    Could you post svg or the photoshop files, too? I'd like to use them, once the beta's out, but I whish to print the covers in german for my friends. I'll send you the translated files, too if you want to start a multilanguage cover thread.

    Thank you, but I have one in Higher resolution, anyway I wanted to make it white just as seen at CES 2012 :D

    Thank you so much Canouna, now all we need is the actual BUILD leak or public release, and the full build tag hehehe :D

    OK... now that's a great ideea :) I will edit the first post on this topic, make it more easy to read and I will post more versions + translations to them, just translate the text as you see on the cover, and put it in Notepad, then send the file through a PM here on MDL :D after the Beta is out and I finish everything on the cover.

    that's really good news, by the way, if you want and if you have the time and can, please translate the cover to French so I can release a French version too :D

    @Misaki2010: Very well done brother!
    By the way, its 'One Microsoft Way' NOT 'One Way' :) And write either 'This build is just for testing purposes!' or 'This build is for testing purposes only!' ('just' and 'only' cannot be used in the same sentence)

    I really like that you used green as the background for the foreground Windows 8 Beta text. Can you please also use a yellow tile on the right, so that there can be all the 4 Windows colors?

    There should be a line gap after 'Minimum system requirements'.

    The line 'For Further informations please visit.....' could be put a bit higher so that it stays in that grey tile region(it will look good then). And by the way, correct 'informations' to 'information'(information is itself a plural). Also, there will be a comma after 'information'.

    You should also drop the word 'information' after 'Important'(in 'Important information').

    And lastly, sorry for being a strict grammar teacher :D

    Thank you for everything secretromeo, I fixed One Microsoft Way, and everything else except the "Important Information" stuff... I asked a few more persons and they said it's better this way... About the colors of the tiles, I thought about them too, I knew we needed some yellow, but I wasn't sure where to put it so I decided to do it on the right side of red tile, as you suggested. you'll see more after I release the final product... there are more changes to come to it which you will see hopefully soon...

    Thank you BAV0, It looks like ultrawindows and matej did a great job. I will fix that word as soon as possible (but I probably won't update the preview image because I plan on releasing the covers in the next few days :D All I need now is the translation for the DVD disk, but I have to contact the translators :D

    Get rid of the DVD logos and bar code. It just screams home made DVD cover and looks tacky.
    For example they do not exist on the Windows 7 packaging (bar code is on the plastic wrapping).
