Title: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: shenske on October 11, 2007, 02:43:28 AM
The official PS1 cover thread
(& PS2 on the very rare occasion)


I will be using my PS1 template.   ;D
CHECK TEMPLATES PAGE FOR DOWNLOAD LINK
If you have not seen it before it is very in depth (virtually everything is a separtate layer and editable) and has a full greatest hits version.
Playstation Covers are not my highest priority (Dreamcast is) but you should see quite a few covers pump out in the next few days.

I actually have made covers for all of these games a year ago.  The covers i made were in Microsoft Paint (pain in the ass) and were low resolution in comparison.  I want to replace the ps1 covers i already had on the site with better high resolution ones made in photoshop this time around.

I've noticed people on the site like both the PS2 design and the Vertical Style PS1 design for their PSX covers.
Retail Pictures have surfaced of the rerelease of Metal Gear Solid using the vertical style by Sony/Konami.
Well i give in, my template now has both for your convenience
Both have complete Greatest Hits Versions aswell.

(i'm using the above, horizantal style as a default, upon request i can reformat it to the template below)

These are a little bit different.

Both games use Lumberjack42's dreamcast back scans
(i asked permission and he will be credited when i upload them)
He made some awesome covers and i am very greatful that i am allowed to use them.

Street Fighter Alpha 3

in response to Doom and PR Mega X:

umm... maybe, deffinately when i'm done with my list.

some cd covers are easy to convert to dvd, others can be a bitch  ;).

if you give me  a list of what you want (with raws too  :) ) i could get a better idea how easy it would be.


edit:
i'm concerned with how easy it is mostly because of time.  As the semester gets closer to the end my homework becomes more time consuming.  :(  I'm an art major and everything requires perfection, which is very time consuming.

When you post the template hopefully everyone will want to pitch in and add from their collection or from existing scans.

if you give me  a list of what you want (with raws too  :) ) i could get a better idea how easy it would be.

Here's a list of what I'm looking for. There might be one or two more, but I think this covers it:

Iron Man/X-O Manowar in Heavy Metal
Marvel Super Heroes
Mortal Kombat Mythologies
Mortal Kombat Trilogy
Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue
Power Rangers Time Force
Spider-Man
Spider-Man 2 Enter Electro
Time Crisis
X-Men: Children of the Atom

Raws are up for all except the last one, which already has a DVD case...but being anal, I'm trying to get them all in one style :P

That template is awesome!

I have just managed to get some Amaray cases same size as original Euro PS1/DC cases (1.6cm spine), so i'm replacing mine in those, but will definately be using some of your ideas.

Thanks!

moved from the request forum

I'm looking for a custom DVD case cover for my copy of Final Fantasy Tactics, and I'm not satisfied with the two already uploaded. They're too plain, and one of them has a lame and poorly edited joke screenshot on the back. I'd really appreciate it (and I think everyone else would too) if someone could make a Playstation 1 DVD cover using the new PSP Lion War cover art instead of a lame plain white cover:

does this work for you ike?

Mortal Kombat II

(http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/2553/mk2preiy9.jpg)
this isn't exactly a japanese cover, it needed to match all of the current Mortal Kombat covers i have made.
... so its a mix between American and Japanese.


tell me what you think  :)

EDIT:  i edited my last post previewing MK3 & MK4. 
I changed the preview picture of all of the MK covers together (i added MKII)

If you're buying them make sure you get the Kollector's Edition of Mortal Kombat Deception which has the arcade version of MK1 as bonus and the Premium Edition of Mortal Kombat Armageddon which has the arcade version of UMK3 as bonus. After that ask our friend Shenske politely if he could make a cutsom cover for UMK3 and you'll have the full set of all MK's released for PS1 and 2 ;)

do you know if wither of those came out as PAL versions?  just been searching and can't find any  >:(

now i know about them i want them - LOL
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread by Shenske
Post by: KaiserWAVE on February 26, 2008, 05:53:29 PM
Nope, unfortunately these bonuses are not in the PAL versions. If you want the bonus games you have to get the US versions fo these games. Mortal Kombat 2 & 3 are also on the Midway Arcade Treasures Vol.2, you won't get a better version of MK3. It's real good. The only way to get the arcade version of UMK3 in Europe is on the Xbox 360 as a download from the marketplace.

is the bonus disc a separate disc that you know of?

if so i'll snatch that one up for sure

... or is it on the same disc and Deception and/or Armageddon?
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread by Shenske
Post by: KaiserWAVE on February 27, 2008, 12:43:49 PM
The special editions of Deception and Armageddon each have a bonus disc. Mortal Kombat 1 is on Deception's bonus disc so I would suppose they put UMK3 on Armageddon's.

BIG TEMPLATE ANNOUNCEMENT
... or at least i think its big news.


I've noticed people on the site like both the PS2 design and the Vertical Style PS1 design for their PSX covers.

This design was started a about 6 months ago but the project seems to have died off.  
Retail Pictures have surfaced of the rerelease of Metal Gear Solid using the vertical style by Sony/Konami.

Well i give in, my template now has both for your convenience, not trying to steal any thunder.
Both have complete Greatest Hits Versions aswell.

here are some previews shots

Horizantal
(the style i have been using)
(themed after the PS2)

(http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/3315/1preic8.jpg)
(http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/1092/2prewl5.jpg)


Vertical
(newer style)
(themed after what sony is using on the rerelease of metal gear solid)

(http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/1315/3pream6.jpg)
(http://img80.imageshack.us/img80/3959/4prejf4.jpg)


I will still be using the Horizantal "PS2" becasue i like things to match and 98% of the covers on the site seem to use it too.
Upon request i can reformat the covers i have made to use the Vertical style Template.

i will make the template public in a few days  ;D

 ;D AS ALWAYS TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK  ;D
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread by Shenske
Post by: Brandon on March 22, 2008, 11:11:53 PM
Personally, I like the Vertical cover better.


And as for a request,
actually i need to port some covers i made (haven't revealed them yet) to ps1 on a certain extremely popular series i really don't even like.  ;)

(about 8 ish covers if that gives you any clues)

If you are still working on that, could you also do them with the vertical template, please?  If so, Thanks.  If not, no biggie.

I just noticed that on the vertical format of shenske's Playstation Greatest Hits template, he didn't put the "Greatest Hits" part in there. I'd understand if it was hard to convert the horizontal format to vertical for it, but without it, you can't tell that it's a "Greatest Hits" game.

Yeah, that's true, but still, if people don't like it, then they should keep their opinions to themselves. It's not Sony's fault that they went with bright green for their Greatest Hits on PS1. You don't hear me complaining about it, do you? I'm sorry if I come across as being out of line, but I don't like it when people nitpick about the littlest things, and that's all I have to say on the matter. I don't want to swamp Shenske's topic with unnecessary posts.

So you're allowed to voice an opinion but i'm not?  If you'll notice from the wink at the end it was a tongue in cheek comment - and also I was commenting on Sony's choice of colour for the GH collection, not the template - thought that was pretty obvious?!?!?!

Oh. i didn't know that. I didn't realize that was what you meant. Boy, sdo i feel stupid now!  :-[

One question, though. Why don't you like the choice of color that Sony used for their PS1 Greatest Hits? Is it because it's too bright?

Oh, and shenske, I noticed that on the vertical Greatest Hits template, instead of the Playstation logo, it has Greatest Hits instead. That's all I have to say about it. Oh, one more thing. The Greatest Hits color isn't bright green. It's more like a darker shade of green. I'm not nitpicking or anything. I just want to make sure that your template is accurate.

Could you maybe do the FF games for the PS1? What I really need is FF7, 8, and 9. Only my Final Fantasy 7 game is a Greatest Hits version. The others are black label games. Either version is fine with me, but I would prefer the vertical version, simply because I want them to look like how the original Playstation games were made. I know you don't like using that, but if someone requested it, you'd have to do it, right?

well so far everyone that has responded to my question requested a different cover to be finished. ::)
no one asked for this one (it was 90% finished anyways)

Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3

under the games they are bonus discs for or their own respective names?

Street Fighter EX + Alpha.  My 1st PS1 cover in DVD style - finding good quality art/logos for this game was a bitch!  My mint copy went for a walk years ago, and just won a disk only on ebay.

I really wanted the Breath of Fire III cover to be better. If anyone can find a hi-res scan of the PSP cover for BOF3, I would appreciate it very much. That logo would work much better for both the spine and the front, and I'd love to replace the logo on these covers with that one. I guess I'll share both the good and bad versions. Why not, someone may prefer the old BOF3 logo. Glad I could finally make covers for BOF3, Pocket Fighter and Suikoden, as they are three of my favorite PS1 titles. I don't even own BOF4, but with art so pretty I had to give it a shot.

I might make covers for other PS1 games I own.

Vagrant Story
Chrono Cross*
Rurouni Kenshin RPG
Rurouni Kenshin Fighter
Super Robot Wars Alpha
Legend of Dragoon
Tenchu 2
Tenchu **
Future Cop LAPD
Tekken 3
Medal of Honor
Medal of Honor: Underground

The higher up, the more my interest in doing the cover.

*Edit: Ah, I now see Shenske is interested in this. I guess I'll hold off on it for a while then.
** Maybe... I am using the currently existing one, but I kinda like my PS1 games to be vertical, so it may happen when I'm feeling froggy.

That's what you meant by English, right? The logo? Just so I know... It was a pain to rip the logo, what with the use of gradient, but I think it is mostly successful. I haven't got a wink of sleep lately, so I'm sure it ain't all it could be.

As for the icon, I made it a long (LONG) time ago from sprites ripped from SNK vs Capcom for the Neo Geo Pocket Color with... Ifranview? Something like that, it was WAY back in the day. I still say that SVC for the Pocket was better than any of the other crossover games Capcom or SNK were involved with (except maybe Namco x Capcom. I'm a sucker for strategy games.) If only one of them could have made a straight port of it with console graphics, that would have been the holy grail.

My current plans have me gunning for Vagrant Story (since I have some 2-disc cases to use up, and found some decent art of it) and the two Rurouni Kenshin PS1 games.

Just saw the7k’s post, so I’m sure his Vagrant Story covers will look much nicer, but had some free time this weekend due to a little medical accident, so got out my old PC and went to playing around with Photoshop 7.

Created 2 Vagrant Story covers (one with a cover to match the actual release, and one to match the custom FF covers (logos only) I’m currently using.

This is my first full cover work, so to keep this thread free from too much clutter, PM’s with feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Standard and Greatest Hits versions, since Vagrant Story did get a Green Label re-release. This has got me thinking about doing other Squaresoft RPGs that didn't have Final Fantasy in the title. I just remembered that I have Legend of Mana somewhere, and I'm looking to get Threads of Fate, which I remember playing a demo of back in the day and loving.

Velmeran: Not bad at all, actually! I would have used these myself, had there been a vertical version available.

twilight: Glad I could help!

Sark: It's pretty hard to find suitable official Suikoden art. While there's buckets of it for the sequels, the original gets kinda ignored. That picture actually came from a strategy guide, apparently.
I don't really see his face as being flat... the only thing that kinda bugs me is that it seems like it should be just a bit bigger. Also, his eyes kinda look to big, but I guess that is intentional.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Conn on July 07, 2008, 04:35:12 AM
Just one suggestion for your Suikoden cover... in the horizontal version, I would move the art over to the right a bit, to centre it. It looks a bit strange as it is.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 07, 2008, 06:59:51 AM
Actually, after measuring it, it looks more like the front art would need to be moved to the left to be completely centered. Besides, I'm already using ever bit of the art I had; if I move it to the right, there will just be dead space beside Gremio.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: juan0tron on July 07, 2008, 07:53:17 AM
Just a thought, but why the bright green on the back of the grreakest hits covers? They never did that on the ps1/ps2, plus it stands out a bit too uch. Otherwise, excellent work!
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 07, 2008, 11:04:31 AM
Well, that's just how the template worked, and it gives it a bit more uniformity. You could always just download both versions, and "copy-pasta" the back of the Black Label version onto the Greatest Hits cover. I've done it a few times myself for Dreamcast and Saturn games.

By the way, Shenske, is there any chance that you might make a vertical version of the Final Fantasy Tactics cover? Of course, do it whenever ya wanna if ya wanna, it isn't necessary. It just something I think I'll be going for.

Told'ya I'd make 'em, even if nobody'll appreciate 'um! I don't like just slapping the rear cover from the CD onto the custom cases, but in this case, I think you'd understand. I ain't gonna learn how to type Japanese in one evening.

Don't know what I'll make next. I wanna make a Threads of Fate one, but I should probably wait until I've actually got it. I also just remembered that I have Darkstalkers, Mega Man X4 and X5 somewhere around, but I'm sure plenty of other folks have those on the brain.

People always apprecite covers ... they just aren't always very vocal.  Just look at any cover thread, there usually isn't a lot of praise.  When the cover is uploaded to the site you can see how many people uses your covers by the number of downloads.

I have Megaman X4, X6 and 8 and i plan on making covers for those too
(actually X4 is just about done, 3 months ago  ::) i need to dig it back up)
You are more than welcome to make those covers too i was just letting you know that i plan on making them aswell.

Nah, I didn't mean it like that. It's just, they're Japanese games, and I doubt very many people actually have 'em.

Yeah, I kinda figured that I shouldn't worry about Mega Man. I'd rather try giving covers to games that aren't very likely to receive covers anyway. Less competition = more likelihood of people using my stuff =P

Sorry for the rather crappy quality on the front cover of this upload. Unfortunately, you have to take just about anything you can get when it comes to Legend of Dragoon images. Too many better images have the logo splashed on awkward to work with areas, it's a freaking hassle to find clean images. I'll be using the vert Green Label version myself, since I wasn't lucky enough to get it on its first run.

(*Pst!* Shenske... my FFT happens to be Green Label too. Just, throwing that out there...)

This, on the other hand, I'm rather satisfied with. I used Demitri as the cover boy because it was called "Vampire" in Japan, so the focus was kinda on him for the first game. If you don't like me using Felicia on the back cover... hey, it's my cover. =P

Hope y'all enjoy 'em! I just got Um Jammer Lammy and Ball Breakers at a pawn shop (Factory Sealed and really cheap! Hallelujah!) so I plan to make covers for them soon. However, Ball Breakers is going to be really tough to find art for... any ideas? I mean, I have the case and all its contents in perfect shape, but the last thing I wanna do is just scan the cover and stretch it to DVD cover proportions... ick.

(*Pst!* Shenske... my FFT happens to be Green Label too. Just, throwing that out there...)

My laptop has a bad power cord so i was only able to use it for about 4 hours and now i can't get it to recharge.
(FYI i'm on my parents computer right now)

i'm going to best buy to see if i can get a new cord before work.  I'll convert FFT when my computer is operational  :)

Alright, that's cool. I can understand your dilemma. ;)

btw, deathred, I may be getting Heart of Darkness. It's on my list of games to grab, and I tend to go for complete packages (unless going for the disc alone saves me $70 like it did with Albert Odyssey on Saturn, but I doubt that will be the case.) I just have to wait 'til I have a decent wad of cash on me.

I love your Legend of Dragoon covers. Do you plan to make one with the original artwork? I don't like using custom covers unless i have no other choice. I'm not saying I hate your custom LoD covers, I just want to have the original artwork for a game cover.

Shenske: Ah, that is most epic. Can't wait to see them uploaded to the site, I'll use them immediately. By the Way, the Green Label version says on the front it is rated Mature. Easy enough to fix after downloading, but I'd figure I'd let ya know.

twilightwolf77: In one sense, it shouldn't be a problem; I hang on to the psd files so it would be as simple as replacing the back and front images. The problem lies in that it is very hard to find versions of the cover image that would look good blown up to DVD sized proportions. Still, I might be able to help you out. I'll keep it on my mind. If you have any high res images of image on the front without the logo or the image on the back without all the screenshots and text, it would help me out.

deathred: No problem. Seeing as my PS3 is only backwards-compatible with PS1 games, it's made me wanna get all those games I missed out on back in Middle/High School... especially with PS3 games being so freakin' expensive.

