Printable VHS covers? It's like vhs dosn't exist anymore. No stores carry Printable VHS covers anymore, just dvd. Yet the film festival I'm submitting to only takes VHS. Help! I was hoping not to have to oder them online so does anyone know of a store that might carry them? I've tried Office max and comp usa and such.

Most festivals require a VHS screener. I don't think that requires all the fancy artwork of a nice printed, professional label (although a press kit is good). I've been submitting a short to festivals with a DVD-R with a sharpe label and vhs tapes with the regular lebels writen with a sharpe.

Although, if I really wanted VHS labels, I'd do a google search for a template.

Try Kinkos and have them make you some. If not buy some sticker paper and just cut some out yourself. Think man, think!!!

You can still buy the bigger plastic VHS boxes that allow for paper inserts. Then you just print up a one sheet on your computer using say photoshop and your set.

I found printable vhs labels at Staples. They even included a program that lets you format the stickers for different looks/colors/whatever.

Hehehe he said try Kinko's and then accused me of not thinking, that's funny. Kinko's blows dude.

Anyway I just went with Tizzy's advice using an old Blockbuster case,(apparently you own them if they are 3 years late) Came out pretty good although the staples option looks good for the tape itself. I still have three days to nail it down before the deadline.
