Windows Vista Beta & RC DVD Cover Art

Post by Marcus »

I am looking for the cover art for Windows Vista Beta, Beta 2, and RC1. I searched this forum, but found no traces to such content. A quick search on Google Images did me no justice as well. Thanks in advance.

I really don't like making a new topic... would have much rather found an older one with what I am looking for.

I have Vista Beta 2 and RC1 that I can get you scans for. The color will be somewhat light as my scanner is a bit on the cheap side, but it should do well enough if you want to reproduce the cover art yourself.
Goodbye.

I don't believe Beta 1 had a formal cover since it was a developers/tech beta only release and not part of the CPP program.

Here's the cover art scans for Vista Beta 2 and RC1. I scanned both the front and the back of the cover slip and also the product key card because I'm feeling nice today. These aren't perfect scans, but they're good enough to use as references if you plan on recreating them in a photo editor.

Those will work beautifully. I'll stick a dummy key in there when I edit them. Thank you very much, lock now?
