I run Vista Business at work and was tinkering around on the Windows Marketplace and came across this:

I downloaded the trial to install. Interesting that there is a market for something like this.

  • ...and that's the bottom line
"CDX lets you create and print CD, DVD, DVD Slim, UMD Video, Playstation 1 & 2, PSP, Xbox, Xbox 360, Mini CD / DVD-R, Nintendo DS and GameCube covers (...)"

Wow, even UMD and DS covers? have you tested it and can you recommend that programm? It sounds very intriguing.

It's definitely worth a look. I haven't printed anything yet as I don't have a printer at the moment, but the program is very intuitive and easy to navigate.
The only downside I found clicking through the program is that the images are always shown with the same dimensions. So when you open an image it always looks kinda like a DVD insert, whether you want to print a DS, DVD or PSP cover. Either you try if it prints the right dimensions or we'll have to wait until someone else does and makes a post here.

You cant create anything in this.  I dunno where they figured they could put that as part of the program.  This program is garbage compared to cover xp.