Sark: Glad you enjoy them! I hope to make more this weekend, but we have been having some heavy lightning storms lately and its suppose to be that way pretty much the rest of this week. As crappy as my computer is, I still need it to function =P

Here's my updated 'hit list', taking into account games I have recently ordered/bought:

Vagrant Story
Rurouni Kenshin RPG
Rurouni Kenshin Fighter

Threads of Fate *
Um Jammer Lammy
Silhouette Mirage *
Tail Concerto *
Legend of Mana **
Mega Man X5 **
The Unholy War *
Duke Nukem: Time to Kill **
Ridge Racer **
Super Robot Wars Alpha **
Legend of Dragoon
Tenchu 2 *
Tenchu
King of Fighters '99
Future Cop LAPD
Tekken 3
Medal of Honor
Medal of Honor: Underground
Ball Breakers

* I should be obtaining the complete packages of these games, but they are in transit. If you have high quality scans, send 'em my way and I can get started much sooner.
** These are games that I already have, but cannot locate the cases for them. If you have the cases for these games, it would be a great assistance if you could upload high-res scans so I can use them.

US cases if possible, but any scans at all are better than none. Let me know what you wanna see covers for, and I may give it higher ground.

Meh, it's not that big a deal. All it takes is a copy-pasta of the Teen icon over the Mature one. Anyone who cares enough needs to spend all of about 5 seconds on it.

@the7k: If it's any help, Duke Nukem: Time to Kill is extremely dirt cheap to find on ebay. I see it in it's case in near mint condition for under 10 dollars after shipping on there all the time. In fact, you should be a ble to snag a copy with it's original case for 3-5 dollars on there without much trouble.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 11, 2008, 09:06:02 AM
AppleQueso: Already ordered a cheap copy a few days ago and have learned never to take for granted that it will come in its original case. If it doesn't expressly say it will be coming with the original case, it ain't coming with it. All it said was "Disc in great condition." Dammit.

I may get it again, but I'll have to wait until I can pay off all the rest of my eBay purchases. Ended up going about $15 over my gaming budget, and I can't just take it out of my gas budget like I used to back in the day.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Hero's Shade on July 11, 2008, 06:40:03 PM
the7k, I have the actual game with me. If you want, I can scan them in and upload them.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 11, 2008, 10:36:07 PM
twilightwolf77: Yes, that would be much appreciated. Also, if you have the strategy guide for the game... It's the same extra image as the jewel case cover, but 8x11, making it much easier to scale to a DVD case properly.

I might just buy the strategy guide, seeing as it's only $1.20 plus shipping. I still want the cd scans though; the more reference, the better.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Hero's Shade on July 11, 2008, 10:40:44 PM
the7k: I actually do have the guide, too. I'll scan that in, too, when I get a chance. Oh, by the way, my version of TLoD is a GH version. Will that be a problem?
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 12, 2008, 12:06:31 AM
Regardless, a GH version scan is better than what I'm working with now =P

Thanks, I appreciate the help!
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Hero's Shade on July 12, 2008, 12:31:29 PM
Okay. I'll scan them in. Did you want just the front and back, or everything, including the inlays?
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on July 12, 2008, 09:04:10 PM
Oh wait, I just realized your talking about Legend of Dragoon. (Sorry, I haven't had more than 9 hours of sleep in the past three days) I've already got the case for the GH version. I don't need scans of the LoD cover, what I would like to find is a high-res scan of the cover without the LoD logo and other stuff obscuring the image, and also find the image on the back without all the text, screenshots, game info, etc. This would allow me to fully manipulate the cover/back as I need in order to make it work for the DVD dimensions.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Hero's Shade on July 12, 2008, 09:39:55 PM
Do you still want me to scan in the front of the guide that I have of it? It has the logo, but it should still help.

Yeah, I'll take a scan of the guide, it should help a lot.

And thanks for the Duke scan, sheep. I think I'll hold off on the back scan though, I tend to redo those completely anyway.

Theres a PS2 one in there for comparison. Question is do we go with the all black spine to let PS stand out a bit, or copy the classic PS2 design? Thers also PS2 style text or the fancy stuff from the U.S versions. Suggestions ?

Well - as i'm only recasing PS1 games that are part of an ongoing series with PS2 titles - i'm matching mine with the classic PS2 PAL look - white background, black text.  If i was planning to recase all of my PS1, I would probably go down a different route though................

Of course my other option is to redo the covers of the PS2 titles to match the nicer spines you have done, but i doubt that will ever happen  8)

I hear it can take a really long time for your covers to be uploaded depending. Just be patient, it'll get there.

Great job on it by the way. Any chance of you perhaps converting it to a horizontal version?

I don't even own Darkstalkers 3, but I love the series so much I wanted to make one anyway. (Although I do own Vampire Savior for Saturn, and its basically the same game with less loading time). If fact, I wanted to make one so bad, I made two; use the second one if you don't think the first is 'classy' enough. If these ain't as good as usually, it's because I only get to work on them when I should be asleep... and on that note, it's about time to hit the hay.

I was referring to some of the ones you had made that I use myself. 

I did a search for "Legend of Mana" and there are numerous threads just begging for  Legend of Mana cover.  Since it's apparent that the old Playstation 1 RPGs get a lot of attention around here (Xenogears, Vagrant Story, Final Fantasies, etc.) I think it's time we add Legend of Mana to the mix.  It's the only game so far I haven't transplanted over to my new DVD-covered Playstation 1 collection.

I will provide any amount of support for this endevour.  It looks like the scans are already available, just looking for some awesome dude/dudette to put it together.

I know that there are much better covers for MGS out there, but none of them were vertical. So, here are mine. Did the Shenske deal of making logo variants. The cover variant with only Snake on the front cover was done by Artgerm (Stanley Lau). Hopefully, he won't mind his image being used for covers; normally, I wouldn't worry about it, but I don't believe he is affiliated officially with MGS in anyway.

I may make a Legend of Mana cover at some point. It's on my to-do list, but my job has been sucking away time feverishly. I've also just started working on a Medal of Honor cover, but I can always put that one on hold.

Post by: megaman001 on July 22, 2008, 10:34:35 AM
7k, love the look of those MGS covers.

I'd like to put my vote in for putting off the Medal of Honor cover in favor of Legend of Mana - I think Legend of Mana would get a lot more use.

Post by: KaiserWAVE on July 22, 2008, 02:19:11 PM
I'd like to see some alternate covers for the Medal Of Honor games. I really don't like the retail art, at least not the PAL ones.

As for Legend Of Mana, we have the retail cover hosted here, if it's a matter of getting art to work with, one could easily convert our CD case to DVD.

Hope you guys enjoy this. Could have been better, but it'll do for now I suppose.

I'll start working on that MoH cover again, but I don't know of where to get MoH art from, aside from the cases and such. Even though MoH was a pretty huge game, EA never did tend to make a whole lot of supplemental materials for their games. If you know of any, though, be sure to let me in on it. Until then, I'll just be using the original cover for the US version.

Other games I plan to get to in due time are:
Threads of Fate
Tail Concerto
Um Jammer Lammy
The Unholy Wars

Why limit yourself to the art that EA had for MOH. I think it would be an interesting approach to create something entirely different.

Post by: the7k on July 22, 2008, 05:10:06 PM
Well, what did you have in mind? I'm not exactly the best at drawing World War II images, and doing a search for such things brings in a whole lot of unusable junk.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: KaiserWAVE on July 22, 2008, 05:56:45 PM
Since the MOH games use just random drawn images of soldiers you could pretty much use any WWII related image you could find with google's image search. Given the random art of the retail box it doesn't even have to be related to the actual missions in the game.

The unofficial image comes from Inako@deviantart's "World War II - In the Corner." Again, hopefully he won't mind my using of his image; it was truly the only suitable image I could find for a Medal of Honor cover, and it's actually damn nice.

Well, I have to go into work tomorrow, so that's where I'm sure I'll be for the next five days. Hope you guys enjoy this for now.

You can still see the perforated crease of the rear artwork from the PS1 case on the spine of your Persona 2.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: juan0tron on July 27, 2008, 07:20:27 PM
I think you should replace the spine on the Persona 2 cover. You can still see that it was scanned directly from the PSX case, and i think it may be a bit crooked, because it throws the rest of the image off.

Also, do we need the "1 Disc" image? Seems kind of unneeded, especially when the back of Persona 2 says it includes a bonus disc.

Otherwise, good work on the covers, hope to see more  ;D


Edit: Oh i see what's wrong with it. I think the back was scanned in slightly crooked, so all you need to do is adjust that a few degrees then go over the crease in photoshop
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread

The other cover is actually pretty well done. Aside from  the "1 Disc" thing again and the logo being squished to fit the spine, I like it.

I think it's a great idea to create a Tales of Destiny and a Tales of Eternia (TOD 2 in the U.S.) PS1 DVD covers
I think i would retitle ps1 TOD2 to Tales of Eternia as to not get them mixed up; As there is a PS2 game that is a true sequel to TOD titled TOD2
I want to create new front covers for both of these games, the cover art on the original boxes is really substandard.
Although I do think the back covers on both games are fine I think if they are not stretched just copied and pasted and modified with new backgrounds they would look acceptable.
I would make both of their spines have a similar design, maybe something like the tales of the abyss spine just big lettering no graphic.

I think maybe we should use original art from the old namco websites to create like a montage of the main characters and the swordians on the cover more of a hand drawn look.
maybe from http://toddc.jp/ or http://namco-ch.net/talesofdestiny_ps2dc/index.php or http://tales.namco.com/destiny/

on Tales of eternia it should pretty much the same thing hand drawn elements except without swords

I have very little skill in creating art.  So the Tales of Destiny one I made was just a scan of the original PSone art and refitted to a DVD case.  Since they were scanned in high res, there's no quality loss unlike upscaling from those website images.  Though if you need the original inlays and original PS format scans I can provide those if they help you.

The case shouldn't really be THAT hard to take apart. I've disassembled and reassembled cases numerous times. You won't be ruining anything unless you're a huge klutz.

Pull on the spine area lifting away from the case; at the same time, push down the bottom of the case.

Each case is designed the same way, four notches: two on the bottom, two on the top. the best way to remove it is by pulling on the 'spine' area.

You can start with light pressure and ease more if needed.

Just a question to all the cover-holics out there; how would you like the demo covers to look when I finally get around to them? While the PlayStation Underground discs had very clear packaging, the Official PlayStation Magazine discs did not, which will be the majority of the discs anyway. I know some people prefer the most prominent demo to be the focus of the cover, but I was kinda thinking of making the cover reflect the theme of the disc. For example, the first few OPM discs had a space adventure theme to them, the second batch had a dystopian future feel to them, etc.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Sark on August 03, 2008, 08:56:49 AM
Yeah that's a good idea to have them reflect the theme, unfortunately i think i've thrown out many of the demo disks I think i still have a few around.

i haven't updated my template to have the demo disc option yet because i am waiting on LJ to finish up his revision of the "Gray PSone" style. 
I'm going to add both options at once to save time.

Awesome work, Grumble.  These covers make me wish I had more PS1 games.  I printed off the custom cover for Tekken 3, by the way.  You really did a good job with that custom back cover.

I'm not trying to complain, but I am curious though, why did you choose to do a white PlayStation logo on the spine for the Marvel Super Heroes horizontal instead of your regular black?  Using this page of this thread as a metric, all of your covers have a black logo except the one marvel horizontal above.  I typically modify black PS logos on covers since I've only ever seen them on the Greatest Hits version of PlayStation games, and I don't really like or see many greatest hits covers...

Awesome work, Grumble.  These covers make me wish I had more PS1 games.  I printed off the custom cover for Tekken 3, by the way.  You really did a good job with that custom back cover.

I'm not trying to complain, but I am curious though, why did you choose to do a white PlayStation logo on the spine for the Marvel Super Heroes horizontal instead of your regular black?  Using this page of this thread as a metric, all of your covers have a black logo except the one marvel horizontal above.  I typically modify black PS logos on covers since I've only ever seen them on the Greatest Hits version of PlayStation games, and I don't really like or see many greatest hits covers...

Firstly, glad you liked the Tekken cover.It was nice doing something with a lot of art floating about the net for a custom instead of trawling through tons of crap scans. And the reason i put the white PS logo in was because i had only done one horizontal cover for U.S PS1 and had used the white logo on it. However as the black one is far more popular, i will alter it before posting. (not going to alter the imandix though!!)
And thanks for the feedback..its allways appreciated. :)

As you can see, this particular art lends itself better to the vertical style of case, had to slice up Wolverine to keep aspect something like right for the horizontal one.

Hot damn -- that looks fantastic, thanks Grumble! :) If you feel ambitious and wouldn't mind tackling some of my other requests in that thread, it'd be absolutely appreciated!

Had a good mess around with the horizontal version so we did'nt have to lose so much to keep the aspect.

Looks great, thanks! I few minor nitpicks on the horizontal -- if they're easy to fix, great, if not, no big deal -- :

1) The front ESRB says "Mature", but the back lists "Everyone"

2) On the spine, the Playstation logo is black and missing the white rectangle that appears on your MSH cover -- any chance this can be adjusted to match that one?

Again -- definitely appreciate the covers!  :D

EDIT: Just saw the posts between you and Xander -- I personally prefer the white logo, so is there a chance you could post the covers that way, as well? Or perhaps just e-mail me a copy before it gets altered? :)

Believe it or not, i spotted the spine and rating earlier when i first posted the imandix. Changed the cover but did'nt do the imandix so i updated that too. I am uploading stuff at the moment so i will put up some white logo's as well.

haha - just working on the EA side of things - still a stack more to go (although no pro-evo)

I know what you mean about needing the space - but the thought of having to recase around 500 dvd covers makes me want to cry!

Can you elaborate? I'm interested in how people case their media. Are you just slimming down movies and music, or games too?

DVDs and games are finally going to get some shelving that isn't broken or halfway used by books, cables, or printers. My basement is just now starting to become clean so I'm thinking about finally casing my neglected PS1 games. (Also have no covers for N64 and no cases for all GB/GBC and some GBA) Not to mention the obnoxious amount of custom covers I'd have to make for all the demo discs I have. :o I made one perfect and that took like 1/2 of a Saturday. :-\ Nothing compared to the work some of the other admins and gurus do, but it's weird to spend the most time on a cover for a game that will almost never be played. I also feel awful requesting a cover when I can do the work on my own. (except for the template work. Photoshop is so expensive and hard to pirate!)

Post by: Grumbleduke on September 17, 2008, 05:02:21 PM
Well,my goal eventually would be to have everything i have in my collection out on display. However i simply dont have the room to do this so in order to make space, all DVD case based games are/will be converted to the 9mm covers which effectively halves the space each one needs. I also want to case DC/PS1/Mega CD/NEO GEO CD/3DO/CD32/CDI and PC Engine CD in the same way. So basically, all Discs in 9mm boxes,all carts in UGC (except Megadrive and Master System)and one shelf for outsize stuff or NEO GEO carts as they are the only outsize cases i intend to have left. All the original cases and boxes are packed away in the loft. Trouble is i keep buying more stuff so it could be a never ending task. ;D

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/raw/Sony%20-%20PS2/sheep2001.retail.raw_ps2_ps2-getondamic_eu.jpg

Its PAL, but I would like it to be NTSC but it really doesn't matter, I just need the scan.

Please!  ;D

And if there is a PS2 cover thread feel to re-direct this post to that one. Sorry!!!

should be PS2 cover thread - but here goes - (since I provided the original scan thought i'd have a go)

Oh man, thanks so much.  Awesome work, and again, very much appreciated.

Noticed that there is allready an NTSC DVD cover on the site B.T.W.

The cover doesn't really follow any sort of standard, it looks like it's a fairly old one without any consistency to some of the new templates.

Had issues with the games logo, it didnt look right on the spine because it came out to small so i had to swap to just text and change from the all grey colour scheme.

OK - well waiting for my copy of Wipeout 3 special proved fruitless, as it turned out to be the dual pack with Destruction Derby 2 - great to get the game, as my original went walkabouts a long time ago, but it means the cover was rubbish - just a tiny thumbnail and an unusable back.  So i went for a 100% custom - and i kinda like it:

Don't get me wrong.. I'm not saying that I hate vertical for the way it looks. After all, look at all my templates (SCD, SAT, 3DO)... They are all vertical.

But in the case of PS1 (were most of the games come in square CD cases), the top logo template works better. You can fit a lot more of the original cover into the, and it matches the PS2 cases.

Post by: the7k on October 05, 2008, 04:17:09 AM
Nice job, sheep; I'll have to get a vert of that Ridge Racer, but it should be easy enough to do for myself.

