UGC cover size?

I do have a couple of additional questions.
Do these cases have a tendency to curve inwards on the back? Because all of mine do. By the back I mean the side where all the plastic parts are located for holding the games. I hope you get what I mean. :)
And I have noticed that the covers I print tend to "bobble/crumble" on the middle section of the cases. Perhaps I should use a different kind of paper, rather than standard?

All my UGC have the same curve you describe. It's only annoying when you try to fit a thick manual as the slight curve eat a bit of space under the cartridge.
For the paper bobble, I am guessing you are using bubble jet. Perhaps a more glossy paper with different printing settings would help, but I'm not an expert at all. I switched to laser color which is surprisingly cheap nowadays.
SNES:
Thanks mate. :)
I have no idea of what you are talking about regarding printers, I am not that rechnical.
I will try a different kind of paper to see if that solves the problem.
I would really like to know if anybody else have that "curve" on their cases?

I think he meant that if you use too thin paper with too high ink setting the paper gets soaked and warps when drying.
Use Semigloss photopaper for good result.
SNES:
Thanks Arseen, that makes a bit more sense. :)
Do you have UGC's?

3 I think (that have come with boxsets.
So far I have used Doublewide DVD cases, but now I'm holding off for Onioncases or similar.
