Title: Is it possible in bunch?
Post by: phadaphunk on May 24, 2017, 08:25:25 PM
Very nice work guys this site is a gold mine. I can only imagine the time and effort that went into scanning all these cases.. 0.o

I was wondering if there is something I can use to download every available game covers for a specific console (in my case the SNES).

Thanks.  :)

can you pay Snowcone $1000 a month to support the bandwidth that that would create from this free site?

Hosting isn't free

Has Snowcone ever discussed the site's finances? I asked a while ago if there was any donation system or anything other than ads with which to support the site and it didn't seem anyone really knew. Not that I don't totally agree with you, there's no reason to download every cover, and it doesn't even make sense because you'll end up with a mix of vertical, horizontal, and custom covers with a considerable amount of redundancy therein. phadaphunk, you are much better off just downloading the covers you need rather than everything. And don't forget to search the forums for additional covers not found on the main site. Many users have posted covers to the forums that don't meet the stringent upload rules of The Cover Project, but are of great quality non-the-less. Additionally, a good many of the regular contributors to the site have signatures below their posts with links to their box.net or mediafire accounts with even more covers, some not even mentioned in the forums. Suffice to say, there are probably just as many games with covers in the forums as there are on the main site...maybe more? And if there's ever a game (or 5) which you can't find a cover for, make a request and the resident cover artists will do their best to help.

Wait are you saying I have to download EVERY cover individually? Thats BS. All I wanted was to make a fast profit selling other peoples work.  >:(

we need a sticky that just says "No" so that someone sarcastic can say "yes!, here!"
