I was looking at the expanding range of 'Games for Windows' branded PC games, and I thought perhaps we could start adding that banner to older games, similar to the GBA/DS project you've got going on. How about it?

This query came up when we cut the project over from Snack-bar and it was felt that there were other sites covering PC/DVD stuff already. So we thought we'd keep it to consoles only ......

Still ...... Snowcone's the Big Dude around here so whatever he says goes ......

Personally I think keeping the site console only is the way to go. Just my opinion though ....

Honestly, if people are up for doing custom GfW covers, I'll host them. I'll add it to the upload list and see what happens.

You gotta admit that our site is about 300x times easier to navigate though. :)

I'd be more than happy to make a few DVD inserts if we can get a good PC template going..

Of course it is... and our covers are usable which is not the case with a lot of sites.

I was only answering the question. I probably should have included a disclaimer:
This answer is not a recomendation or endorsement.
If you find a cover you are looking for, you will probably be disappointed.
When printed, the cover art is blurry and looks like crap. Most of the stuff I find on the web is 72 dpi.
(This reflects my results only, other results may vary)

Unless of course they come to The Cover Project.