My whole deal with the horz/vert situation is that I went with the vert specifically because it was different from the PS2's horz orientation. I can tell from just a glance at the front cover that it is a PS1 game, which is nice considering that my PS3 is the cheap ol' "PS2-uncompatible" model. Also, the vert feels more retro, and it fits the spirit of the old jewel case template they worked with back in the day.

I do share the sentiments about it being a freakin' hassle to format the retail covers with though. It's the reason so many of the vert covers end up being custom. Just a small sacrifice as far as I'm concerned though.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: sheep2001 on October 05, 2008, 05:24:17 AM
i agree the vert look real nice - especially with a black spine - but as i'm predominantly only recasing PS1 games where the series continues on the PS2 - i wanted some uniformity.

Mine is the non PS2 compat ps3 too - but since i have a hard disk stuck in by PS2 it's no big deal.

If you want the PSD or raws for RR let me know

While those are nice, and I even printed one out myself, they do not match the Suikoden I custom cover found here, nor the official Suikoden III, IV, V, & Suikoden Tactics covers because those above are missing the 3 windows on the spine that is uniform across the series.

Not bad on the Soul Reaver covers. Do you plan to do a NTSC version?

Should be easy enough. I will look into it.

I can see Blast Chamber on e-bay for around a fiver - more than i'd usually pay for a PS1 title - would you say it was worth it?

Hmmm.. well as a one player game, its more of a puzzle against the clock that has a rigid, and by that i mean one, way of solving each level.But with a multitap and a few pals, its quite good fun in a death match style. I probably wouldnt pay a fiver though.

Almost perfect... I really like the pictures on the spine, but is there any way to make the name on the spine look to say Suikoden II instead of having the II behind the word Suikoden? Anyway to make it similar to Suikoden III spine shown below, where on the spine it says Suikoden III, but on the front cover the III is behind the word Suikoden?

Between the worlds of light and dark lies the world of dreams. A world where the rule of reason loosens its grip. A place where an insidious evil is stealing minds and blackening the hearts of those from the world of light. Grab a weapon and become the dreamwalker Alundra as he struggles to purge the evil Id of an ancient world before it falls to ash. Explore dungeons, find weapons, solve challenging puzzles and kick some serious monster butt as you weave between tense reality and nightmarish dreams to save the hapless masses. With a wide cast of characters and scores of challenging puzzles created by the people responsible for Landstalkerâ„¢ on the Genesis, Alundra will rob you of precious sleep until you finish!

and i do as well. its more of a preference, but since the game came in a bigger cd case, i like having bigger dvd cases, so they stand out more on my shelf.  it doesnt matter though, as i dont intend to switch over my ps1 games to dvd cases, it was just a suggestion so those who want to put it in a bigger case can do so.

oh i forgot a word in my first sentence.  as far as the text goes i just copied what was on another cover that is already on the site. 
i don't know a whole lot about the game, i don't like the FF series. 

If you can think of 2-3 sentences that are better suited than the ones i am using please let me know.

I remember you stating before that you weren't really a fan of the series, you just were interested in making the covers.

As for an alternate text, how about this one, taken from the GBA re-release:
Quote
A thousand years after the War of the Magi, the Ghestalian Empire has succeeded in reviving the lost power of magic through it's clandestine Magitek research program. Now, as the Empire threatens to enslave the world with it's new found might, it's up to a band of rebels known as the Returners to find a way to strike back before the flames of war consume the world once more.

I hope that's not too wordy.

Forgot, never got them uploaded to the site --- a zip file is out on Megaupload (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=47MQPRX4) which contains:
- Box scans of Front, Back, Top, Bottom and both sides.
- CD Case scans of: Front Cover, Front Inlay, Back Cover, Back Inlay
- Omake Box scans of Front and Back
- Front cover scan of the manual.

My scanner has no descreen/derasterized option, so the images are at 600DPI raws. Since the time of those scans I've learned several ways to clean the raws myself, so when I get home from work I'll go ahead and clean most of the scans up and reupload them.

Wow, fantastic work on all of them!

I like the Arc the Lad cover just the way you got it -- I can provide text if there are others out there who would want text added; but since their is text for the collection itself, and then Arc the Lad I, Arc the Lad II & Arc Arena, and then Arc the Lad III I think it would end up looking cluttered.

No, no, no... Sorry for not being clear. I'm looking for either just 1 DVD case for the whole collection altogether or 1 case for each game in the collection, i.e. 1 case for Arc the Lad 1, 1 case for Arc 2, 1 case for Arc 3, & 1 case for Arc Monster Tourney. I've never liked the whole multiple DVD cases for one game look. So, to sum up, either just 1 case for the whole collection, or 1 case per game in the collection, regardless if the game has multiple discs, as I just put 1 disc in the holder and the rest in paper sleeves inside the case.

P.S. the whole spine art isn't necessary just the back cover art/in-game screens. If you make 1 case for the whole series include 1 pic of each game, i.e. 4 pics, on the back of the case. If you make multiple cases the pics should pertain to the game the case is a cover of.

I should have known you'd be the one to help, Grumble ;) Looks great -- the only thing I've noticed on these covers (and this is *very* minor) is on the bottom of the spine, you have the 'SLUS' next to the number; looking at other covers, it seems the 'SLUS' should go above the numbers. If this can be changed, great -- if not, no big deal. Thanks a ton!

Care to finish off my entire PS1 collection with Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue while you're at it? ;D

Edit: Another minor note -- it looks (from the small image) like the slashes are facing the wrong way in the URL in the bottom left hand corner. I told you it was minor :)

Vt, since you got an additional request for the Arc the Lad collection, I figured I'd get you the text in case you wanted to use it

Six Disc Collector's Edition!
* Includes: 5 Game CDs, and 1 Exclusive "Making of Arc The Lad" CD!
* 150+ Page Leatherette Hardbound Artbook/Instruction Manual!
* Exclusive Thumb Button Covers!
* Exclusive Memory Card Holder!
* Exclusive Character Mini-Standees!

Arc the Lad I
The first game in the series that really redefined what a Strategy/RPG cold be introduces players to a magical world teetering on the edge of destruction. Only young Arc possesses the power to stop the impending destruction, as he fights his way to unsealing the power of the Ark, with help from his friends Kukuru, Poco, Tosh, Gogen and Iga.

Arc the Lad II and Arc Arena
The second game in the ARc series introduces Elc, a bounty hunter with a tragic past. He must join forces with Arc to stop the minions of the Dark One, whose presence was only hinted at in the first game. A vast array of impressive Strategy/RPG innovations are introduced in this chapter, like the job system, weapon melding, and multiple-viewpoint storylines. In another first for a U.S. console gaming, players can load Arc the Lad II save data into the innovative Arc Arena CD that is included in the package. Players can then take monsters captured in their individual games and battle it out for prizes in the monster tournament!

Arc the Lad III
Arc the Lad III introduces a new lead character, Alec, and ties up all the storylines developed in the first two games ina  way that will leave diehard role-playing fans breathless. It also brings the Arc world into a fully-3D polygon environment! Join Alec as he continues Arc's heroic battle to save the world from the black advance of ultimate evil!

Ok...fixed up the scratches on the back. As for the web address and SLUS bit, they are the same as the other ones i have done from your list,but i can change it if you want. :). And it would seem a shame not to do the last of your PS titles so i started on that but give me a couple of days to finish it...got 5 covers all about 50% done (mostly Atari 2600 but yours is one of them) and want to get them all done over the weekend.

@PR Mega
Ok...fixed up the scratches on the back. As for the web address and SLUS bit, they are the same as the other ones i have done from your list,but i can change it if you want. :). And it would seem a shame not to do the last of your PS titles so i started on that but give me a couple of days to finish it...got 5 covers all about 50% done (mostly Atari 2600 but yours is one of them) and want to get them all done over the weekend.
Links ahoy!!

Eh, I can certainly live without the changes, no big deal :) No rush on the final cover -- I'm just happy to know it's on the list! Once again, I am in your debt, sir! :D

ehh ... i don't really want to, to be honest.
(in fact i don't really want to do the PS1 FFs either, don't like the games)

i mostly just did this to be nice and fill a request.
i will definately do the rest of th PS1 covers, we will just have to see after that.  :)

EDIT: 
i haven't made any Dreamcast covers in a while and i'm not even 1/2 way through my personal list on that system. 
Plus i want to finish off at least my personal collection of vertical SNES covers.

You guys might notice that there is a lot of PS1 games missing from the upload section.

I just wanted to let you know that they are being processed in order to be added to the site. I'll take me a few days as there are about 250 PS1 and Saturn covers im looking at.

They'll be uploaded in batches so be patient.

ah, so that's what happened to my Silent Hill covers I assume? I recently made some revisions to them, could I send those to you real fast before you add them? (assuming they weren't simply rejected that is...)

EDIT: I realize it's late, and I probably shouldn't be assuming anything, but I went ahead and sent you a PM about this anyhow.

I was bored and ended up making some alternate front covers for my SH cases:

(http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i107/applequeso/IC_sh3alt.jpg)
(http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i107/applequeso/IC_sh4alt.jpg)

can't do SH1 right now as all of the images I used are on my old laptop HDD. I'll get to it once I can get the images again though.

Feedback is welcome.

Post by: AppleQueso on October 31, 2008, 08:40:54 PM

added SH1. These all have a different "feel" than the other ones, so they'll be uploaded separately as an alternative for those who don't like the more minimal look of my old covers for these.

thoughts?

I thought that I would start working on some new covers, but I need some advice from you folks.  My plan is to start making DVD covers for Japanese Playstation RPGs, but I'm running into some issues finding decent scans.  As a test case, I tried cleaning up some lower res scans with Vector Magic to see if they were usable.

(http://i247.photobucket.com/albums/gg142/rbenchley/TwinBeeRPG.jpg)

I think that it worked out pretty well, but I'm not sure about the screenshots on the back cover.  Do you guys think that the quality is decent enough?

after seeing my SH covers again once Vt102 added them I can definitely see what Doom meant. I know I've already flipped several times but I've decided permanently that I'm not going to upload the alternates to the site. Instead, I'll upload them elsewhere and give a link in my sig. The reason why is that I've been playing with a lot of alternate ideas, etc, and don't want to bother the admins with extra covers when they could be handling my more important uploads, such as my GCN Resident Evil covers once they're finished.

I was starting to mod the cover and then I realized that you wanted Vertical not Horizontal.

I'm afraid that I can't mod it that way without the original layered PSD image and it is unlikely that Shenske (the original artist) will do it as he has now partially left the cover project.

Hopefully another person can mod the cover for you. Sorry

I'll be making more eventually. I have a huge amount of OPM demo discs, it's just a matter of finding where they are. #10 was just the earliest one I could find, plus it's a pretty nice one. Gran Turismo, Tomba and Granstream Saga? Not a bad collection.

Do you have the Pizza Hut demos? I  have no idea what type of case they came in, as I don't have a case for them. I would appreciate even raw scans due to its obscurity.

Don't have the Pizza Hut demos (Which is strange, cuz I coulda swore I had a Pizza Hut demo with FFVIII on it.) I do have a lot of them though, among them being OPM, PlayStation Underground, Toys R Us, and a few that only feature one game such as Legend of Legaia and Wild Arms 2.

This logo artwork does not work well at all for a cover thats not completely horizantal.
It turned out as good as it can be but not what i was aiming for.

This is my "minimal contribution" for a little bit  :)

Wasn't Final Fantasy 5 released along with FF6 in FF Anthology? Oh, and when you have the time, shenske, you should do a vertical version of the FF5 cover, for the sake of completion. And I have an idea for the rest of your covers that are like this that are vertical. You should try overlapping the picture onto the black label for the front and spine and see how that looks.

yes but it would stick out and would no longer be consistant w/ the other covers if i named it FF anthology.  it works better stand alone  :)

the art doesn't work that way.  i wanted to do that like i did with the horizantal versions.
But i had to shrink the art when i converted it to the vertical template.

Parity I guess.. This way you can have PS and PS2 games side by side and they would look similar.

I personally like the horizontal a lot better than vertical cuz it fits the original (CD CASE) art a lot better.

5.5x5.75in for a standard CD Jewel Case, even with the "vertical" Playstatation bar, I would assume it's easier to convert a cover to a horizontal cover than a vertical, as there is less skewing of the image that way.

I mean, we're already messing the initial dimensions up, but considering how much farther you skew the Height vs Width on a veritcal compared to a horizontal IMO adds up.

Yes.. true that the original covers have the playstation name in a vertical form, but the art itself when transplanted to a DVD case, fits a lot better in horizontal form.

here is a quick visual example of this argument

Both use the unconverted original art from CD case.  The gray area around the art is the space the original art does not use up.
The horizantal way covers nearly the entire area.  The vertical way covers about 60% of the area. 
Therefore original art (from CD case) is better suited for the horizantal way.

 ??? No one has an issue with what you personally like twilightwolf77. In fact you're the one who brought up the issue to begin with and we've all just been explaining why it doesn't work as well in the vertical style due to the facts of the height and width not matching up. It was an explanantion based mainly on the facts at hand, not an affront to your personal tastes, facts in which you were proven to be wrong about after stating to Vt: "Actually, the CD case art for the PS1 games weren't horizontal, but vertical. Even you should've known that." This whole discussion has been a tangent initiated by you and your tone throughout has been defensive and bewildering.

Be it vertical or horizantal.  Lets please stop all talk or bashing of which is better.

Any chance someone would be willing to make some covers for Saga Frontier and Saga Frontier 2? After my latest round of printing (thanks vt!) I realized the spine quality on those 2 covers was quite poor compared to the rest of the covers I'd gotten from this site.

I had recently printed out Shenske's Final Fantasy Tactics cover. When I had it in the case I noticed something odd in one of the screenshots...

(http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i107/applequeso/screen.jpg)

now I don't remember THAT being in the game  :D

I'm just wondering now if it was intentional or not.

Looks shopped in, but it's good for a laugh. I'm impressed (if it indeed is a shop) he found a font that matches the font used intiailly.

WOW, haha  :o

No that is not intentional in the slightest. 
I got if off a site that reviewed the game, it had many pictures i just happened to choose the gag picture i guess. 
I don't like FF, i didn't think to read the text. 

:-[ Sorry

The background color is much more smooth in a rectangle around the text (probably to cover up the old text) than it is towards the bottom of the text box (where there was no text to cover up). I'd say its photoshopped, but it is some pretty convincing work at first glance.  ;)

Any chance someone would be willing to make some covers for Saga Frontier and Saga Frontier 2? After my latest round of printing (thanks vt!) I realized the spine quality on those 2 covers was quite poor compared to the rest of the covers I'd gotten from this site.

If nobody wants to, I can live with what I have currently but it never hurts to ask (Oh, and I'd be fine with either style)

I have been working on Saga Frontier (only the rear to go), but not on Saga Frontier 2.

I think saying it was "photoshopped" is giving it too much credit. You could do that in MSpaint.

but yeah, I didn't even notice until after it was already printed and in the case. I'm not really bothered by it, but I think it's kinda funny that it happened.

You guys have been making some great covers lately! That Legend of Mana cover is very nice and the persona ones have been great also!
I Printed out the Chrono cross cover that was just made and that one looks great!
It looks like someone has uploaded a new Grandia cover that is sort of weird looking so someone else is trying to make a Grandia cover. The new one still doesn't do the game justice though, someone made a Great Grandia II cover for dreamcast I would like to modify that one to match the PS1 Grandia and the PS2 Grandia III so I can display them all together.

My list for needing Ps1 DVD covers is still-
Fear effect 1 and 2
Wild arms 2
Grandia
Gundam Battle assault 1 and 2
Tales of destiny 1 and 2

T.Y :). My PS3 does but its an Asian version and was a launch day original. Not sure if the newer ones have backward compatability.PS3's are region locked for PS1 and PS2 games also, so you need a JP/Asian one to play JP games.

The Strider Hiryu cover looks fantastic. Shouldn't there be a Capcom logo somewhere on the spine, though? An extremely minor crit though, as it looks awesome nonetheless.

RockinX I really like your Rockman Dash 2 cover as well! The spine looks a little funny with the vertical text but overall it's great.

