Fuck yeah!
Superchop:
My favorite line was how she said that her entire day was dedicated to her "business". I mean we're they really that busy and getting that many orders that their entire day was spent "designing", printing and cutting covers?
And I'm pretty curious as to how much she's going to sell her "business" for...I can't imagine it'd be anything much...most of our video game collections are probably worth more then her LLC

Look on the bright side, they posted a bunch of raw scans.
I'm going through and getting them all before they are removed.

Some how, I may have had a hand in this, telling their customers of this site and all that...they may have had to pay back several people on several occasions.

"I know open source community you’ll hope that by us publishing everything there is to know + MORE, on game case creation that our competition will take a hit. "
"By posting rants and information about our web site on your forums you drove traffic to us again and again and helped our Google ranking climb. As you bash and get angry at other sellers, you will help their business and lend credence and legitimacy to what they do even if it’s the opposite of your intention. By having NO user agreement for uploading or downloading covers unlike other Open Source distribution web sites. Most of this is due to the nature of game cases and copyright infringement worries. The only answer for Open Source web sites is to figure out how to exploit the selling of game cases to promote the making of game cases. With limited organization and bad Google rankings the few sites attempting to do this aren’t reaching a wide audience. Additionally by incentivizing sellers to put links on their web sites to your covers you would get traffic. However, admins of sites like this have not only condoned verbal vomit on their forums but also buying up original works that were hand drawn, then scanning them in, and freely distributing them after spending pages about how bad the artist is. Namely myself. THEN you want me to link to your web site. "
"The Writing is On The Wall
The future has arrived. Game cases and the distribution and collection of libraries of games will grow tremendously in the years to come. For those who think it will stay quiet and no one will seek to capitalize on that popularity are fools. People who can truly benefit from the game case covers and processes will push the hobby forward world wide. So don’t be worried about the dozens of users cropping up selling game cases. Most of them suck anyway, but there will be ones that won’t.
Where can you still get game cases? Although he competes with us and writes silly diatribes against us (which we love) I would suggest going to retrogamecases.com for your game cases. We’ve competed with him for a long time and it’s been real. He does however make a decent game case and decent NES case. He’s also honest and isn’t in it to make a quick buck. He actually likes the game cases he works with, so I have to give him +1 for that. To Retro – get an SSL certificate! "
