The paper I used here are from onlinelabels.com

They're full sheet weatherproof glossy labels. They're not cheap. I bought them in a fairly large quantity, and it came down to a $1 per sheet. At low quantities, it's more.

I ordered some off eBay that's meant to be glossy. 18 sheets for 3 bucks + 2 postage. Thought I'd give that a whirl. They definitely look good though. It's a shame this stuff is so pricey. Testing always costs a bit

Also. Here's a cover for mother 3 I've been working on, any feedback?

I see artifaction caused by low quality source material.

[JakeHC]

I decreased the size, if you mean the text it doesn't look like that on the original. But the original does need touch ups. I just had to find something I was happy with. Still not completely happy with it atm

[kaysow]

looks to me like artifacting occurs here just because of too much red backgrounds, which jpeg/mpeg is known to handle poorly. and i don't know anything about the general earthbound/mother aesthetics but that typography on the back looks hella cheap. is that courier?

[JakeHC]

Yeah man im a programmer so I chose my native font haha. It was just more to see layout and what not. I'm really new to Photoshop haha. Any suggestions?

[kaysow]

well i don't know what style earthbound usually goes with, but i'd use something linear (sans serif) with a bit of volume to it.

I mean atleast in preview all images and texts seem to be surrounded by Artifacts or "bubble halos"


Would you mind linking us to full size cover, or if you don't want it public PM me direct link to it.
naturally I won't share it further, I just want to see full image to fully judge the quality and if possible better it for you (I too am not very good at image editing, but least I can try ).

Hi guys,

Unfortunately I've had some issues with the mother 3 rom, I think it's too big for the carts and not saving. I've been asked to choose a different game. Going to go with Flora Sky for now until I can work something out.

[Arseen]

Tell me if you ever get the Mother 3 working.

[JakeHC]

I've sourced someone who can do Mother 3, but they're quoting me like 6 times the original price of what I could get it done for. But this one comes with a label too.

[JakeHC]

Okay guys, games arrived today! Some awesome looking games, testing now and will let you guys know how it all goes.
