Hey guys,

I'm a noob to the site and am enjoying it thus far. Prior to finding this site I had started on my TurboGrax16 collection. I see that here most of the games are done in a DVD format. Check out this guys link and templates he made for photoshop to make CD Jewel case art. Both front and back with spine. I've done all my turbo games this way. Cheers!

Hello there Hatereternal! I'm glad you found my video and I appreciate you plugging it. Sometime one spends the time to make these type of videos and it remains questionable if it helped anyone. Post a picture of your collection so I can see how it came out!

Small world after all, but I suppose this would be site to run into you. I'll take pictures soon once I finish painting my gaming room. I tried to drill out the centers like you did, with no luck. They just kept cracking and shattering. I manually had to pull the teeth with needle nose pliers..not too bad. I put one Velcro thingy in the dead center where the plastic was removed. Works like a charm and the cd case has no bulges. Do you think you'll add more covers to the template? I swear that video was a godsend for me.

I think I may have been 5 games or so short of having all the U.S.A. Hucard games on the template. At the time, I couldn't find good images for the missing covers. What games do you still need? CD based games? I'm sure we can fill in the gaps for what's missing.

Got it all take care of. I was missing Impossamole, Dead Moon and Cyber-Core. Found pretty good art work from here http://game-oldies.com/play-retro-games/nec-turbografx-16 that I could just plug into the template. Thanks gain though. Very much so appreciate it.
