Custom PAL Covers

[Dravenae]

Hi!

Is there any chance we could get some PAL custom covers for the following games please?

Turok 2: Seeds of Evil N64
Mickey Mania SNES
TMNT IV: Turtles in Time SNES
Hagane: The Final Conflict SNES
Battletoads in Battlemaniacs SNES

I see that we haven't got any scans in for Mickey Mania. I reckon I could get a scan of the original box art within the next few months, but if anyone else has got it now, that would be awesome!

Thanks in advance!

Regards, Drav.

These SNES covers (including the 4 you requested) are in US format (Vertical):

Do you mean this style, but in PAL format: like this: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7518

The convercion is possible.
I can't promise when, but if you type me the back texts here, it might happen faster.

Or if you're happy with Semi PAL cover, meaning otherwise PAL but with US gray bar back instead of PAL 4 circle one, then I can do them instanly.

[Dravenae]

Preferably the PAL format please.

As in the second style you linked( http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7518 ).

I have the rest of my games in the PAL format, and I would (preferably) like to have all my games in the same format.

There is obviously no rush on this request, as I can use the NTSC covers until the PAL covers are complete.

I thought about just changing all my PAL covers to NTSC customer cover, but I recently picked up Castlevania: Vampires Kiss, and that is the PAL version of Castlevania: Dracula X, and only came with a PAL design. As I'm sure you and other collectors can appreciate, I would prefer to keep my collection universal, rather than have a PAL cover here, and a NTSC cover there.

Thank you for the reply by the way! Much appreciated!

The Master List I linked has PAL games in US format covers too (including Castlevania Vampire's Kiss) as altough I'm European (Finnish) I prefer my covers in the US style.

But making PAL cover is easy as long as someone posts me empty PAL template jpeg (or I can just empty one of the PAL covers).
I'll give it a try when I have day off.

I would prefer sticking with PAL, if I'm honest. I just prefer the style. Like I said there is seriously no rush on the covers, when you have spare time is more than suffice. I don't mind using the NTSC covers as fill-ins until the PAL covers are done, but really I would prefer the PAL format. Sorry for being a pain! LOL.

Not sure where I could find you a PAL format template. Still pretty new to the site. Will do some digging.

[Arseen]

I know what you mean, as I refuse to use PAL covers altough the difference is small.

And PAL SNES template in the template section.

My computer is so underpowered that it just crashes when I try to open the template.
But I think I can easily empty one of the PAL covers, I just need the 4 circle background.

I have Mon & Tue free I'll do it then.

[Dravenae]

Thanks man! It very much appreciated!

To be honest, I know all about underpowered PC's. Currently rocking an Acer with Windows XP and a Toshiba with Windows Vista, both 6+ years old at this point. Thankfully my hard drive is still in good order. The Acer is starting to get bad sectors now, but to be honest, there's nothing I really keep on it. I just use it for college work, and all my work is saved on an external hard drive anyway. So, bar it being my first computer, I'm not overly heart broken. LOL!

I found those templates, here's the links:

Thanks again for this! I'm studying Computer Programming, and haven't a notion on how to use photo shop, or any other image editor for that matter! I used GIMP before, but the end product was a disaster! So I just came down to the conclusion, that I'd be better off leaving the experts at TCP to do this! LOL!

Monday and Tuesday are fine, thanks! There is seriously no rush on them, but if you can get them done then, perfect!

Thanks again! Very much appreciated!

For the covers I need this but in PAL format


Also the back texts typed would help.
Just type and post the text here as normal unformatted post.

[Dravenae]

Where can I find templates like that?

I can provide the back text no problem. I'll PM you the back text. If you want to keep things simple, the back text from the NTSC covers will do.

Where can I find templates like that?

It's the Shenske template.
You'll have to open it, make empty cover, save it as jpeg and upload it.
Like I said when I try to do that my computer chokes.

I only need the back.
Spine and front I can copy from any cover.

I'll try to open the template and see what happens, I might get lucky and manage to open it.

You can just post the text here as normal un edited text post.
I then copy the text and edit it.

[Arseen]

Nope, not enough memory.

[Dravenae]

Is this what you wanted? It's the only thing I could find.

[Arseen]

Kinda yes, but those are imandix previews.
I need actual empty cover

You (or someone) has to open the template and create same kind of empty cover as the US one I linked.
I mean actual cover but with no info.

I mean this but in PAL (click and download and you'll see that it's and actual empty cover @300DPI)
