There are a LOT of talented artists out there in Stargate Atlantis fandom, so now's your change to design a DVD cover!

MGM Home Entertainment is giving fans a chance to design the cover art for an upcoming “Stargate Atlantis” best-of compilation to be released on Blu-ray Disc.

Through Feb. 28, fans can visit www.StargateHub.com to upload their own art or work with provided templates. The top designs will be selected by the “Stargate Atlantis” producers, with the winner announced in April and showcased on the Blu-ray release this summer.

The top 10 episodes as chosen by the fans are
1. “Enemy at the Gate” (Episode 100, Season 5 — Series Finale)
2. “Rising” (Episode 1, Season 1 — Pilot)
3. “The Siege” (Episodes 19-21, Seasons 1-2)
4. “Tao of Rodney” (Episode 54, Season 3)
5. “Be All My Sins Remember’d” (Episode 71, Season 4)
6. “The Shrine” (Episode 86, Season 5)
7. “McKay and Mrs. Miller” (Episode 48, Season 3)

9. “Midway” (Episode 77, Season 4)
10. “First Strike” (Episode 60, Season 3)

So, no more hideously photoshopped covers (fans have done a much better job with photoshop). Get cracking!

I posted it on GW. DOn't know how long the thread will remain as one fan is already griping.

What are they griping about?

It's not a bad list. I like all those eppys, would have liked to have seen "The Eye/Storm" and "Common Ground"

Seems pretty action heavy which is Blue Ray is good for. Though "Vegas" will look stuning as will "Rising" And I'm glad we get all three parts of the “The Siege”.

Of course TPTB will pick the worst submission I bet, but anything is better than what they've been using of late.

Sent ya a PM.

yeah, alas, the folks who design the covers don't seem to have much artistic talent ;)

I snuck over and saw who it is and I'm not surprised.

You should have replied back "I disagree" and left it at that. :)

Was tempted, but instead explained in very simple terms the difference between voting and designing ;)

You created a seperate thread or in an established one? I was going to promote in John and Teyla ship and the galleria threads. Are you familiar with them?

Separate. Ah, still there. Under News, "MGM recruits fans to design dvd cover". Yup, have seen those threads :)
