PSOne DVD Cover Project

[Lumberjack42]

Okay, so I was messing around with Shenske's PlayStation Template and for some reason, I got this wild idea to make a PSOne version, just for anyone who might (for some ungodly reason) like their PS1 DVD covers to stand out even more than their PS2 bretheren.

So without further adieu,

PSOne Template Idea #1 - Horizontal



PSOne Template Idea #2 - Vertical



What do you guys think?

I think it's great. Looks fresh and stylish. Something very different from what we already have which is always a plus. I really dig the color scheme. The vertical style is my favourite of the two.

Looks good except...
"Street Fighter Alpha 3 explodes onto the Sega Dreamcast"
is out of place.

[shenske]

have you tried a white template with gray text and logos?
that might make it look a little more like the console.

good job though

I was just suing my DC one as a test since I know that the game was released on both systems, It's by no means a finished cover.

Glad you like the look though!

I was going off of the color of the system box and accessory packaging. I think the white may be too bland for this design, plus, it would just blend in with the Wii and your DC look a little too much in my opinion.

good point

i understand what you are going for, its a good idea.
plus its nice you didn't change the size of the template so the different options can be interchangable.

more options = more covers

looks good to me 


edit: i suggest that the black stoke around the white box w/ the PS logo in it be removed.

Okay, I thought about it and I think I may have come up with something that won't blend in too badly with the Other white-spined systems.

PSOne Template Idea #3 - Vertical - Off White Color



and for a Side by Side comparision



What do you think?

Both look good. Personally, I like the darker one much better.

after searching my old hardrive ...
i think almost 3 years ago i made some ps1 covers in MS Paint and i played around with something similar for a friend.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4


(FYI: as stated old cover, not 300dpi)


so maybe a dark gray and a black version, just a thought

[KaiserWAVE]

Do we really need another black version? If you want your PS1 games to blend in with your PS2 games your (i.e. Shenkse's) template fits the bill perfectly. So Lumberjack's template would be a good addition to our templates section as it is something different which sets the PS1 games clearly apart from the PS2 games.

Just my two cents though. I'm not planning to recase my PS1 games (yet ) so make of it what you will.

I don't mean a separate template, i don't think LJ meant that either. 
I meant just adding some layers to the exsisting one because they are only slightly different.

it was just a thought, we don't have to

Yeah, I think KaiserWave is right, we can just add the layers I made to your already made template, just so people can have more options. I don't think a black PSOne is really necessary.
