Amiga 500 Ideas?

DVD cases it is then. I have done another. To celebrate. Its nothing like the quality of the covers you guys and girls are used to.

Shadow of the BEST???? LOL
Just a few pointers - i know i used some low quality stuff from the net - but try to at least get some things with no watermark on. Mobygames should always be a last resort - the quality of their stuff is 99.99% not usable when scaled to a large size for a cover.
I generally use mobygames to get an idea of how the retail box looked, then using photoshop i replace the text, and screenshots and lastly background layer to get a crisper finish.
For the front - you might want to go the custom route and either find a dfecent sized megadrive/genesis cover to take the front image from, or something like this: http://www.360magazine.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/logo.jpg and then superimpose the game title logo on afterwards.

Doh!!! :'(
That sounds a much better route. Plus I cant stand watermarks.

i did a quick job just to show you what i mean. it's a bit basic, but at least the text/etc is readable, and no watermarks.
its in the usual place........
