Made covers for both Persona 2 JP to go along with the Persona cover I already uploaded.

All 3 Personas together




I know I'm getting greedy, but can you make US versions of all 3? What can I say I really like your work.  :-[ :D

Innocent Sin was never released in the US, so ill be kinda hard.. I know I can make Persona and Eternal Punishment if I find the English text.

Well Innocent Sin finally had a fan translation completed, Vicman had requested a cover for it. If you did that it'd save me a bit of work :P

I don't want to sound rude, but what is it with people requesting the horizontal Playstation template for said games? I mean, I have no problems with it, but it looks too much like the PS2 template, only with the 2 removed from the Playstation logo at the top.

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.

Actually, the CD case art for the PS1 games weren't horizontal, but vertical. Even you should've known that.

Those are probably the two biggest reasons I prefer the Horizontal over the vertical style.

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.

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.

Uh, that's the exact reason. People want consistency between their PS1 and PS2 games. Why do you think that PS3 DVD project popped 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.


thats a lot of the reason vertical covers can be such a pain  :)

Even so, I still like my covers to be vertical. That way, they stand out from my other games. I'm sorry if you guys don't like it, but you'll just have to live with it. Either like it or lump it, or something like that.
