| Request: Rambo NES - US - Scans inside |
| << < (4/5) > >> |
| ShaggyB:
here's what ive done so far: replaced the rambo name on the side and back. Re-did the (R) logo on the side. Recolored the Rambo logo on the front, the (R) on front and back... and REV-A has been recolored. Cleaned up the akklaim logos. Im trying to maintain the black boarder and the original nintendo logo. http://www.mediafire.com/?q1pl6m5hraby2y1 Ultimately, it needs new pics in better detail for the back. Perhaps a nintendo entertainment system logo and wording re-do for the front. Cant even read the words above entertainment system. What do you guys think? |

What's causing the words to become blurry? Same with the RAMBO on the front, it seems fuzzy. I checked the scans and they seem pretty sharp. What did you use to downscale the image from the original scan before putting it into the template? |

Alright, so I hope you don't mind but I put together a Rambo cover for you. I don't think it'd make the cut on the site but you can certainly use it if you want, and feel free to edit or play around with it if you want to improve on it. A couple things: On the one you were working with, I notice that the size is 3366x2196, but bear in mind that the cover template and the UGCs are designed for 3366x2100. Second, do you know what might have caused the little white flecks on the scans? They're only on certain parts of the image, like on Rambo's machinegun, in his hair, at the top of the image, and also on the screenshots in the back, but nowhere else. I'm wondering if this was done in a scanner setting/filter. It's bizarre, because the rest of the scan, like the Rambo logo is nice and sharp. I don't have a box for the game, but I'm guessing the picture that was used was probably shoddy and blurry which could be why the scans come out strange (wouldn't surprise me, given Acclaim's reputation for quality ;) ). The screenshots can be redone, but the image on the front is what concerns me. You might want to play around with the scanner settings a bit and see if you can get one without the white flecks. |

that would more likely be the quality of the box itself. Its pretty good, but it isnt perfect by any means. I like yours though as it fixes a few of the issues i had in mine. Discovered the size thing yesterday evening as well. (But as I said... I like yours better as youve managed to preserve the bottom right corner) |

Regarding the blur, I checked the manual and the cart yesterday and the picture on the front seems to have the same focus issue. The background I can understand being that way since it's meant to be out-of-focus, but even Rambo himself seems that way so I don't think there's much anyone can do even with a scan of a minty box. That's just the way the cover was designed, so maybe blurry actually IS retail (again, this IS an Acclaim game we're talking about here)! ;D |
