I just wanted to say that I didn't mean that as an attack on anyone or anything. I know this is a free service and I shouldn't be complaining about it. There are a lot of people here that do great work, both cover admins, and regular folks. I just wanted to express how I felt about the whole "why can't I find this cover" situation. Having said that, a majority of the covers I have requested in the forums have been fulfilled by the community and I can't thank them enough for putting time into creating a cover. |

I get a new boxed game and go check the hosted files, If its not there I will scan it and post the raws. The thing is, the artwork may never get used, or if it does, may never get hosted on the site. I know I scanned Liberty of Death for the SNES months ago and posted the raws on the site. There is no hosted artwork for it still so I don't know if anyone ever used it of if they did its probably buried in some thread somewhere. I know the admins require a very high level of quality before they host them and thats great but at the same time I can easily point out hosted artwork that looks like complete shit and yet it got uploaded and hosted. I don't really know what the answer is but it is kind of discouraging, like do I really want to take the time to scan these? Will anyone actually use them? Just some thoughts. I would like to contribute more raws but as far as I know, everything I got is probably scanned and sitting in someones box.net account unused. --- End quote --- Do you have a thread that has all of your RAWS posted? If you do you should link it in your sig. I find it very difficult to locate items. If you have a single thread with your uploaded RAWs then someone like myself might try and take a stab at some of those covers. |

Believe me, it's more annoying to hear the "but there's shit in the archives" line than any of the annoyances new members bring up. |
