I fixed the problem of codebar with adjustments in software.. now I'll fix it in the pony I posted and put new screenshots to get the best quality ..

Looks clean. But if I might suggest sticking to the original fonts on the covers. For this one on the back bubbles is Futura Std - Medium Compressed and Bold Compressed, for the bottom is Futura Light condensed. Check your spelling also there are typos in the bubbles. Also since you seem to know your way around photoshop the screen shots can be matched 100% using a couple of screenshots and photoshop itself. Making this a 100% complete retail cover. Nice work though.

You should contact a cover admin to discuss things.

Not a good idea to quit making covers either, you are one of the few here who contributes lately instead of just posting endless request threads.

Great, another artist about to disappear because the stringent upload procedures and approval process.

TCP is starting to become very good at keeping talent away.

I think it's best to just chill and let him talk with the cover admins in private before attacking how things work here. We just had a couple of months of that, it was irritating but as a result we got a few new admins. Give them a chance to find their feet and handle things.

Unfortunately none of us new admins yet have site FTP access,  so we can't yet check/post new covers to the site.

I am positive that 1980coelho has produced plenty of site worthy covers, and I have promised I will go through all of his once I have FTP access.

[irvgotti452]

I too think 1980coelho has done some nice work so far. We just need to wait a bit I'm guessing.

[Azarkhel]

There ya go, bit of patience and it's all sorted without any drama.

*I thank also the anonymous who are downloading the covers I've posted.. although most do not write to the forum, I see that the number of accesses to the links I have posted are increasing every day on number of downloads ..

Not allare real downloaders.
There are few automated downloaders that once in a while download stuff linked to the forums.

Nobody has said anything about poor quality, or non-site worthy covers.  Might be an idea to take a deep breath before ranting when you don't know the story.

Even I think that Coehlo has done some nice covers on first glance. He may be a bit over motivated (threads massing up) but other than that. Still I like cleaned scans more than vector stuff. Too "perfect" for me.

When I get back from my holidays I will check all of his covers. It will take quite some time until the new admins get server access this I can tell ya.
This is good in my book as they can really read up on everything and also think about it before doing anything which can't be corrected.

I've checked some of the covers and on general level they are very good, but still need bit more work.

At quick glance for example Bart's Nightmare:
I'd like the Bart on the front (and other big one color areas) to be more solid. Easyish fix with magic tool.
Also Bart, Lisa and Maggie images on back cover should be cleaned and strengthened bit more. (They are bit washed out and lines are not clean).

Otherwise (assuming barcode and legal stuff is correct) I'd approve the cover in a heart beat.

It would be a custom due to the screen shots not being from retail. But otherwise the same little touch ups. Still some of the nicer work out there.

did not understand about the corrections that u spoke at bart .. can specify more details?

Most big single colors areas like sky, Bart's shirt, shorts, Maggie's pyramid body, the cat, Marge's hair, Homer, green alien,

So basicly all big areas that are not white, red or yellow look stripy or spotty and need additional cleaning to make them solid one color.

Also the flying edge triangle needs replacing.

Also on the area between mouse, Marge and Bart there is clerly dirt.

as the screenshots .. lose a lot of definition to scan .. I saw this when printing some covers .. and how I'm doing, picking through emulators images with the same look and the next cover not look good?

how do then?

Screenshots are excelent quality, but as they are not 100% correct the cover should be called custom.
