Looks like they are coming along nicely. If I didn't know any better I would think that they are original retail boxes from a distance. Well dont

Finally got just about all of them down.  For some reason I forgot to do Dragon Warrior and an extra Zelda cart I have.

Wow, I never knew that C-64 could print in that quality.  Or even in color.

Looks good.  I almost like it better than the UGCs, but I'm sort of committed to them right now....
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

Thanks for the link, I was concerned about my ATARI boxes, but these aren't really cheaper, $70 for 100 [ http://www.videogameboxprotectors.com/store/4569532134] cost more than UGCs...but I don't need 100, so maybe a few won't break the bank, for the less than a dozen boxes I have.

I might just need this 10-pack

Thanks guys!  This has been a fun project.

It's funny I've actually thought about trying to find a (maybe broke) C64 to case mod a PC.

I don't really make new covers if that's what you mean.  Just edit other peoples work really.

it looks really good on a shelf. from a distance I bet you can't tell that they aren't original boxes.

If i had the knowledge on how to make anything like is made here i would most definately do it and i could be more of a help. As it stands all i can do is admire others work.  :)

These look really good and no need to modify cases to make them fit. I am planning on buying some of these soon and wanted to start printing the covers now. Are you going to make these available to download, or at least what are the dimensions so people can make their own very easily

Sorry it took so long to get back. I'm in the middle of moving so I've been crazy busy. I got about half of the ones I've made uploaded in my box.net account so check there. I'll have to upload the template too.

Finished uploading them and the template.

The template is kind of crap but it works for me.  The finished dimensions is 3332x1594.  When I print it out, I leave a flap on the right side (if its facing you) to fold under and tape down.  This is not part of my template.

Looks familiar :-P..

good job.. :). I think we should start a subset if these for Cart only collectors. I was doing the n64 inserts but went on vacation.
