On the inside of the digipak I wanted to put something to symbolise that this was the nemesis of the digipak since these pages are the added ones. I thought some stage curtains might look quite nice and give an old fashioned sense of showmanship. However, I realised that I had to use my own images so I couldn't just get my curtains off of Google Images. In unoptimistic hope I thought you might be able to make curtains from scratch on Photoshop and well, it seems you can! I followed the instructions from the video in the top link to create the curtains and help in the creation of the text (though I'm now quite proficient in this anyways). I then wanted to make the curtains more curtain-y by putting those folded bits at the top (you know what I mean if you look at the picture). To do this I selected each half of the curtain and put them into separate Photoshop documents. I then used the knowledge I had learnt from the second link to transform them into shape. I had originally looked at the second link to see how to create curtains, but the effect in the top link was a lot better.
