New Template: Slim DVD Case

New Template for a Slim DVD Case.

I’m taking some time to update and beef up the Templates section of the Jeffco Website. Though the section is quite popular, it hasn’t received much attention in a while and lots of the templates, while still good, could be better, so stick around and check back as I add new and updated files which you can use to make your own CD and DVD cases, booklets, envelopes and whatever. Let me save you the trouble of measuring everything out, because once you’ve done them once, they don’t often change.

First up though, and a new addition, is the slim DVD case. It’s provided in three different formats:InDesign CS5 (INDD), JPG, and PDF. Hopefully one of these formats will suit your needs.

Be sure to check out all of the templates that are already online on the Templates page of the Jeffco site.

An example of the railroad track brush in Illustrator.

I needed a brush for drawing railway tracks in Illustrator and couldn’t find one, so I had to create one. Download this brush to draw railway tracks in Illustrator. You never know, you might have a use for it…