T.Y :). Yeh, there ought to be a CAPCOM logo on the spine but i dropped it so it matched the spines in my collection. I did the same thing with SF Zero 2, only the coloured bit at the spine bottom gives away that its a JP version.(and the fact it has NTSC/J on the top). ;)

Shenske, those covers are AMAZING!

Two things though. You're not entirely done, at least I hope you won't be. You should do covers for Tactics, and Vagrant Story (seeing as they're both in the world of FFXII) And if you want to get real FF crazy, do Ehrgeiz, and matching PS2 covers for X, X-2, XI, XII and FFVII DoC.

And second, the cover for FFVII seems kinda odd being that the logo you used is the one for Advent Children.

Just some ideas. ;)

Well, they are really great covers, and if he would want to provide .psd files so maybe someone else could continue them, maybe that would be better.

Edit: Anyways, to stop the spamming of the thread with chatter, I thought I should be the first to contribute on this page. ;)

I made covers for Pandemonium 1 and 2 using the template from this site.

If anyone is interested enough, let me know, and I'll whip out vertical versions as well, even though I figured they don't fit as good, and I'd have to blow up the main images even more.

I haven't looked at the images, but keep in mind that taking a low resolution image and stretching it to DVD size and calling it a day won't meet The Cover Project standards. Since I haven't looked at your covers, I don't know if that's the case with yours, so don't take it the wrong way.

In the sidebar on the <-left, under "Links", click "Upload a Cover". Where it says "Cover" click browse, and locate the file (saved in .jpg, and properly formatted) and press OK. Where it says "Author" type (or copy+paste) your user name. Next to country, locate the country the cover is for. For "platform", select the system the cover is for. Check "this is a raw scan" if your upload is a straight scan, final covers are NOT raw scans. If your cover is a custom cover (which all PS1 DVD covers besides the official SONY METAL GEAR SOLID covers and a few others are), then check that box.

Haha . . . ehh I'm done.

I already made a tactics cover.  The tactics logo is horizantal art so i looks horrible in a vertical canvas.  Either art gets chopped off or you get a lot of empty black space.  I don't like the idea of making a Vagrant story cover themed in the Final fantasy 20th Style or in fact making offshoots themed that way either.  Same goes for Ehrgeiz

No PS2, all PS2 FF have horzantal logos, same explanation as above

And second, the cover for FFVII seems kinda odd being that the logo you used is the one for Advent Children.

The original FFVII comet does not have much detail to it and is illegible to what it even is when blown up



As symptomsofmercy said, i really don't like FF in the first place  :-\

Overall, Sorry to dissappoint
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: slackbabbath on December 18, 2008, 12:58:46 AM
Shenske, after you're reply, I perfectly understand. And it does make me realize it is quite out of the way. And I tried blowing up the FFVII Comet myself, and you're right, it is really bland.

And thank you Doom for telling me how to upload. I do now see though that the thing I had wrong was the format, I was trying to upload .PNG images.

And the images on the cover are the best they're going to get unless someone does a very HQ scan of either a foreign PC version or the Sega Saturn versions. Which is where I got the images, just not that HQ of scans. They're not horrible or anything, and the lack of pure quality when printed isn't noticeable. I use them myself.

I'll upload 'em in jpeg in a bit. I'm also going to add the logo that I see I forgot. lol

ok...its a couple of versions from different machines cobbled together for the front and the back is from a Saturn version with some added. I know the logos on the spine are different on them both and thats cos' some input is needed on what looks better (theres only one way to find out...FIGHT!!-©Harry Hills TV Burp  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Hill's_TV_Burp). The original logo is a little small and the 'gobbos' bit is unreadable. The one where i blew up the Legend line is more readable but just looks strange to me. Thoughts ???

@phiberosmosis
any changes other than a decision on the spine. Let me know...and now to bed..its 1.45 am. :)

At a quick glance, I'll tell you they could be better. The resolution looks good on these, but the problem is all those little dots you see on the scans. Enabling the Descreen or Derasterize option in your scanning software will do a lot to clean that up.

3. After you scanned it, did you just upload the raw scan or did you use any type of software to convert/resize/rename the scan before uploading it?

Well, looking over the specs for that scanner, its better than mine. I don't know what scanning software came with yours. I have an HP scanner (stand alone) and it came with a program call HP Director. This software defaults to 200dpi every time you use it, so I have to change it to 300dpi or 600dpi whenever I scan things.

You should be able to scan covers with no problems with that scanner.

Post by: Yumil1988 on January 04, 2009, 12:16:43 PM
First, allow me to express how much I love that Final Fantasy set. Someone requested it a couple pages back, but I'd also like to see the other games in the series get matching cases, especially Tactics, FFX, & FFXII. And while it has nothing to do with the PSone, I wouldn't mind having an FF3 DS case with the same style as well. I've known about this project for a long time, and any time I pick up a game at Gamestop without a cover I always come get it, but that Final Fantasy set threw me into a near-obsession with custom covers. I bought 4 disc DVD cases just to justify printing the FF9 cover.

So now that I've been caught up in this great stuff, I've decided to case all of my games, DVD sized first. Unfortunately, I found a game you all didn't have. So I made it myself, and I'll upload it in a few minutes. It's for Threads of Fate, and I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.

I may look at that. I have it printed out, and it works. But the artwork is very faded looking - more faded than I intended. It's a simply matter of changing the opacity on the layers in Photoshop. Originally, I had opted to fade it out to help hide that it was less-than-stellar quality artwork that I had doctored up just a bit to try and make it work well. I thought it was a bit odd that there were no custom covers for the game, and a part of that may be the lack of any kind of high resolution artwork. All of the official artwork Square released, that I have be able to find, is small. I wasn't even able to find a logo more than 200ish pixels wide (the logo I used is cut out of the cover scan).

I will brighten up the photos and see how it works out. Just don't want the artwork to appeal too pixelated.

@Lumberjack: Great stuff. Too bad I don't own those games, huh? :P

Post by: Yumil1988 on January 06, 2009, 02:36:06 AM
Threads of Fate Take 2. I went a bit beyond just brightening up the photos. I decided to look at using the original front and back again, and it turns out the cover scans worked out much better than anything else I found. It still had to be stretched some, but not nearly to the extent of the others. Unfortunately, the odd placement of some things on the back of it make that much more difficult to use. I added in some of the text I had left off previously and brightened up the artwork. I think this one turned out much, much better than before.

I'm not the best at this nifty little 3D thing, so pardon my slightly off center looking cover. The image also makes the back a bit difficult to read. I was worried about that when I was creating it, but it seems to only be a monitor thing. With the cover printed out and in the case, it's not difficult to read at all. Now, if for some odd reason you were trying to read the back of the cover from several feet away, then it might be more difficult.

(http://i41.tinypic.com/15xvj90.jpg)

Again, I really do appreciate anything you have to say, even if you're trying to make me cry. I intend to cover everything I have (got a loooooot of Super NES stuf to do  :-\ ....or request), so I would hope that I can get better as I go.  ;)

Post by: PDDestro on January 06, 2009, 06:37:51 AM
Yumil, that's looks really good, but, if I really wanted to nit-pick I'd bemoan the lack of wrap-around cover art on the spine. Look at the BoF covers above, the wrap around art improves the custom covers big time IMO. As it is it looks really good, but why not go for the gusto? ;D

Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Yumil1988 on January 08, 2009, 09:42:01 PM
Vicman, I almost ignored you. I too prefer to have the art wrap around the spine. I included this in the faded "take one" and removed it in "take 2" because the artwork just wouldn't play nice. It was much better quality than the previous stuff, but still wasn't quite what I needed to do whatever I wanted with it. I could have stretched it just a tad more and probably gotten away with fine quality, but the logo would have been off center and all wrong.

So, I was ready to quit and then just happened to open up my copy of the game and saw my manual (which is, of course, the cover from the CD case) and noticed how....perfect it was. I've only had the game since about a week before Christmas, but whoever had it before me took amazing care with the manual. It looks like I bought a brand new game. And even though my previous scanning attempts ended in complete failure, I decided to give it one more shot. And, well, I couldn't be happier. 600dpi scan that required no upsizing, just a large amount of shrinking.

Then I decided that I had an great image to work with, so why not give the vertical one a shot too? I saw that poll Shenske started about which people preferred, and saw the many complaints about how hard the vertical stuff was to work with. So, I found out for myself just how annoying it is, but also how much fun it could be. Unfortunately, my scan didn't just flop onto the area like it did before. Instead, I ended up with something that is far more custom, but I'm very pleased with it.

So, thanks for nagging me, because I'm very pleased with the results of it. However, please no more because I hate reposting the same covers over and over and over again. Here's "take 3," the final one for Threads of Fate.

The covers just get shown off here, most of them (if not all) are uploaded to the site and can be found along with the retail covers. If it qualifies as "old" then it's likely on the site already.

I know i checked there for some of the covers displayed here. Like this one for instance. http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=1058.msg17728#msg17728

Links are dead and these custom covers are not in the main site's directory  :'(

I found them for ya. It appears they were re-uploaded and/or had their file names changed. They are still in the "waiting for approval" batch of stuff.

To find covers between being uploaded by the user and being uploaded officially to the main site, it requires a little bit of either know-how or guessing. Upload limbo is located at
http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/ (http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/) and both LoM covers are there.

Obviously, they haven't been officially checked for quality, although you're probably safe in most cases.

I was going to upload a few raws for my topic in the request forum, but after I got them scanned in, I decided to give it a shot.  I have a bit of previous Photoshop experience, but this was my first attempt at making a game cover.  Not sure if it will meet the site's standards, but I was happy with it...

Edit:  Here's another one.  Feedback for the SmackDown! one as well as this one would be appreciated.

Here are three more that I've done, though I'm not sure how well they'll be received.  I opted for a white top/spine, as it is more true to the originals.  I'll wait to upload these to the site to see what you all think.   ;)

I think the "white top" versions for these games are appropriate because the originals were that way.  Could you also make black versions as well for the people who have them individually? Thanks

Great job on the covers btw

Yeah definitely like the white bar idea, I'd like to see that from some of the older 3-packs. Definitely want to keep the black bar alternative though.

Speaking of, why hasn't this site seen the crash bandicoot/spyro series yet? Those both came in 3-packs too and that would be something to consider.

I've yet to see any usable high res art. Also, the CB 3 pack only had one CB game, the other two were Crash Bash and Crash Team Racing.

However, I do have CB2, (GH) CB3, (Collector's Edition) CTR, (Collector's Edition and two GH lol) and CB (Collector's Edition and maybe GH?) Odd, the only PS1 CB game I don't have is Crash Bandicoot.

Since the PS1 was the first widespread disc based console, we handled our games badly and needed multiple copies. :-[

Yeah the PS1 was my first system, and sadly I sold a lot of games that I should have kept. I remember digging through hundreds of ps1 discs at a Gamestop the summer they stopped buying ps1 games for an hour or two just to find 3 spyro games. Snatched CB 2 & 3 from a friends house before he sold his ps1 collection. The disc of CB1 I have now is in pretty rough shape, but then again that's what you get when buying used months after the system dies out. And I used to have that game in perfect condition :/

lol I just remembered that I bought all black bar editions for FF8/9 and CB1 for a total of 10 bucks in a Gamecrazy bargain bin. Ah, gotta love when a system dies out. Now I'm buying used Xbox games like crazy (most all of them for under 10 bucks too, maybe a few are still in the 12-18 dollar range), even if I'm not going to touch them for months.

Nice stuff - I had intended to do covers like that myself as the original US retail ones looked horrendous, but I just never got around to it. The Capcom logos on the fronts look pretty huge, but other than that they look really good.


edit: Speaking of Capcom logos - they're missing altogether on your covers, the7k.

You can't scan that. I mean of course you could, but the result would look nothing like the real thing and 10 people would probably get 10 different results. It's the same issue with metallic and shiny covers. They reflect or absorb the light of the scanner during the sanning process and manipulate the image. It usually comes out darker than it should and the metallic look is gone entirely. I guess trying to scan a hologram would be even more troublesome with worse results.

If it were as simple as enlarging it to fit a DVD case, we would probably be done with the PS1 cases. Many covers don't scale well, so the procedures used vary a lot. Some covers do scale well, so for something like the front of Crash Bandicoot 2, all I had to do was scale it, center it, and move + recreate the logos that were at the bottom.

That was a pain in the ass, and that's probably as easy as possible for CD->DVD. Other times cover artists find art similar to the art on the front cover, and use that as a base for the DVD cover, and put the logos and whatnot over it. Sometimes they just find art that fits better to a DVD case, and use that. For the back, most of the time it's just retyped in a similar font, and then the screenshots + legal information is added. Spines are pretty much 100% custom, although for PAL I guess it's just the title on a white background.

seems ntsc ppl have more luck than us pal users with all sorts of crap over the covers for example:

(http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp328/feralicious/img012.jpg)

this is a scan of my shadowman front cover, notice the playstation and pal images in the top left corner that make things frickin annoying to remove, and scale the image to fit a dvd case well, easiest solution i can think of is making some sort of design where the original cover is kept as is inside a custom designed template, kinda like how the infogrames best of's are eg:

(http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61QA736211L._SL500_AA280_.jpg)

There's not really an easy way of doing it. Every PS game i have done, i have had to paint out logo's etc for them or paint in some missing bits. You might have to get inventive. Take a look over in the DC section at that Shadowman cover. Most of what you want removed will be missing on that one.

yeah - had the speccy version way back when.....  I think the only other decent one is TG16, and unfortunately i don't have one.  Am going to track down this version now though!

Good luck.  ;)

Just picked up NAMCO Museum 1-5.  Will scan as necessary when they arrive.  ;D

Retro heaven!!  ;)

Doesn't "Namco Virtual Arcade" for Xbox360 feature the same games as Namco Museum 1-5 and even more for a budget price?

When I get a 360 this month, the first game I'm playing is Pac-Man Championship Edition. When I saw that Namco Museum Virtual Arcade included it and was on sale for $15, I bought it. Includes:

Quote from: Amazon.com
XBLA

Galaga Legions, Pac-Man Championship Edition, Mr Driller Online, Pac-Man, Galaga, Xevious, New Ralley X,Dig Dug and Ms Pac-Man

This disc is worth the price for just these games since they're the classics and remakes that are really good of the classics. Each game is worth a total of 200 achievement points for a total of 1800 possible max points.

Museum Classics

Baraduke, Bosconian, Dig Dug II, Dig Dug Arrangement, Dragon Buster, Dragon Spirt, Galaga '88, Galaga Arrangement, Galaxian, Grobda, King & Ballon, Mappy, Metro-Cross, Motos, Pac & Pal, Pac-Man Arrangement, Pac-Mania, Pole Position, Pole Position II, Rally X, Rolling Thunder, Sky Kid, Sky Kid Deluxe, Super Pac-Man, and The Tower of Druaga.

It's $20 new on Amazon now.

Its actually from the back of the manual. The U.K front was a shot of deep space with the Wild 9 logo, very large in the middle. Inventive eh!! ;) Its still quite good fun to play now. I saw a copy in town today for 99p...what a deal.

Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread

That Legend of Dragoon cover is excellent!
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Thaddeus Grey on June 20, 2009, 09:55:41 AM
Thank you very much! I meticulously extracted that logo from a 19200 dpi scan I had made of the cover for the game, so I had hoped it would look sharp.... It's my goal with these covers to in a sense re-create the old covers in a new aspect ratio. If you look at the original Legend of Dragoon, PEII, and DDR cases, they look very very similar. All of the copyright info, game details, and screenshots are the same (or as similar as I could get) as the original. I would also like to mention that before last week I had no friggin' idea how to use Photoshop and through trial and error I taught myself. The Legend of Dragoon cover was my first attempt and I'm pretty dang proud of it, so thanks for the positive input!

Here are a few previews of some of my other covers (I'm away from my main PC, so I can't upload the full images yet, sorry):

Megaman 8:
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MM8.jpg)
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MM8ae.jpg)
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MM8gh.jpg)
And for this last one I edited a Saturn cover, it was just easier:
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MM8ace.jpg)
If I change anything about those it will be removing the anniversary stuff from the non-anniversary editions, make the side bar look more fluid with the front side of the cover, and/or make the text on the backside more visible. Any advice for what the text on the back should look like would be GREAT. I may just end up further editing the backside of the Saturn cover.

Megaman X5:
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MMx5.jpg)
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/MMx5alt.jpg)
Not sure how I like the logo on the first one. Probably gonna change that. But the second one I'm fine with.

