DJ, you've out-done yourself with this; I've been lurking for a while & using your covers to reupholster my Repro collection; but my hearty thanks for this - all your covers are spot on. As this is the appreciation thread, my appreciation - you have a knack for capturing the 90's charm & the essence of the game with your covers.

Keep it up.

[djshok]

Thanks man! I always aim to give that 90's feeling to these covers. And I'm glad to hear that you're using them to refurbish your repro collection - that's really the reason why I started making these in the first place. So many repros, especially older ones came with terrible or no artwork. It's always rewarding to see these covers being put to good use.

wow, great work.
i made my cover about a year ago

[WiiPimp]

I have been reading this thread for a few hours now and I got to say that this is one epic thread. I love the covers I have seen here and I had to sign up just to say Holy Sh!t!!
I used these covers on my Wii so I have full covers for my emulated games and I must say that the covers here actually look better then most official ones I come across. I just wanted to say thank you guys for everything and keep up the hard work.

How would I go about making a cart label of MUSHA? I want to put one on my donor cart I'm using for the Mega Everdrive

Hey! Welcome to Sega-16. I've never heard of people using these covers on a wii before, that's really cool. I never even thought of that, though I don' t have a wii, so I'm not really "in the know" Glad to hear that you're enjoying the covers! If you haven't already, check out the other cover threads, there's one for 32x games (all the cartridge games are done now):

http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthr...ble-32X-covers!

There's also a thread where I'm working on making printable covers for all the games that came in cardboard boxes: http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthr...rd-boxed-games

And another one where I just made some comic book based covers for some of the super hero games: http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthr...ro-game-covers!

And be sure to check out TheCoop's thread since he also does similar work: http://www.sega-16.com/forum/showthr...request-thread

Enjoy your stay here

Well, first you'd need a good scan of the cover/artwork. Then you'd need a label template (you can find them in my box account here: https://www.box.com/shared/i04byqm6mz ) Then you open the 2 things in Photoshop (or other image editing software of your choice), put 'em together in a fashion that is pleasing to you and you're done. The difficulty of this will vary depending on how experienced you are at working with image editing software.

[Solkia]

I don't have Photoshop or any knowledge of it.

[WiiPimp]

Thanks djshok, I'll be sure to check out the other threads as well.
And If I can, I will post a snapshot or 2 to show you what I'm using your covers for cuz it's got to be one of the coolest things in gaming and shouldn't be over looked.

[djshok]

Sweet, I'd love to see that.

[Solkia]

would GIMP work?

[goldenband]

I use GIMPShop for all my image editing needs. It's basically GIMP with a Photoshop-ish interface.
