Game cover critique and possible upload
<< < (2/3) > >>
Arseen:
Pretty good cover, however:

- No Only for Nintendo logos as game was released on multiple non-Nintendo platforms.
- Front image is bit grainy (not too bad but maybe not quite site quality.
- 3 typos: adorage, fonfusion and exinction = Adorable (with capital A), confusion and extinction.
- Legal text box needs correct info.
- It needs the SNS code: SNS P LE
- It needs the correct barcode
- Some tinkering so title logos are no so close to edges (front one 5mm lower (by building the purple area bigger and the one on the back moved 5-10 mm right).
- Gray bar should have 3 Sunsoft logos.
- Needs 1 Psygnosis logo somewhere suitable.
- Screenshots should not normally have black borders around the image inside the white borders... but in this case I think it's OK (altough real cover does not have those).

Here is quite bad version of back cover: http://img.gamefaqs.net/box/6/1/0/23610_back.jpg
You can see the whole back text and just bareley read the legal legal stuff on lower right corner.
Also barcode numbers can ba seen there.

Use drop shadow.

Anyway keep up the good work, but pay attention to details.
Feel free to ask advice on the boards or via PM

Yeah, yeah... I should have free time soonish so I'll then get off from my lazy butt and start going thru SNES Verticals submitted to the site, PMed to me, snagged from topics or done by myself. :P

Usually yes but some people are too lazy to type the name of the game... PEOPLE REMEMBER: The search function can not read titles of the images.

This. 

I TRY to type the name of any game cover or scan I put on this site so that they pop up in search results.
DEL 707:
Thanks for the feedback, is there anything I can do about the grainy picture? I took it off the only uploaded Snes cover.

Shame that it all seems to be a wasted effort, was quite proud of what I did getting rid of those logo's.