Tekken 3 (ONLY because I couldn't download the horizontally oriented one by SMMM. I did use the back cover for Grumbleduke's vertically oriented cover, so I claim NO credit for the backside. I do plan, however, to recreate the back cover like I did the others):
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/Tekken3.jpg)
(http://i965.photobucket.com/albums/ae139/Tim_the_Ninja/Tekken3gh.jpg)

Any input is greatly appreciated! After I jack around with these others I will upload them and start on a Spyro the Dragon cover. Thank you for the input!
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Conn on June 20, 2009, 12:50:05 PM
I'd suggest making that group image on the back of the MM8 covers semi-transparent, or an outline, or something- it stands out a tad too much and makes the text hard to read.

There's some empty space on the back of those X5 covers... you should fill it with another screenshot or something. Also, I'm pretty sure that first X5 cover uses the cover for X8, so that's a tad awkward :x

Still, though, aside from that they're quite good!

You sir, are awesome. I think a little over  a week. And how do I make that bit transparent? My photohop knowledgebase is quite small. That cover for x5 I think is the ps2  collection cover :/ I used the pal version for the back cover, but I'm open for options.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Doom on June 20, 2009, 05:10:32 PM
What I would do (for Paint.NET, but the principles should be the same)

Create new layer
Make a white rectangle under the text
Layer properties
Opacity: 75-175/255

or

Layer the character art is on:
Opacity: 75-175/255

I'd prefer the first option because it's consistent with the text.

Doi, I did that with the PE2 cover, why didn't I think of that....   Again, the LoD cover is my very first Photoshop experience. ::)

Nice covers, M4TRIX.  I'm not skilled at photoshop and can't really give much photoshop tips, but my only and current suggestion would be to make MegaMan's boot go onto the spine of the cover and not cut off from the front, or make a version where his boot shows up.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Thaddeus Grey on June 20, 2009, 10:30:18 PM
Yeah, that's something I want to do and plan to do, but I have I find out HOW, per se. The boot wasn't on the original cover, so I'm going to try and make one. I won't be home for a couple days, but before I left I started wrapping around the spine what I could.

Updates on my future plans: I am going to start on a Spyro the Dragon cover and a Star Ocean 2 cover this week, but I'm not sure if I'm going to finish those or finish the others in progress first. I want to change up the PE2 cover just a bit and maybe make the backside more like the PAL backside, rather than the US version. I also want to alter the DDR case slightly, just to remove some dead space. I will find at least one new screenshot for MMX5 and possibly replace the ones already on there with some better looking ones. They were from a PAL scan I downloaded, and everything but the screenhots looks fine. Something to think about. :D

Okay, I fixed the MM8 covers, making a boot for Megaman and wrapping it around the spine, I fixed the DDR cover, AND I fixed the MMX5 covers as well. I'm still including the cover with the Megaman X Collection image because it looks cool, but the original with X and Zero only is preferred. Also included are the Star Ocean 2nd Story cover and Spyro the Dragon covers. w00t. Since my Photobucket account was overflooded, I will mainly just post links, but I will try to add in the photobucket photos of the previews as well. Sorry bout that. They really don't look too much different from the versions I posted last time, just with a few fixes really. Again, thanks for any input. I am new at this, ya know.

I think I'm done with the PS1 case scene. I might do more if I feel like it, but that covers the games that I personally own. the7k, I had instadrool when my eyes were laid on your MegaMan set. VERY nice.

the7k: Those Legends covers are fantastic! Makes me want to track them down even more now!

Why is Roll on the first spine, while Mega Man is on the second, though? It's hardly a big deal, and I could easily change it myself if need be, but it just seems like a strange design decision.

Matrix: Those small adjustments make the Mega Man covers look much, much better. The Star Ocean 2 covers look pretty nice as well.

I have to agree, now that I see it. But whatever is fine.

Thanks for the comments guys!

As for Roll being on the first one... it was just a preference. With the pictures I was using, Roll was just slightly smaller than Mega Man, and Mega Man was just slightly smaller than Tron - so I thought it would just satisfy the 'getting bigger as you go along' deal.

Of course, if you lined them up chronologically, then Tron would actually go in the middle...

Yo, I'm thinking I might change up the Legend of Dragoon and Megaman x5 covers a bit. I want to try and put the original cover art (of Dart, Sheena, and Rose) on the front (I think I know how to do it too without stretching anything out) and I have realized that my MMX5 scan for the front was a lower quality scan that I had (forgot where I had put the new one), PLUS I have another new art piece that would look AWESOME on the front. But this is just thought. Sound good? It'll be awhile before I get around to it, tho.

I thought maybe i had an asian version or something so when  it came to the cover, i went for the JP one instead.

I'm almost 100% sure it was.. I remember playing a 1st level demo but I'm not sure if it came with my Plantation, or if I got it from PSM.

You have a plantation? Haha, just kiddin. I made those LoD covers. Not easy. I really couldn't make any vertical ones w/o seriously messing the image up. What a shame. At least horizontal is the norm. And there is also that custom art for MMx5. My higher res scan ended up looking worse, so I decided to stick with the original. Here are the previews and junk. Woo.

Well, I'll give it my best shot. I'll probably have to use a gradient on the bottom to cover up some stuff. I'm sure I can make it look at least half-way decent, tho.

EDIT

Alright, this was the best I could do. I did have to use a gradient. Nothing else looked right. Both original and greatest hits.

I would have to agree. Very nice. There is a request up in the request forum for a custom Wii Tales of Symphonia: DotNA cover that is just screaming for that style. Artwork and title image provided. Could be worth a shot.

Nevermind, I see you already took after that. Well done.

Mr. Ben, I know I said I found the minimalist approach to be strangely appealing, but I feel you're starting to approach overdoing it... It's gonna lose it's effect ya know.

You should put more time into each of your covers I think, I've noticed a lot of errors and sloppy approaches (such as leaving the "information about publisher" filler text on the back of a few cases and simply using a scanned version of the ps1 back with filler artwork to fill out the back of a case).

You definitely have somewhat of a design sense, but you should really take your time more. The minimalist look is nice for some games (such as Dragon Valor) but doesn't seem to fit well for others (Such as Abe's Oddysee). I'm just saying don't rely on that approach too much, do what fits best for each game, and definitely try to spend more time making the backs of your cases look good.

Hope I don't sound like a jerk or anything, I just had to say it.

Mr.Ben, I think your cover style would fit perfectly with custom Wii covers, or WiiWare/Virtual Console covers if people are interested in them. Not to say that it doesn't suit other games too, some of these Playstation covers look really good.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: KaiserWAVE on July 18, 2009, 07:56:47 PM
I really like the minimalist approach. I don't think it loses its effect either. It's just a little hit and miss. When you have an all-white frontcover it brings much attention to the front artwork, which can make it very hard to choose the right image. But it's also a matter of personal taste I guess and other users might disagree with me.

Personally I really like your Abe's Oddysee, Dragon Valor, Worms, Bushido Blade and Jade Cocoon covers. They just click with me. I don't know exactly what it is but I think they're great. Although I think there are far better dragon images to use than the one on Dragon Valor but that is just lamenting on a high level :) All in all these covers are very good work!

On the other hand I think the frontcovers for Tales of Destiny 2, Vandal Hearts, Worms Armageddon and the Alundra games are very bland and very generic. Apart from Worms Armageddon there's so much artwork to be found on the net for these games for some really awesome covers. Right now they look very unspectacular and exchangable.

I'm not slamming your work Mr. Ben. You've put time and effort into this and I do appreciate it. I just wanted to give you some feedback which you can ignore or take into consideration on your future covers.

You betcha. It's FAR easier to make horizontal than vertical IMHO, but since Konami/Sony put out one in the vertical and none in the horizontal, I gotta go vertical for my personal collection. Pretty much what this means is that I'll be putting out a few vertical covers of games that I didn't make vertical covers for beforehand and some vertical ones for games that I do have but only have horizontal available for download.

Oh, and the7k, Star Ocean is the BOMB. You might have to shell out a few tho, especially since the PSP remake came out. Glad you like it  ;D.

EDIT

Here are a few Parasite Eve covers, mainly by request. I know they look a whole lot like Vt102's (especially the horizontal ones), but it was the best way to get an official-looking cover. I mainly did this for the vertical and thought "what the hell" and made the two horizontal versions. I only used a scan of the back side of the jewel case, one of the front, and the strategy guide (highest res image available, and already in a long-box style).  So here they are!

The image you used for the front looks pretty low rez, is it at least 300dpi image? I would advise replacing it with a high quality image. Please don't "stretch out" the back legal information on the back, just retype it ... it will look much better.  Other than that good job on your first cover.  :)

Hi, new here =) Just found out about all this and thought I'd give it a go. I'm hoping to get my entire PSone collection DVD-cased... but it's a NIGHTMARE finding hi res Ridge Racer Type 4 stuff!!

Anyway, here's my first:

(http://xs.to/thumb-4654_4B77C2A5.jpg) (http://xs.to/share-4654_4B77C2A5.html)

It's far from perfect, but it looks nice once it's in a case =) I sort of redid the logo because I didn't like the one from the real box. I'm thinking I should have left the flame off though, it looks a bit corny :-p Oh well!

I'm not a fan of the real life pics you used for the back but I love the filters and color scheme you used for the front. The font rocks too.

i have to agree with you about the back, i like how it came out and i like the images, i just wish i could have made them look a little cartoonier, the cartoon filter in gimp just didnt quite do the trick.   

Thanks btw front and spine came out just how i wanted

ok, so im assuming my wild arms 2 cover got rejected, im just wondering if i can get some insight about why. im pretty far along on the rest of the sereis, and i'd love to get all 6 of them uploaded.  so let me know what i can do to fix this one and ill be sure to avoid such mistakes in the future.

Nah, I'm guessing it was just taken down to be examined. It can be a surprisingly lengthy process. In my experience your errors need to be pretty glaring for them to not add it to the site, so don't worry.

Front looked pretty strange. Maybe overfiltered? Not pixelated but I dunno kinda blocky. I thought long about that cover because it looks really nice other than the front.
did the source of the front looked like that too? Was it high res? Maybe the source had a strong moire effect?

it was actually a filter to make it look like it was printed on canvas, i hit the filter by accident when working and kinda fell in love with it, but never added it to the first one cause it was already flattened/merged together.

so that weird look is intentional, and i kinda figured thats why it didnt go up. 

so ball is in your court on this one, if you think so i can remove it, and refrain from using it on the rest of my wild arms covers.

(i looks alot more canvasy printed than on the computer screen)

Is it really not common practice here to inform people if their submissions were rejected? It doesn't seem very helpful if you're just rejecting submissions (especially submissions by active members) and not informing them why via PM or whatever. Kinda makes it hard to fix up and send back to the site.

Another thing tiktetak, my comment mainly stems from the fact that I've downloaded covers from here that have had several minor errors, along with the fact that my own covers were accepted despite some worries of my own that some aspects may not be considered up-to-par.

It was intended as words of encouragement for Dejimus, not as some sort of veiled attack against you. I certainly don't appreciate a mod of all people attacking me for that.

I often see the true meaning behind peoples oh so friendly meant comments (or I believe to at least).
Sometimes it's the "scizophrenia" but only sometimes.

I'm sorry if you truly meant no harm but otherwise I stand for what I say!

I admit though that there are quite a few covers on our site which are not as good as the more recent stuff. This fact is due that the admin system and quality control wasn't all that strict and comprehensive in the past. You know in the beginning ONE person had to do all the adding stuff etc. and keep the site running as well.

About providing info for what has gone wrong with a cover. It is not that easy to inform I don't know how many people about what was wrong. If someone cars he is free to ask no problem but we can't tell everyone everytime. By the way in 90% of the cases stuff is rejected beacue it was either

from low res bad sources(blurry,pixelated,moire effect,stretched,etc.)
wrong dimensions
wrong legal text and barcode
Non existent(homebrew,etc.)

Ah, dang, I really like that Suikoden cover, (I was working on the same thing but with a white background like in Suikoden II), but I got 404'ed. Mind re-upping it?

EDIT: Oh wait, I see why that one was taken down: the ratings don't match. It should say K-A on both the front and back. Can't read the legal text to verify tho.

This is called a "persecution complex". I've seen you do this before, you may think you're "reading between the lines" and being clever but ultimately you're just attacking people unprovoked and making yourself look like a jerk. People aren't out to get you, it's best if you get over that.

I accept the apology but man you need to work on that.

No, I understand. It'd be good if with the 'created by', you could acknowledge another user if you've used their cover as the base. But I'm not sure how feasible it would be to set up.

I normally give credit to whoever I need to give credit to within the legal text or somewhere on the box. It feels right to me.

I imagine some people might still get ticked off - "OMG Why'd you use my art without permission!" - but at least I wouldn't be taking credit for it myself.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Thaddeus Grey on March 07, 2010, 04:05:43 AM
Yeah, the comment box would rock. Ah well. We shall wait and see. I would mostly put comments on my own stuff like about the creation process tho. And of course all credits due.

I made both vertical & horizantal versions both in gray & black. (black not pictured ... use your imagination ;) )

This one actually took a lot longer than i had originally anticipated ... there are NO screenshots for madden 2005 on the PSX except 1 rom site. You would think that a game with this kind of popularity would have at least a few screenshots floating around. I guess the PSX was basically dead at the time and the PS2 version was better but come on.

The back info is based off of the official MGS dvd cover release. Almost all of the artwork is from the xbox version we have on the site and the legal text is from the gamecube version we have on the site.

When all thats changed is some legal info to "switch" it to another region i think that the original artist's name should be on the cover. When I find some time I'll switch the artist name from Alex Philip to M47R1X because i too think that is unfair. Same thing with all the new Dreamcast covers that were submitted by Raven1280, they will be switched Lumberjack42. The only thing that was changed was spine color.

I thought about this some time before adding them. Ultimately I decided to leave the people who uploaded them even though I saw that they changed only minor stuff.

On second thought leaving the original authors would have been better maybe.

I was talking with tiktektak back and forth about some SNES covers I did for KaiserWAVE and that's when I threw those in. I told him they were conversions, but I guess I forgot to mention that in the forums. That was a long-ass time ago when I had first started all this biz (bout a month in to the whole deal) and didn't expect them to get posted as they would have had to start a whole new style of slimline DVD covers for the Sega CD, but apparently they did. It started for me as a way to get ALL of my games in one unified template that looked really good (Vt-102's slim template) and to get a good Dark Wizard cover (did that one ever get fixed?). I am glad that someone can use them (I had converted alot more for my personal collection, as no Sega CD manuals would fit in a standard DVD case anyway). Crap man, if I had known they would be posted then I would have thanked you at the proper time. But alas, late is better than never. THANK YOU for your work on the Sega CD covers and yes, all were modified. Damn, that was almost a year ago. When did those go up? I had done this with Saturn too, but I never uploaded them. A slim template instead of a standard template, but not MookyJooky's. I feel his is best for the J-Saturn games. Probably won't anytime soon.

EDIT: By the way, as far as I can remember, unless it was an SNES conversion for KaiserWAVE then I don't believe I have done any other conversions.

It is a smidge different though, as the Sega CD ones are from scans where the Spyro cover was "hand-crafted." But nonetheless, credit is due. nvm, douche statement.
 
EDIT 2: I went carreening through my PMs and found what I think was the conversation, but I guess our outboxes clear themselves out every now and then so I can't confirm. But it was definitely either Shenske or tiktektak. July of last year. I started in mid-June, so this was a beginner f%$^-up. As you can probably tell, this is really rattling me because here I am going off and then something that I did a long time ago bites me in the butt that I wasn't entirely aware of. And I try to be the nicest, most giving guy around, but I tend to f^&* things up alot. Not just at my own house apparently either. THANKS AGAIN Vt-102 for your awesome work on the under-appreciated Sega consoles. While I'm at it, I did some Parasite Eve covers (I did all the scans and all, don't worry, I wanted to make it "mine") for the vertical version, but I went ahead and threw out a horizontal version as well which looked a helluvalot like the one already on the site (which I believe was yours... poo). I did the work and I mentioned that bit in this thread, but still, if it passes QA it might be an issue. So if you don't hate me by now Vt-102, I'll just sit here and shut up about any of this. If you want to pull those Sega CD covers then by all means be my guest. Or (and I'm very serious about it here) change the names of those covers to Vt-102. Whoever can do that. I think it'll make everybody happy.

