Onion game Cases

Cool, I can't wait to see what you come up with! That JDEX (is that right?) logo is pretty out there. That must have taken a pretty significant chunk of time to create.
It's so cool that you younger guys have access to this software at such a young age. I was in a graphics program in high school and we did almost EVERYTHING by hand. We had 5 Macs for 20+ kids :( And they were primitive. I think we were learning Corel Draw? It would have been in 1994/5. I can't recall exactly. Either way, I hated whatever software we were using. I stumbled upon Illustrator about 4-5 years later and just started tinkering with it and was pretty impressed with it. I didn't have a clue what I was doing though, and had to pretty much teach myself, which means I didn't get to the point you're at until I was well into my 20's. The whole digital transition cut the time it takes to create logos and grpahics into a tiny fraction of what it did when it was all done with slide rules, Rapidograph pens, and rubylith overlay. What a pain in the ass that stuff was.

but a lot of computer generation designers are pretty bad with analog methods, you have an advantage there, i have to learn drawing by my self because in college only teach the adobe suite and concepts for agumental purposes.

Good luck, everyone! 8)

I thought of another case idea for you.
2 cart cases for gameboy, gameboy color, and gba.
So people can make dual cases or store more than on copy of a game without taking up extra space.

Thanks. I added your idea to my notes. 8)
By the way, if any of you haven't subscribed to this thread yet, now would be a good time.
I'm going to make an Announcement,
about the Availability of my Game Cases,
on, or shortly after,
Saturday, October 13'th. ;)
October 13'th is Two Weeks after the opening day of the Portland Retro Gaming Expo.
I can't make a personal appearance there, this year, but if you happen to be going (Sat, Sept 29'th & Sun, Sept 30'th) be sure to keep an eye out for a friend of mine. I'll give more details about him, as the PRGE approaches.
