What are the best dimensions for cover art? What about specific sections, such as spine, front cover and back? Thanks! :)

I am going to make a cover art to house all 7 HP extended editions by ADM (yes, only 5 are done, but it is inevitable ;) ) What case sizes are out there for 7 discs, and what dimensions should I make the cover art for whatever case you recommend?

I dont think I want the standard 14mm for this. it seems like cramming a lot of discs in there, and I dont mind a little bit of a wider case for this many discs. it makes it more noticeable on the shelf :)

all of the ones I am finding online, say 1" thick cases, which would be 25.4mm. anyone confirm these cases?

yeah, the first one, is a single 7-disc case that they say is 1 inch or 27mm. but 1 inch does not equal 27mm. dumbos.

the other links are for 25 7-disc cases. They just mention 1 inch (which would be 25.4mm, not 27mm).

although I am sure 1.6mm really isnt going to make a difference. i just wanted to get the overall dimensions correct before I start the cover. :)

No, however Fox does release 7-disc versions of 24 in the 14MM-spine 6-disc case by providing the 7th disc in a paper sleeve. So yes, you can fit 7 discs in a 6-disc case provided you don't mind having the 7th in a paper sleeve.
