Hey guy's, I'm currently working on a project for my collection and hopefully for others' too. This project is inspired by a cover editor on here named Wiggy. I saw his DS covers and fell in love, but one thing stood out to me. His Super Mario Collection Box. (I'll post a link to the picture.)

I downloaded it and threw it directly into Photoshop and altered it to fit around numerous 3DS cases. (I use 3DS cases instead of regular DS.)

I made one to fit 2 3DS cases and 3 3DS cases.

Right now I'm trying to make a box for Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow, but I'm at a loss of ideas and I need help. Could someone help? I'll put a download for the 3 3DS case template below and can you guys come up with anything? I want something that basically revolves around generation 1 while still keeping it official artwork. (basically no fan art) something like if Nintendo themselves were to make it. Thanks in advance!!!

My Template:

It's not that bad.. I had to work on the template a bit.. But The Spines were the most prominent piece.. So I spend more time on that.. I like it.. There is one box that will need to be 4x.. the UNOVA generation..

I did a little research.. I knew there were different regions for each game set..  So I just named the generations by the Region of that Series..  It actually is a lot nicer that "Generation 1" etc..  I listed games in Alphabetical and the non "Launch" titles from each generation LAST.  so Yellow, Crystal, Emerald, Platinum, V2.  Since they were released after the first games..   I may make a similar set for the other games  (JPN Green & Remakes)  Maybe call it Pokémon "Remix".

http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Regions

Generation I - Kanto Region
Blue, Red -> Yellow

Generation II - Johto
Gold, Silver -> Crystal

Generation III - Hoenn
Sapphire, Ruby -> Emerald

Generation IV - Sinnoh
Diamond, Pearl -> Platinum

Generation V - Unova
Black and White -> V2 (Sequels Technically)

Generation VI - Kalos
X & Y

Ohh and a quick note..  The top and bottom of the box were different sizes.. I'll figure out the appropriate size, but just noticed it while I was positioning the Box covers on them..

There probably were a few mistakes on the template. I just kinda through it together based on sizes and stuff but im glad you've taken an interest in it.

Nice!! :)  I like it!  I would saw that the box spine should be oriented the other way.  But no big!

I was going to try and work in the Traininer and Rival to each box..

The drop shadows are also a little off from.. I see there is one on the spine, and the spine seems to drop one on the rear.
