the experience that comes with listening to vinyl. I recently had the idea to get some photo prints done so I can have them on display when listening to the albums. 

 

I've recently downloaded some high quality JPGs to use for the prints. They're each around 1200 x 1200, which I figured seemed like a decent size for what I'm looking to get. However upon browsing through articles and forums I read that 1200 x 1200 is pretty much the bare minimum for 12 x 12 prints, and that in most cases the quality will be shoddy at best. I'm currently trying to teach myself a bit of photoshop ( I know absolutely nothing about this kind of stuff) to see if I can improve these images, but I had some questions:

 

• I noticed that those discussions about 1200 x 1200 being low quality mostly referred to photographs taken from cameras. However, since this is an album cover that was probably produced differently, does it really make that much of a difference?
• Will it make any real difference whether I keep it in JPEG format or convert it to something like TIFF? again, I'm not quite sure if the same rules apply to here as they do to photographs (probably a dumb question). 

and lastly

• Has anyone else undertaken a similar project before? how'd it turn out? The local Kinkos and Office Depot either won't or don't do copyrighted images in the sizes I need. the best alternative I've managed to find to far is Persnickety Prints. For 1.99 a print, I figured it's worth the risk, but if anyone knows of any other places that a bit more tailored to this sort of thing, that'd be cool.

 

Thanks!

up. added new item and a few more wants

It was a compliment actually! So you GTFO!

bump. Shaun of The Dead sold

Got Post in today from OLI. two corners and badly bent/crushed and the entire package is warped. The thing looks more like a bowl or plate than a record =/ 

So I recently ordered a batch of MoFi sleeves and am currently in the process of cleaning my records and replacing the old paper sleeves with these new ones. I had a really really dirty goodwill record that I just accidentally threw into a MoFi sleeve before cleaning it and now there's a good amount of dust and debris in there. So, is there any proper method to clean a plastic inner sleeve? is that even a thing people do? I'm not really torn up about possibly having to throw one away, but now I'm curious if there's a way to clean these sleeves like we do with records, jackets, etc. I was thinking a simple Kleenex wet wipe, but I'm not sure if that'd affect the LP. 

FYE, but I took that picture from a scalper's listing on eBay.

 

photo style looks familiar 

 

is that from Takeheart AKA Revealed Records AKA BobLoblaw? 

I'm an idiot. But in my defense after seeing that most of the replies were just puns I scrolled all the way down to CVHX's post. Can't believe I didn't see that tho

Language is a nebulous concept, fuck your freshman-year sociology PC bullshit.

 

I wonder if the LCW exclusives for Hastings and FYE will be the same just like Title Fight was

Interested in NWFT. I've got some soundtracks for sale/trade in my thread. Link is in my sig

Replacement split that should've shipped with the slipmat came in today and it was the regular variant. Meh ... I don't really like to complain and I'm glad to have a copy at least (shipping was prompt too) but I would've liked some prior warning beforehand. I thought there might have been some leftover/extra sub variants for mistakes like this. Giving it a spin and now and it's pretty good though

lowered prices on some things. Bump

Yall are seriously so fucking lame. Everyone on this thread. Believe it or not. There is life beyond déjà repress. I've been traveling south America for the past month seeing glaciers. And some of the most amazing sites on earth, just got internet for the first time and got an email from src and quikly checked here and felt super uncomfortable. You guys are all fucking losers. Good luck with your adventures.

 

Joke's on you. I ordered this on an old 90's palm pilot that I scavenged while rappelling down the himalayas after rescuing a group of stranded climbers and their injured sherpa. Stay pleb, loser. 

i know this isnt someone actually saying this but its still hilarious

 

the urban outfitters variant seems fairly priced

 

the bonus tracks make it worth it too

I'm having a hard time wading through the bullshit and sarcasm

 

while you're wasting your time doing that the rest of us are stocking up on our sweet sunburst and splatter variants
