- TheBigBrother, on 11/05/2007, -1/+39reminds me of:

- vsujohn2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+23So now I can finally sell my dick in a box....... with a legitimate looking box
- Quag, on 10/12/2007, -6/+22More like attempt to sell copies of Open Office on eBay. Perfectly fine to do of course, but the box images are hilarious to me.
- pumacub, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15The box looks like crap. Find a better tutorial.
- wingnut21, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Oh good, now ***** software can appear professional! The tutorial forgot to recommend to place box images on link squatted sites for maximum effectiveness.
- spargett, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Nice tutorial... obvious stuff if you think about it. Here's my stab at it:
http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c137/spargett1/mockbox.jpg - Dhalgren, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Looks good, but the proportions don't look right. Your small side needs to be smaller and angled more.
- twofivethreetwo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Yes it is old, but that doesn't mean somebody won't find it useful and i'm sure plenty of people haven't seen it before.
- kz26, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Hey! Let's make an Ubuntu box!!!
- dokbeast7, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3I'm going to sell an advance copy of Duke Nukem forever!
- rauz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I prefer this one from Lynda.com, only works with Photoshop CS3 and it's actually a dvd box, not a software box, but you can apply the same technique.

- wolphcry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I can now sell my "new" iPhone still in the box on eBay

- noahhoward, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Two suggestions to improve the results of ths tutorial.
1. If you are going to wrap your design around the side don't lay the design out with the gap that they show there, if you lay them out with the edges together then you won't get the noticeable skip on thecorner.
2. Shading will improve the overall appearance. Nothing heavy but just enough to indicate the light difference on the sides. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Video has to be one of the worst ways to deliver this type of content. I love Lynda's work, but a qt movie?! baaaad usability.
- iDiggIt42, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great! Now I can make boxes for my versions of Linux, OpenOffice, and other FOSS on eBay!
- uberneoconcert, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i wish i could see it, but i dont know why the heck i can't download apple quicktime on my firefox.
- rauz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Maybe this link will work better, try "Save Link As..." and then open it up in Quicktime Player, VLC, GOM or whatever.

EDIT: Nope, doesn't seem to work - has to be watched in the browser it seems - sry. - spargett, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yeah, I agree... I messed that part up. Better stab next time.
- PRlME, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1omg 1795 people digged this bs. thats 1795 people who dont know basic photoshop. add this to the 1 million how to make web2.0 logos.
- DannySpace, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1LOL! - "that is all"
- mydave, on 07/28/2008, -0/+0old, but interesting!

http://www.trgovinca.org - wedges, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1wow. someone needs to teach this guy some basic principles of GOOD design.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1How did this thing got more than 1000 digg??? It SUCKS! the box has no perspective and when you design box art you DON'T do the same thing everywhere! I thought this "tutorial gives you tips or guidelines but it just tells you what to do step by step. the box must show at least the top part and the bottom! where is the shadow? what's the idea of the totally white area at the top and the bottom?
this tutorial stinks.. - Vironex, on 10/12/2007, -3/+3Sites down already, no mirror caught it. Seriously, if you pay $10/month for your hosting, duggmirror it!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Also, if your software is only delivered electronically, I imagine this would double the number of calls you get from customers wondering when their order is going to arrive in the mail.

cept the ebay part - yano, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Interesting, so now I can make images of the "imaginary" box for my imaginary software. Now what about the physical version of the said imaginary box?