Quick question here for all people downloading PS1 covers: How many want my covers in the gray "PSone" theme? I can do it when I get the time.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: the7k on March 10, 2010, 05:59:50 PM
Well, I'm thinking that if I wanted to print some of the pre-existing covers in the gray PSone style, I could just get the template and paste the existing cover underneath the PSone template.

As such, I think it's a lot more important to just make sure there are vertical and horizontal styles. Anyone who wants to change it up could do so easily. Even if you didn't have access to Photoshop, you could just download the cover you want, download a cover in the style you want, then cut and paste.

Same story as the previous covers (Vertical & Horizantal, Gray & Black).
I couldn't find any NTSC scans at all for this game but i did run across some nice PAL scans so i decided to use what i could from those. I had to do a fair deal of cleaning to the images but it came out well. These covers will replace my terrible quality one currently on the site (it snuck in somehow before i was even a member and our quality standards were so high). CB3 is in my top 5 favorite PS1 games!  ;D

@JerActor

You just stretched out the back part of the cover to fit didn't you? Please don't do that, just stretch things at aspect ratio (aka holding down shift) so it doesn't get warped. I don't want to get you too discouraged but we really frown upon stretching images so they "fit" the new area. 95% of the time when converting a PS1 cover from a jewel case to a dvd it requires a complete rebuild because the original images don't come close to fitting.

Here is a link to the PS1 template to get you started

Just got six PS1 games at a flea market. Unfortunately, none of them have covers posted to the site (or at least, don't have covers posted in Vertical format, which I use)! Luckily, I've got the complete package for all of them, and 4 out of 6 of them are in Long Box format.

Nope, the cover looks great. It just takes some time for the covers to be added to the site. I would go into greater detail but i've said the process many times before ... to sum it up it just takes a while.

Spine text/logos for Beast Wars, Beyblade, Reboot and Wild Arms 2 vary from blurry to extremely blurry.
There are akward black lines next to some of the spines for Dragon Seeds, Worms and a weird white line on the spine for Reboot.
Also, where did you get your scans? Some of the scans have some pixelation problems, blurry and moire effect.

Sorry to be so picky but thats the quality rules of TCP

Your Tiger Woods 99 covers have very pixelated scans for the front and back. I see how you replaced some logos to try and make it cleaner but the original images are not high rez enough to start with.

Sorry to be so picky but thats the quality rules of TCP

the black lines are how the covers are. i'm getting the scans from my own games, 400dpi.  also not really sure what you mean by blurry spines?  i've printed them all and they are perfectly clear ?   only thing i can think that you'd be thinking of is on beyblade the bottom corners of the title on the spine fades out, which is out it appears on the actual case.
Also not sure what you mean by pixelation problems as they are all clear and high res?

i figured since they dont exist on the site at all, and they are of good quality (especially compared to this twisted metal 3 cover that when printed the text is not legible http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1320) that it would be helpful to put it up at least until something better comes along....

dont take this as trying to be rude or flame or anything, i have the highest respect for the work/quality of work you produce, i'm just not understanding how these covers are so bad that they cant be used in the mean time until someone puts up something better....i mean come on, look at that twisted metal 3 cover lol, and theirs a bunch more like that :s
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread

@shenske & tiktektak

I can kinda see where Jonesat comming from with his opinion. I understand you guys want nothing but good quality covers and thats what makes this place so great. But at the same time, there is a bit of lower quality stuff around here that Im assuming was added a good while back when there probably wasnt a whole lot in the database yet. Alot of which Ive been very happy to use. Yes I would much prefer a higher quality cover but it definetly does the trick for the mean time. Like Shenske's Twisted Metal 3 cover. Im assuming that was something you probably whipped up a while back to do the trick for the time beeing. Im not saying you should accept complete grabage covers that are not worth anyones time but Im sure alot of these covers would be great to use untill something better is produced.

Maybe a neat way to sort out the good from the bad is to have two sections under each console. Maybe something like "High Quality Covers" & "Rough Covers". At the same time artists would be more easily able to view the list of covers in that database that could still use a Higher quality cover. Then once a better one comes in, scrap it from the database.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: shenske on April 12, 2010, 02:25:57 AM
That Twisted Metal III cover i made is 100% complete garbage! Before i even became a member (3+ years ago) i uploaded those covers. Our quality standards were not what they are now. That cover should not be on the site at all. There are other covers like that on the site too but we can't remove covers ... only replace them.  The reason why it has never been replaced is because no one elsehad made a cover for it yet.

Please don't think this is oneof those hypocritical "do as i say, not as i do" kind of things.  I understand why you canbe upset that the covers you have made may be better than some of the other covers that are currently on the site but the ones you are comparing to (like the TM3 cover) shouldnt be on the site in the first place.  

I don't think you understand the purpose of TCP with our covers. I do understand that your covers are better than nothing but we don't host covers on the site simply as placeholders untill something better comes along.  Its better to fix the mistakes the first time so there is a good cover right off the bat when it gets hosted.
 
By blurry spine i mean that you most likely took the orignal text from the spine of the CD case and blew it up. When this happened it made the spine text very blurry. Someof the other spines like Wild Arms 2 you used a very low rez pixilated logo from the net and blew it up to fit the spine.

 Here is some parts from your covers that i am talking about.  Imageshack resized the image smaller so the flaws are not as evident. Covers should have consistant quality even when you zoom in.  The akward black lines i was refering to is from the two images you merged for the front, back and spine. You didnt trim out the excess black space. The top left shows some of the pixelation and moire effect i was talking about and the spine logos should speak for themselves when i say that they are blurry.
(http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/5202/junkg.jpg)

Your covers are not "so bad they can't be used" I pointed out all of these things so that you could fix them.  I'm not intending to sound like a jerk i was justtrying to clarify whati am saying and why the covers under their current state can't be hosted on the site.

You know shenske this is exactly why I do not bother to explain the reasons to everyone why their covers got rejected.

It just leads to discussions which are unnecessary.

As shenkse said we got strict quality restrictions on our site. Even though there are covers on here from a long time ago which are sub-par this doesn't mean we would ever host sth like those again.

So there are two options.

Be grateful that shenkse invests his time to tell you what should be redone to get the covers accepted.

Leave them as they are and those covers will be rejected.

Got it? ::)

Leave them as they are and those covers will be rejected.

Got it? ::)

You know shenske this is exactly why I do not bother to explain the reasons to everyone why their covers got rejected.

It just leads to discussions which are unnecessary.

As shenkse said we got strict quality restrictions on our site. Even though there are covers on here from a long time ago which are sub-par this doesn't mean we would ever host sth like those again.

Don't you know me by now AppleQueso? ;D

I'm not the friendliest person around especially if some people won't understand what this is all about (or they don't want to care).

I'm grateful for every contribution but just if it's in a state which is useable.

You know after years of being part of this great project I've seen soooooo many people come and go and so many sub-par covers posted that I'm starting to get angry fast when people upload not ok stuff and then even won't listen to what people in charge have to say.

Even worse people tend to not read all the guides and stuff but just do and upload.


EDIT: Just for the record. Most of the covers on our site have been uploaded by a handful off people. Talking about all the people who contribute...

lol  ;D maybe it could be more then a handful of people then if you dont get angered quickly and get rude with them...feedback is the only thing that helps people get better at what they do.   i was getting discouraged to not bother to contribute anymore, and thanks to shen going into more detail showing what the actual problems were specifically it has gotten me back to wanting to try again.  i'm sure alot of times you get people who you tell what they did wrong, and they just keep repeating the exact same problems over and over again, then yeah i can understand you feel pissed off and like its a waste of time to talk to them, but then theirs others like myself, and i dont believe my covers were a total p.o.s. and waste of time, and now that i actually got some personal guidance i can actually spend more time and fix the problems that i do, and learn to be better from it.

That being said, maybe you should get someone else on staff to try and give feedback to people when they can afford the time to, and that might help out more so the quality of covers being submitted and fill in alot of the holes.  Art isnt really something you can learn 100% perfect the first time from reading a general forum post, its a skill to be developed by people who put the time and effort into it ;)

I totally agree with you. If you look closely the same art from the PAL cover is what is found on the inside of the cd insert which is what I used for the background image for the back.

as I how much that I do like the original black spined "Playstation", I am very fond of your grey "PSone" label also.  However, I think that it would be hard... grr what am I trying to say.  It will be wierd placing Madden 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 in grey spines and then having the black PS2 spines next to them.  Would stick out.  If I were to stick my PS1 games with themselves, that would look awesome, however I would more than likely stick my Final Fantasy series together.  Don't get me wrong, I really like it  :)

Hm I've been thinking about switching a lot of my covers to your PSone template, 'cause I integrate all my PS1 and PS2 games, and people often mistake all of them for PS2 games. Might as well differentiate them like I do with all my games in DS cases :)

To celebrate getting some new ink for my printer I made some new covers, but until the upload starts working again, I'll have to tease you all with some previews. I updated Broken Sword/Discworld 1 & 2. The front of Final Fantasy 8 is from VBeniaminov's upload, FF7 covers were made from Grumbleduke's upload and the front of Fear Effect 1 is from VertigoXX's upload. PS1 template by shenske.

I'm not to happy with the wcw mayhem cover, I may need to do an update.

Like AppleQueso said, the UK's (I don't have a clue about the rest of the PAL territory) platinum games are silver. Also, I forgot to give you credit for the great template, sorry about that.

Thanks man. They're not the best, but they're the best I can do with my limited skills. I'm making these covers for me and I live in the UK so I deleted all of the US parts of the PS1 template. Also I'm a lazy f*cker. I'm sure it won't take to much effort to make the US version for yourself once I can upload these.

Giving me credit isn't necessary but i'm glad you like the template  :)
The gray made a lot more sense once AppleQueso pointed that out. I'm totally cool with you using the gray/silver for the platinum games, i was just worried that you were straying from consistency but it works  ;)

I agree, but can see why people would want them - anyone who has defected from xbox to PS, and doesn't have PS2 cases, might want their few PS1 games in PS3 style - though about knocking up a template, but never got around to it.

Hello,

I just recently joined the forum and posted a request topic for Playstation 1 game covers (mostly RPGs)

Just curious if anyone is willing to make Standard DVD PS2 Style Covers (U.S. version) for any of the following games:
Thank you in advance for your wonderful work 

Bushido Blade (the first game, not the second)
Saiyuki: Journey West
Suikoden 1 (Please redesign in the Playstation 2 style)
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=10605
Tales of Destiny 2
Vandal Hearts
Vanguard Bandits
Wild Arms 1(redesign in the Playstation 2 style)
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=10606
Wild Arms 2

Description: Custom Cover (Playstation 2 style)
Format: NTSC
Region: United States
Case Type: DVD Case - Standard



The addition of these covers would help flesh out the Playstation 1 RPG cover collection  :) 

Thank you to all the incredible artists who have labored over the amazing covers on this site.  Your work is tremendously appreciated!
:D

Maybe the PS1 can get a little love on the next batch of uploads!  ;) I remember uploading covers for games like Bloody Roar 1 & 2, Tenchu 2 and Tekken 2 before the server change. Are those still sitting in the cue?

I'm in the process of working thorugh our whole upload queue at the moment now that I finished the most important part (retro less n64).

Will take some time but sooner or later in the near future you will see. ;D

One of the many comments that come through for the megaman covers badchad is first of all, very very nice.  But can you make a matching spine for X6?  Seems a lil out of place

Perfect. Thanks shenske. I thought it looked out of place too but couldnt find a good enough logo to use since the edges are cut off on the actual retail cover. Ill definetly fix up the X6 spine with this later.

EDIT: Ok, re-uploaded X4, 5 and 6 with the new spine logo. Should all be nicely lined up together too  ;D

Yeah if you ever need a logo or art just let me know, never know i may have it. Since i don't have as much time as i used to to make covers I don't have a problem helping others with what i have found. I don't even want to admit how much time i've spent through the internet to find my 44.8gigs of high rez cover images.  :o

I didnt really know where els to post this and I wasnt going to open a new thread to ask so Ill just post it here.

@tiktektak - Im not sure if everything from the queue has been cleared out yet but out of everyhting I submitted the only covers I havent noticed approved yet are my Alunda 2 and Mega Man X6 cover for PS1 and Dungeons & Dragons Collection for the saturn. If for whatever they didnt get approved Id like to know what the issue was so I can fix it and get those covers up. Thanks!

For D&D Collection this was a JP only release so a US cover is kind of unnecessary or better said until our discussion what we want on the site and what not is concluded (it's running in the secret coverproject lab) this is "on hold".

The other two to be honest I don't remember anymore. You can always be sure that it had sth to do with qual. Especially because I have very high expectations of someone who almost always produces absolutely astonishing work! Could be that it just was sth small.


EDIT: Took a look at those two again.

Mega Man X6 has two characters on the back which look at little bit low res too me (or blown up too much). The screens also look a bit strange on the back. Maybe also a little bit too low res.

On Alundra the front has some unclean spots and a extremly bad moire effect which means it should be rescanned with the proper settings turned on.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: BadChad on October 19, 2010, 10:44:41 AM
I kinda figured thats what the issue was going to be with the D&D cover so I guess well just have to wait and see what happens.

Yeah the picture on the back of X and Zero was the best one I could find online. I wouldnt really be able to preserve the one from the retail cover. I guess Ill try and fish through the net again and see if I can find a higher res version of that pic.

As for Alundra 2, I think I might of applied my filters on the front after I already sized it to the cover so that might be why the moire is so strong. I scan all my raws under the same setting and my scanner doesnt have any fancy features for descreening or anyhting so Ill try reworking that front from scatch again and see what happens.

Thanks tik!

I am missing only a few covers for my collection... if anyone could help locate or make them that would be wonderful :)

Alundra
Alundra 2
Guardian's Crusade
Intelligent Qube
Mega Man X6
Tactics Ogre
Vanguard Bandits
Vib-Ribbon (very wishful thinking on my part but would be cool to have)

and if it is possible, I love this wildarms cover http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1252  but all my cases have the horizontal playstation not the vertical, is it possible to flip it?

I see some floating around here and there in 3d models, and either they are never uploaded or were removed or something I just never can seem to find them :(
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Velmeran on November 02, 2010, 09:51:45 PM
Could you possibly provide some scans of the original cases / manuals?

I know a few on that list are fairly pricey to track down if someone doesn't own them (I'm personally trying to track down a complete copy of Tactics Orge but have refused the prices the last couple I've seen go for)

aw man, i dont have the computer i did the wild arms covers on... so i dont have any of the .psd files, so i cant flip it easily,

i did all 5 or 6 games in that style a while back and lost all the originals, i also did one for suikoden and a few others that i never posted (20 something dynasty warriors covers all with matching spines.. looks epic)

huge tragedy when that sucker kicked the bucket.


on a happier note if i have the time im planing a Vangard bandits cover  ( ill do horizontal)  Sick game BTW

Quick (off topic-ish) question. In the U.S, are PS longboxes more sought after/collectible than jewel cases where both exist(Resi for instance) or not?
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: BadChad on January 02, 2011, 06:16:55 PM
I couldnt say, but Id imagine the longboxes would be considered less valuable. I can certainly say if I had the choice between the two, Id definetly take a jewel case over one of those horrible longboxes anyway! Plus from a collecting standpoint, their ugly as shit! ;)

I quite agree. Thay sit right away in the top corner of my shelving along with the Sega CD/Mega CD (90% of the PAL MCD games are in double jewel cases...also ugly) EA Saturn games (they had to be different..big and horrible)and the humungous 3DO longboxes (another 90% stat here).
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: AppleQueso on January 03, 2011, 12:55:37 AM
I'd say they're pretty collectible, just because there weren't that many of them and it's entirely possible to get a complete set.

I agree too. US Saturn and US Sega CD cases are damaged sooooo often and are almost impossible to replace! I don't like the DVD case way either because I want my manuals together with my games.

3DO longboxes are the most ugly game packaging I ever came across. Huge, easily damaged often with a kind of strange closing mechnism and with really big manuals too. They're a horror to store.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: AppleQueso on January 03, 2011, 05:49:33 AM
The fact that they're so easily damaged and difficult to replace is what makes them MORE valuable really.

I'm going with DVDs for Sega CD and Saturn games just because of how easily damaged the jewel boxes are, I'm keeping the original cases put up.

