I'm new to this forum, so I apologize if this has been asked before, or if I'm in the wrong place. I'm trying to transfer all of my DVDs into slim cases to save shelf space.

Standard DVD cases are 1/2" thick and 5 3/8" wide.
Slim DVD cases are 1/4" thick, but still 5 3/8" wide.

To fit a standard sleeve insert into a slim case, I usually just fold or trim the edges, but this doesn't always work. If the text or artwork goes all the way to the edges, or if the title on the spine is printed in large letters, I have to scan the sleeve, alter it with photoshop, then print a new one custom sized for a slim case.

It occurred to me that I wouldn't have to go to so much trouble if I could find slim cases that were 1/8" wider across the front (1/8" front AND back = 1/4" total).

The ideal slim case would be 1/4" thick, and 5 1/2" wide. Slightly wider than that would be OK, as long as they're still slim. Has anyone ever seen DVD cases like this, and if so where can I get them?
