I just opened the site in Internet Explorer and realized how incredibly bad it looks... for some reason, the sliders are visible in IE, where as they are not visible on Firefox when it is a full window, at 1024x768 or higher. just letting you guys know.

Superb SncDthMnky!!!!

Now can you redue 1-359 in 1600x1800? Just got my new oddscreen plasma to display these babies in a whole new resolution. :lol:

Sure can't. I've got ton of schoolwork, work work, and other site stuff to work on for now.

I'm sure you could stretch or crop them to look good.

Hi. Fun stuff here. The past year, I alternate between using M and a photo of my cat as my wallpaper.

I have a small request. Is it possible to put the Criterion Dungeon link either in the first post or easy to find on the first page (either by editing the first post or another early 1st page post, or perhaps by adding in a new first post)?

The reason I ask is that I just had to search thru to the 2nd page and then followed two dead links to get to the correct site. Just trying to make it easier for people to get to the wallpapers and check out all your fine work.

Thanx,

Lemmy C.

PS This is probably the best and most fun way to view the Criterion lineup. A number of things I didn't realize had been issued by Criterion, such as the pair of Olmi's. Kudos.

Could a mod just rename the thread to "criteriondungeon.com" something or other?

SonicDeathMonkey, why did you delete the soon.html page, it was an easy place to check to see if the new covers were up.

Ok, major props to Hammock on this one. Hopefully you guys like this. Here is a pdf of the first of 3 Janus catalogues Hammock is scanning for us. This will go on the website in the next update, but I thought I'd give you guys first crack at it. enjoy.

Janus Films: The French Collection.

Guess no one cared for this one so let's shelve the last two books!
We just got the high resolution scans for Beales, Grey Gardens and Symbiopsychotaxiplasm. Will be dong wp's in a couple of days! Thanks again to our "supplier"!

au contraire... I just found the link and think it's a great read (what I've read so far). I'd love to see the other two books at some point.

I think people associate this thread with "more wallpapers done guys!" and tend to skip over it.

Yes, please scan the remaining catalogs. I don't normally read this thread, so I totally missed it. I quoted your original message announcing the catalog in the Janus Films thread.

Can I request that you either scan at a higher resolution, though, or scan at a higher resolution and then lower the resolution in PhotoShop or whatever you're using (don't just scan at screen resolution)? The text in the first few pages is jaggy and a bit hard to read.

It's probably going to take Hammock a while, but these comments should encourage him to continue.

Yeah, I'd like to see the other books scanned as well. I truly appreciated the first book. Thanks.

I know this has been frowned upon cause of Guney's overuse of youtube links, but I thought you guys might want to watch my progress as I try to upload the trailer for every film in the collection.

Christ, no...please...do the other ones when you can. That first catalog is a great catch. Kudos, my friend.

Trailers look wicked - great job and glad I was wrong regarding the Janus catalogues. Will be doing the two others as well, but they take forever to do, so please be patient!

Cheers!