Just wanting some feedback on my Pal PS1 Slim Bluray Case template (made to suit my own use) Sticks to the pal format of PS1 games but mixes some of the PS3 game case in it, so both game cases fit together on the shelf spine wise. The back black strip is going to be a standard template, so only the back image scan will be fit in so all games are the same and cut down some of the random stuff that is on it, eg different age rating labels, company logos, i just wanta keep it nice and clean.

Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: sheep2001 on February 07, 2011, 07:41:53 AM

Only downside is im using all retail scans and those are all built into the retail covers, i was trying to keep the artworks on front and back as retail as possible, doing that would mean taking them out and rearranging the cover making it not so retail.

@noclass_nick
The back of your cool boarders cover looks stretched out vertically.  I understand you are trying to use the retail scans but please don't distort the images.
I also think that these cover would be better suited in its own thread. This thread is for PS1 DVD covers and the bluray covers don't fit.

Tik, time to get back on the ball!!

I was never really into PS and newer stuff.

My retail cover heart beats for NES,SNES,Mega Drive and the likes. I can't produce as many covers anymore as before though cause I'm the main site publisher (=Cover checking Admin) I think.

So checking and publishing takes away much of my cover creating time although I have to say that I really like the cover-quality-control job. ;D Heck even now when the uploads are down I've asked people to send me their stuff so that I can check and add it to the site. Why do you think there have been so many new covers by non-cover-admins on the site even though the uploads are down?

So think then talk!

But now i am good with gimp and have learned a lot. The cover is custom/trying to be close to retail but was hard to do with only having the cd covers to work with. Also thanks to Shenke for providing awesome templates to work with.

Unfortunately the artwork you used is too low resolution. :(

If you scanned it yourself, re-scan it with higher DPI. 300 minimum but to leave yourself editing room use 600 DPI.
Also make sure that the de-rasterization/de-screen/moire remover is on (which I think these images had).

Otherwise nice cover but bad moire effect.
So the scans need to be rescanned with descreen/derasterization on.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Stickasaurus on June 16, 2011, 02:08:11 PM
I see, here this one I used Shenske's poly case cover for his scans, as they seemed better then the ones in the raw section, if these still arn't good enough i'll dig out my case and scan them myself :)

http://www.mediafire.com/imageview.php?quickkey=m7ej797mhc1r2mx&thumb=6

As for the darkness, i'm not sure, this one seems darker as the blacks are more black then the previous, comparing it to the retail i'm holding in my hand they are the same shade pretty much again let me know!
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Arseen on June 16, 2011, 02:26:16 PM
Better.
The moire effect is way less noticeable when at print size, but I still think that you should  scan your cover and make the cover perfect.  :)
And remember: Back images need improvement too.

As the darkness/brightness, those are at good levels, so no need to alter those. :D

Post by: Stickasaurus on June 16, 2011, 07:17:36 PM
it seems my scanner has no easy way to remove moire but this is the  best i got, i think the one before this was better but i'll leave it up too you and unless someone has some hires good raws idk what more i can do xD http://www.mediafire.com/i/?owidfrc731gnstt

I do like the idea, but there lie problems with using PS3 style cases.

1) They are not readily available like DVD or Poly Cases
2) Multiple Discs can not be held in a PS3 case

there is a solution if you want to make uniform cases from PS1 to PS3, and that would be DVD sized covers.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Arseen on July 03, 2011, 03:05:15 AM
3) this leads to that you want to re-case PS2 games to match, and PS2 manuals won't fit.

Come to think, your 1) is partially flawed assumption. They are actually easier to buy than poly cases, least in europe I can point you in exact web-site to buy from, they should ship to outside of Europe aswell, altough it will cost pretty penny.

Hmm, I just looked it up, and yea they have em on Amazon. 5 for $10....though none of the covers on the site are made to fit PS3 cases...it seems, but BD sized ones...I could be wrong.

it seems that bluray cases and ps3 cases are the same size in uk, only difference is ps3 cases contain PLAYSTATION 3 on the case depending on the age.

anyways i designed the cases with the intent of space saving in mind and thought that it would be easy to find a folder of some sort that you could store the manuals in but i havn't found any yet

Nope, UK too has the blue blue-ray movie cases that are bit narrower than the clear Playstation 3 blue-ray cases.
Height ang width are the same.

for the second problem, the multiple disc games could be resized to fit bluray cases, and the ones that come with the 2blurays,dvd and digital copy could be used to house them (i can only think of a couple 4 disc games and i cant think of any that used 5 or higher

Maybe my not perfect English but: Resize WHAT?  ???

Not 100% sure but Myst might have been the only game that came on 5 discs.'

Besides you can store the discs 2+ in papersleeves inside the case. I know not perfect but OK.

what i meant to say is , the case could be designed for ps3 case dimensions then resized to the bluray case dimensions if it makes it any more clear (fyi i think i woke up 10 maybe 15 minutes prior to typing that message with 3 hours sleep lol)

Again, I suggest using our PS1 template. For one, well actually host your covers if their up to quality. And for two, I dont think anyone would be too interested in printing out covers that arent going to match up with all the PS1 covers they already have printed out made with our template. Were consistence freaks around here.
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: djb1ge on February 16, 2012, 06:34:32 AM
I understand, but I tried using the PS1 template & it nearly crashed my computer. It may have to do with the fact that I use Paint.NET & not Photoshop. I find that the template is unnecessary anyway. I took a cover from this site & used it as a base for all of mine.

Also, the picture shown here is only a preview & was re-sized by Photobucket. The Mediafire link has the proper dimensions & dpi.

Shenske your original post says you need to do an ultimate Mortal Kombat 3.

If you still need to do it, the original vector (though it's been rasterized, it's still high-res and in seperate layers) for the UMK3 logo and the original high-res bitmaps of the "skeletons" can be found here.

http://www.mediafire.com/?sqge62q5qb00s42
It's from a release of the UMK3 Saturn/PSOne/3DO source code.

I think I am looking at the same picture(s) as Shenske...  Where is this "quality" that you state is there?  I can only read the names of the vehicles BECAUSE I played the game religiously.

Auger Looks like AOJER
Minion Looks like Nexion
Outlaw Looks like Cutlaw
Roadkill Looks like Noverill

Does that say TruPhysics or TryPhysics? 

When Shenske states "Quality", he is referring to our cover standard "guidelines" on what is passed onto the site, and what is referred to as "complete garbage".  As Yoda would say : "Put it nicely, Shenske did" 

1) Don't Stretch Covers, they always look terrible.
2) Use 300 DPI, your pictures are currently 72
3) If you cannot achieve 300 DPI, try try try try try try try try try to make the text alteast, somewhat, possibly readable

Indeed they are great custom amateur covers, however there are so many flaws. 

**I did not alter your picture in anyway, and it is far from being full sized

There is something wrong with the dimensions.

For example FF8 is 300DPI which is perfect, but the size is 17 by 11 CM or 6.8 by 4.3 inches
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: Umbra on August 26, 2012, 03:23:53 PM
Now that is peculiar, since when opened in photoshop the size is 10.75 by 7.2 as it should be. (11.2 in the case of FF8)

I would assume that it may be something with flickr. All of the base images before upload are the correct size.

The text in the legal info box is jaggedy and the accessory logos are low quality butthat too might be from the upload.

Otherwise they look good, altough I reserve the right to bitch about them when I get perfect look, but I doubt nothinmg major pops up. ;D

I've done a few PS1 covers, but these are the only three I uploaded to my site.  Will get the others up later.

I'll warn you that the game data might be off (ex: WC3 is NOT 1 or 2 players).  I need to fix that.

If anyone has requests, I'm happy to do them, as PS1 covers are my favorite to do.  Once they're done, and I get enough positive feedback on them (i.e., they are up to standard), I'll upload them to the finished covers.  As it is, I know that I need feedback first.

I haven't seen a vertical for this game yet, and since it's one of the covers on the list of the ones I need, I just did it myself. I used a raw scan found here, since my own raw scan was pretty terrible.  Not much else to say about it; making this cover was a pretty straightforward process. Please take a look and give me some feedback.

Also, I realize this is a serious necro-post, but this seemed like the best place to put this cover. If I've resurrected this thread in error, I'm very sorry.

Here's another piece in my personal collection that had no DVD-sized cover until now. I tracked down the original old-style, first-release hard case for this game and scanned the back to help make this cover. I don't think this will ever be good enough to actually be site-worthy (since my scanner is a fickle little bitch), but since no one else has ever uploaded decent raws to work with, this is as good as it's going to get from me. Sorry it's not better, but if you'd like to use it anyway, you're more than welcome to.

While I wait for scans to start rolling in for my other project, I thought I'd keep myself busy by performing a quick fix on the most-downloaded FFVII cover on the site. The one that's up currently is missing information from the back cover and instead has text saying stuff like "Blah Blah Company at 123 Fake St. Etc." So I filled in the missing info, corrected the UPC graphic and number, corrected a typo on the spine, added some more company logos to the back and moved icons around for aesthetic purposes, and most notably, replaced the logo on the front with a much higher-quality one that I rebuilt this afternoon from various sources. The text on the spine is also derived from this new logo.

I've also provided a Greatest Hits variant for those who want it.

Cheers; hope you enjoy.

EDIT (08/06/13): I updated the cover and spine logos slightly, and corrected the ESRB info on the back of both the standard and Greatest Hits covers to more accurately reflect the proper data on each.

Hi guys! I'm new here, and this is my first custom cover, so it's not perfect. (There's no barcode.) I have the Playstation version of the game, and the "Jewel" casing has fallen on some hard times. I planned on moving it over to a DVD case, but I needed an inlay for the game. There was none, so I decided to make my own. Let me know what you guys think!

Post by: shenske on June 25, 2013, 11:44:42 AM
Why do you have the NTSC U/C logo on the spine at the top of the cover next to the ps logo?  Should be at the bottom for NTSC releases, only PAL does that. The colors seem a bit faded, try adjusting the brightness and contrast settings to enrich the colors. 

Other than that not too bad for a first cover  :)

I'm sorry if this is sort of an old topic but I couldn't find relevant stuff with search. I've been thinking of putting my PS1 games in DVD cases (mostly due to space issues) but what's a good solution to multi-disc games like the Final Fantasy series? Does a 4 disc DVD case have the same spine dimension than a normal one, or do I have to edit the covers manually? Anyone have a good type of DVD case they use for Final Fantasy games?
Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: AxelSteelBMX on June 28, 2013, 11:34:07 AM
I'm just the guy to ask, as I just recently did this myself. :D

There are 3 AND 4-disc DVD cases available that match a standard DVD case's dimensions just fine; I just ordered a few of each to box up my own PS1 multi-disc games, specifically my copies of FFVII (3 discs), FFIX (4 discs), Parasite Eve (3 discs), and Super Adventure Rockman (3 discs). I cased them all up using unmodified TCP covers (save for Super Adventure, which I still have to make myself).

Most 3-disc cases will have a standard DVD spot on the inside back, in the normal place you'd expect to see one, and the other two discs being stored on a hinged insert. These kind usually also have the tabs on the inside front cover to hold manuals and the like. The 4-disc types that I ended up buying have places for disc on the front inside, the rear inside, and a hinged insert that holds the other two. These kind do NOT have tabs for manuals since there's a disc in the way on the inner front. However, there are also versions which feature overlapping disc slots which hold two discs on the inner front and two discs on the inner back, and do not feature a hinged insert. I have not yet seen a 4-disc DVD case that has tabs for manuals.

I bought mine at Square Deal Online (http://www.squaredealonline.com). I went with them because they're geographically close to where I live, plus you can only order a small quantity of them depending on what you need (I bought 5 each of 3 and 4-disc cases). They're pretty cheap, and the quality is quite good, at least from what I received. Below are the links to the exact products I bought:

3-Disc DVD Cases (https://www.squaredealonline.com/a.asp?s=YwF)
4-Disc DVD Cases (https://www.squaredealonline.com/a.asp?s=pjF)

That site also has replacement Blu-Ray, Wii (white DVD case), PS3 (clear Blu-Ray case), XB360, GameCube (2-disc variant) and DS cases for sale.

...Wow, I just realized that almost came off as an advertisement. I am NOT affiliated with those guys, but I had a good experience with them, so I wanted to let you know. Cheers.

Thanks for your input. Although if I want to order, I'll have to find a store here in Finland that delivers. If I order 5 pieces of 4-disc cases, they cost 2 $ but shipping overseas is 26 dollars... ouch

Like I did a few weeks back with the touched-up FFVII cover, I've done the same treatment to the FFVIII cover that suffered from a lot of the same problems: "123 Fake St., Company logo goes here and blah blah..." has been replaced with legitimate copyright info, cover and spine logos have been replaced with higher-quality versions that I rebuilt this afternoon, UPC has been corrected and replaced, and more. I've also made a Greatest Hits variant for those who want it, but be warned that the ESRB info on the back may not be accurate (I noticed today that the FFVII GH retail has different data, and I'm unsure whether FFVIII is the same way).

EDIT: After researching, it seems the Greatest Hits ESRB data should read the same as black label, so the GH cover should be fine as-is. Cheers.

Beautiful work.
Has anyone made a cover for Quake II for playstation 1?

Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: AxelSteelBMX on August 07, 2013, 09:14:24 AM
Thanks. As far as Quake II, it looks like UmbraPhasmatis posted a Quake II cover back on page 77, but that was almost a year ago, and the link is now down:

Did anyone happen to snag that one? Alternately, UmbraPhasmatis, can you re-up the file?

Alright folks, you know the drill by now. This was a pretty popular cover for FFIX, but it had some problems, so I gave it a makeover and added a Greatest Hits version. I know that there are more popular covers (for FFVIII as well), but I like the visual layout of these three covers, so I thought it was worth fixing them. I may do something along these lines for the other PS1 Final Fantasy releases, but I'm as yet undecided on this. I'll continue to consider it, but for now this little mini-project is done. Thanks for the compliments, and keep an eye out for my next submission.

Here's a couple of covers. The Castlevania covers on the site are horrible. I took one of them and cleaned it up. So, I didn't make this cover, just cleaned it up. However, I noticed that Gran Turismo 2 didn't have an NTSC cover and the PAL look terrible so I made one from scratch. I uploaded it to the site. I guess we'll see if it passes the eye of scrutiny.

@RafaPunk
I'd say first upload them to a box or mediafire account. I can take a look at them to see if they are, but the final wordwould be from a Cover Admin.
For a game not on the list, post it to the game above or below where it should be. They will probably take a while to be added by a admin, if they meet the standards.
For now, upload to Box or Mediafire so people can download the full cover from here.

A suggestion . . .
I'd say for Skullmonkeys, you should probably use different art. That art is more for The Neverhood 1.

Your cover is 96 DPI, the covers going to the site need to be 300DPI.
Your cover is done from low rewolution image, the covers on our site need to be done from minimum of 300DPI raw material.

-> No way is the cover be posted on our site.

But as a placeholder the cover looks decent, so thank you for sharing. 8)

Looks much better.

Front looks bit bad.
Playstation scans have tendensy to come out bad (I mean looking grainy), so don't know can it be bettered.
Maybe some Photoshop wizard can try to better the front image to look less pointy..

Will it pass, I don't know.
Playstation stuff is tricky.

Big thank you.

I prefer the original, the second looks even grainier (and darker).

Could some Photoshop wizard voice in and tell if they hasve any suggestion to lessn the grainyness without too much detail loss, or voice in to tell that nothing else can probably be done.

Like Isaid PS stuff is tough as any scan looks bad.

Title: Re: PS1 Cover Thread
Post by: sheep2001 on May 17, 2014, 02:25:21 AM
Selective stretching. Can help.  Ie, stretching only parts of the image that aren't  going to be noticed.  Like empty space, or sky.

Redrawing.  You might have to redraw bits at the top and bottom of the image , to make it a rectangle rather than a square.

Crop the sides of the image.

With the ps1, the best way is to look for the same image, already converted.  For instance sega Saturn boxes.  A lot of the time the same artwork was used, but the Saturn box is already closer to DVD size.

Hey everyone. I just finished making my first PS1 dvd custom cover. it's for Jade Cocoon. I saw there wasn't one for this game so I decided to give it a go. I'm not an expert at photoshop but I think it came out "alright". What do you all think? Thanks again

Btw, I was trying to upload the image but this game isn't listed in the drop down menu for me to upload. Any ideas anyone?

