Doing a lot of box art work on my collection. I have spliced up a great 600ft reel of Derann trailers, and a 'Look at Life' featurette is at the end. This makes a very nice show starting reel for any program. I have dressed up the box with some good looking box art:

Excellent job! I am all about box art. A film with great box art seems to look better when projected. [Big Grin]

I know Pat, it seems ridiculous, but a film with good box art DOES look better on the screen! Not only that though, good box art makes a super 8 collection much more appealing, and is a great way to showcase super 8 to friends.
We spend hundred's of dollars on films. They all deserve a good box.

Thanks Kevin. As you can see, creating film box art can become an addiction by itself! [Big Grin]