Got another one for you guys...This time it's Blasto. It was really hard to make this one because there are hardly any images on the net for this game which is sad. This game is really awesome! Do you think the back cover looks too "stretched"? It's the best I could do unfortunately :/

Just made a custom PS1 cover for 007: The World is Not Enough.

It's my first full custom cover, and my first PS1 cover as well, so looking for some advice here (mainly on the back).

OK - well waiting for my copy of Wipeout 3 special proved fruitless, as it turned out to be the dual pack with Destruction Derby 2 - great to get the game, as my original went walkabouts a long time ago, but it means the cover was rubbish - just a tiny thumbnail and an unusable back.  So i went for a 100% custom - and i kinda like it:

And the obligatory group shot:

It does look really stretched..  You could add a banner to the top of the back with the "BLASTO" logo..   Kind of like this cover does for "the Warriors"..  That will let you unstretch the majority of the image.

Had to use a custom-made back for it since the way everything lines up on the retail version makes it really difficult to get a good image without stretching or losing parts of the image.

If you are asking for everything made by one particular member, you would probably be better off sending them a private message.  If you are asking for the 3rd time if you can download everything from the site (presumably for an emulation machine, or a stack of pirates discs, ooar me hearties) then consider this a gentle warning.  We don't support piracy.  We don't provide cover packs. We don't have the bandwidth. We are MOSTLY collectors of original games, for play on the original hardware.

Edit.  Or are you just wanting to get all the free artwork made by site members in order to make some money out of it?

Wait, you want one cover for those 4 games?  Isn't that kind of random?  I understand wanting to make a set for Diver and a set for GT, but why those two games together?

To get them posted to the site, all assets need to be a minimum of 300 dpi. For DVD covers, they should be 3225 x 2156. Everything should be well cleaned and polished. I do my best to get covers, that pass the cover projects standards,  posted quickly.

These covers are sensational! They definitely look like they fit the bill of being 300 dpi, at least on my screen they do. :)

Hoping to get some help in having people make covers for some more common games, I've gotten a ton of disc-only games lately, would like to commit even ones that aren't worth a ton into DVD cases.

This one's gonna be a little tough:

I'm still in the process of getting the latest version of Photoshop to work with my PC, and until then, I'm in the dark when it comes to three games I've been DESPERATELY searching for covers for.

The three games are NASCAR Rumble, Crash Bash, and SimTheme Park, all for Playstation 1. If anyone has those on a DVD format, would you consider sharing? Please in English!

Thanks! If anyone isn't able to do it, it might be a few months (maybe longer if Adobe doesn't want to cooperate, like normal) before I can get to work on these covers.

The Saturn and PlayStation share the same artwork for Tetris Plus. You can just re-tool the Saturn cover for the PS1. It in the Saturn section In the database.

This cover wasn't just a simple retool from the Saturn counterpart version. I ended up repainting like 60% of the cover to fix some colors, fixed the barcode numbers to match that of the game, fixed the product ID number, reimaged the title for the spine, spot cleaned here and there, changed the Jaleco logo and a few other minor details were done. This took longer then I thought, but in the end the results I think makes this cover look great.

I'm currently in the process of covering over 350 PS1 games and most of the covers are not hosted on the site so I gotta put them together. This cover is one of which.. I just need to ask is how do you guys do the back cover without stretching the image so much? I put a small black bar on top of this one just to help reduce the stretching but I know it could be better. The front has been redone but still needs some work. If you guys could help me with some advice I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Alright guys, after reading in the forums about segamers youtube channel I decided to go give it a look to see what was good. After watching a few videos on cutting logos and fixing them up, I decided to download the same photoshop program in the videos and began watching beginner videos on youtube to learn what tools did what and how to use them. Long story short, I decided to rework on the previous covers I posted to practice my skills in hopes to become a better cover artist for this site. Behold, my first cover. I realigned the front cover since the last was abit crooked. A little smart blur, more spot cleaning, and a few more minor details. Again, this took awhile. So cover admins, plz take another look at this cover and give me some feedback on what I need to do or not do. If this passes, I'll post more covers in this flavor. Thanks.

I know it's not 100% to site standards but for real, this cover. I redid it so many times I just decided to go with an old magazine advertisment from back in the day and just clean it up a bit. I might got a little crazy with it, but it works for me. I got Ultimate Battle 22 and Legends in the works as well cuz I need them for my collection as I still got 290 something PSone games I want to put in DVD cases.

Edit: irvgotti452 provided me with some good scans. I'll be taking another shot at this cover with the alternate version in mind.

Completely did an overhaul on the back this time. I used one of the scans irvgotti452 provided me with (Thanks again), used different screenshots cuz I wanted higher quality pictures this time around. Typed up the text (I don't have the right font but I did the best I could with what I had), typed the copyrights and other legal stuff based on the cover that was already on the site and used Shenske's logo already made cuz I liked it. Also, more minor clean up. Hopefully, this cover will do.

Sim Theme Park, Crash Bash, and Namco Museum Vol 3 are all in my scan thread (link in signature).  

Awesomesauce. I'll see what I can do.

I honestly can't believe some has the scans for PS1 SimTheme Park. That is an obscure game.
Thanks dude.

Not readily available but I can scan them.  You'll have to give me a few days to get them scanned though.  Let me know if any of those don't work out for you as I scanned them a while back.

I've recently been putting together artwork for all my games which don't have covers provided on The Cover Project. Most of these covers I've made don't use scans of a high enough quality to be submitted to the main site, but I figured there are those in the forums who might like to use them as a placeholder until better artwork is uploaded. Some of these covers were created by other users, and all I have done is altered them to fit a different template or corrected information. Others have been put together from the raw scans from scratch. All of them use templates provided by this site. Please Enjoy!

EDIT: It's become too much work to update all these individual threads. My complete cover list can be found in the mediafire link in my signature.

Hi,

First time posting!
Sorry if I've missed some obvious posts, this place is a bit of treasure trove/rabbit's warren,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice on clearing up text from a scan.
The few games I've been playing around with seem to always get some artefacts around
the text.
Perhaps I'm looking too closely at the text.
Any suggestions?

The artifacts are a result of the low quality of the scan you are using. The scans used for Cover Project covers are 300 dpi at a minimum. This makes for nice crisp images that don't have the compression artifacts you are referring to. Even then, the best covers have the text removed and completely retyped with a matching font.

Thanks Tyler,

I'll have a mooch about for a better quality scan for this one.
Retyping might be the way to but didn't want to take to many liberties with the strange word art etc.

Thanks for your reply!

There are so many PlayStation games out there that trying to case a large collection is daunting, and it doesn't help that there are so many covers that have yet to be created. I've got a huge wish list of scans for this system, but for now I'm content just to work on the raws that have been shared already. Here's what I've been working on most recently. I'm about finished with a cover for Time Busters as well.

There is such a backlog of quality raw scans sitting here in the forums thanks to people like yourself and akrate69, that I haven't made an official request list yet. I started one a few months ago but then got distracted making Super Nintendo covers. Here's A through B. I'll check the rest of my list tomorrow and post it here.

Arc the Lad Collection
Ape Escape

Ballistic
Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain
Boombots
Brigandine: The Legend of Forsena

From this group, I only have Eternal Eyes and Front Mission 3.  I own Final Doom, but unfortunately, it's a disc only copy.  That being said, I do own the original PC version of Final Doom which came in a cardboard case with similar artwork to the PS1 version, so I can always scan that.  I'm sure at least a few assets from it could be used for a PS1 cover.

It's up to you, but when I scan jewel case games, I always scan the inlay, because I figure if I'm opening up the jewel case, I might as well scan everything so I don't have to open it up again later.  Even if the requester doesn't need it, I figure it's best to scan as much as possible.

Thanks, TDIRunner. A scan of the PC box would be nice, if only to copy the layout on the screenshots and text on the back for the PS1 Cover. I think I remember you mentioning you keep your games in jewel cases, do you want me to do a jewel case version of the Final Doom scans Bear78 has shared for you?

And thanks to you as well Bear78! The inlay is handy to have because it sometimes has artwork that can be used to fill out the back of the DVD cover.

Yes, if you don't mind.  I have one currently, but it is VERY low quality and I would love to replace it.  No rush.  Thanks.

I also included the PC version of Final Doom, although I'm not sure if it's really helpful at all.  It's more different from the PS1 version then I remembered.

You guys are most excellent! It'll be awhile before I get around to making covers with these scans, but it's great to have these for when I do! I'll get the rest of my list sorted out and post the rest of the games I'd like to track down scans for soon. Thanks again!

For scanning, the minimum settings are 600dpi, with descreen turned on, if available.

For finished covers, the dpi should be 300.

The bigger the better, however that doesnt mean that the highest is the best.  My Epson allows Descreen on anything 600 DPI and under.  However, I can scan up to 2400 DPI.  My thoughts is that the more you scan and provide, the more a person has to work with.  Big images will clean up nicely between the lines and scale nicely down to 300 DPI.  If you are trying to clean up a cover that's scanned in 300 DPI, then you can't resize down (and potentially hide some cover ups). 

However, if you do like 2400 DPI, then there is a moire effect all throughout the entire picture, but the spots are so minute when scaled back to 300 DPI, that's why I provide when I can (even though they are ~300MB).

It's been a rough couple weeks converting to a new position at (full-time) Job #1 (while juggling job (part-time) 2 + (helping moms business) 3 on the side).  I have so many PS1 games, it's not even funny.

I don't see Grandia in his raw scan thread. Maybe he posted it elsewhere?

Congratulations on the new position at Job #1! I'm in no rush to get scans of these games, as I've mentioned above, there are so many PlayStation raws already uploaded to the site that I can stay busy for a long time.  But at some point in the future I would very much appreciate any scans you can provide. I know you have an impressive guide book collection as well, if any of them are for the games I've listed I'd love some scans of those as well. Thanks Smooth!

I have 6 games from the latest list including the GTA games, but my GTA games are the Collector's Edition and the Director's Cut, which are slightly different from the black label, so if you want to scan the black label, go ahead. Either way, I will scan the CE and DC.

Scans are updated for the following:

I will skip the GTA CE games for now (GTA2 is already scanned).  I just now saw your comment about the DC, so I will scan that next and call it a day.

I'm so very appreciative TDIRunner! The manual scans that were included with the Director's Cut are actually perfect for making covers for both of the GTA games. Take a well deserved break from scanning. When I get around to finishing my wishlist up I'll post it here or make a new topic and you can fulfill any of the other requests I make at your leisure. You've already scanned enough to keep me occupied for a good while!

If you're still willing Bear, I'd actually love to get a scan of the back cover. The GTA Director's Cut scans TDIRunner shared included a copy of the London manual so I just need the back image. I appreciate it!


And TDIRunner, the same goes for the CE version of the first GTA that you were willing to share. Thank you kindly.

Hey Shoot, looking through your photos, I can see the following games that I would love to make into DVD covers:

Azure Dreams
Ford Truck Mania
Frogger 2: Swampy's Revenge
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver
N2O: Nitrous Oxide
Nectaris: Military Madness
Powerslave
Sheep
Sled Storm
Spyro: Year of the Dragon
Speed Punks
Syphon Filter 2
Syphon Filter 3
The Misadventures of Tron Bonne

It's a big wishlist, but you've got a lot of games in those pictures! As I have previously stressed, I'm in no hurry to get these scanned, so whenever you have the time is fine. I've probably got raw scans for 50 different PS1 games already. I think I'll be making covers for the next 6 years at this rate! Thanks once again, Shoot.

No, I've never had that disc.  I received an empty case a while back in a large lot of games.  I should probably just buy it off the GameStop website since I have a 99% chance of getting it disc only from them anyway.

Also, I'm not sure why no one (including myself) has mentioned this yet, but why don't you setup a thread in the request section?  It would probably make more sense then using up more space in this thread which should really be used for finished covers.  That way you can keep your requests in the first comment.  Also, since I haven't even completed a small percentage of your requests, they will be easier for others to see.

Couldn't find MDK for the PS1 so I used the art for the MAC cover and shenske's template to make one. Found a scan of BAT3 jewel covers and did what I could with them (again using shenske's template). They're not bad, I think.
Link to album of covers (hopefully....never tried to use imgur like this b4):

I've got the .PSD files for both but can't upload them here (too many MB's) try messaging me if you need 'em.

Also, to the mods- I uploaded one of the PSD's (upload page) before i remembered that I should have posted the covers here. Sorry bout that.

Would you mind posting a link to the template? I noticed you said it was linked in your first post, but I looked and don't see any links for anything there. I did see that you set check templates page for download link, but I looked through the forums for something called "template page" or anything similar, didn't find it. Looked at the main page, didn't see it. I may have overlooked it, but a link to the template in the first post would help tremendously.

EDIT: OK I found the template. Yep, I'd overlooked it. Regardless of that, I think a link to the template in your first post would be a big help for future artists. Just a thought.

Thanks in advance

Hi - not sure if this is the correct spot to post this.

I've recently started buying PS1 games off ebay (mostly disc only) and created DVD Custom boxes using vector assets from various Playstation instruction manuals. The reason I've gone the DVD route is because the PAL region psx jewel cases were a custom size which you can't get anymore.

I managed to grab Earthworm Jim 2  PAL and this is the DVD box art I created for it.

The 300dpi is here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/d57ib74e16we24n/earthworm-jim-2-psx-sles00343.jpg

Hi Guys,

Looking for some feedback on my recent cover for Porsche Challenge. A great game btw.
Any honest feedback?
Should I create my own/find sharper new screenshots?
Should I retype the words on the back?
What typeface/font does everyone use for the spine letters? I've used Ariel I think in this example.

Can you teach me how to do this? I have games that have no covers here on the site that I would like to make some for but i have no experience in this kind of thing and I feel like these old games may never see covers if I don't make them.

I did post a request on the forums but it seems like most of the things going up these days are for PS4 and switch stuff. I am not even sure there is anyone still making stuff for PS1/Dreamcast/Sega Saturn these days, so I thought I might try my hand at it but have 0 experience. I tried using GIMP but that got me nowhere.

The problem with DVD style covers for PS1 is that very few people are using that style.  I considered it way back, but it would involve making covers for all games, including the ones that are already CIB and due to the number of PS1 games I have, it simply isn't feasible.  Also, due to the square shape of the PS1 jewel cases, it's difficult to simply copy and paste the artwork onto a rectangular shaped DVD cover. 

So the amount of work needed to create the covers is greater than most styles, and the number of people using that format is much less than most other styles.  Therefore there isn't much supply to match the little demand.

That [the fact that the source material is not the same dimensions as a jewel case and stretching is a no-no], the loss of space [as the DVD boxes are HUGE compared to a CD case], and lastly... if you have any PS1 games in CD cases... are you... converting those as well... because they just look bad next to one another...  DVD Case - CD case - CD case - CD case - DVD case - DVD case

Totally agree how dumb games will look on the shelf. However, the original PS1 PAL Jewel cases are hard to come by. DVD boxes are cheaper.
If you want to keep all your games neat on the shelf, an alternative option would be to use those thick double cd jewel cases (like Final Fantasy 8 and Metal Gear Solid). 5 of these new are more expensive than 10 new dvd boxes.

Salvation Army's have double cd cases usually for $0.49 where I am at.  Whenever one breaks, I buy some terrible audio CD and use it for parts  ;D

Just a reminder to the person that has received the last cover or postcard. Please update the thread, if you have not done so. Or, if you have not sent anything to one of the participants on the list, please do so.

Thank you

Ok, thinking this is a weird spam bot. 7 day ban just to make sure.

Made a new DVD style cover for Descent. The one on the site had the vertical PlayStation logo on the front so redid it to get rid of it. I then scanned and cleaned my copy to get a better looking back.

Just finished another PS1 custom cover. Everything except the back was made from scratch. I used the back top part of the cover Shenske posted and made a few changes to it. The back bottom half, spine and front were all done by me. Looks absolutely gorgeous printed out.

That's cool, as I think it was a green Greatest Hits exclusive. The original was a long box under the name ESPN Extreme Games.

i just really hate the green and since it is a custom cover I took some liberties. Luckily I keep a PSD file of all my covers that way I can always go back and make changes easily and the PS1 template I use that Shenske made is top notch and has a Greatest Hits overlay
