How do you feel about VGBoxArt.com?
ShoothimNow:
Funny how this thread was created in 2009, and now its almost 2011, and THREE new people are bashing us.
1) We allow 300 DPI Free Downloadable prints for all our visitors and members
2) We have a request forum that enables users and visitors to request a cover that they are in dire need for
3) We use Photoshop to create our covers, which eliminate and help restore JPG artifacts.
4) Our members (that I know of) don't troll others websites and randomly start PROMOTING TheCoverProject.
I mean come on guys, it's extremely obvious that you are trying to promote some of us to actually check out your website over at vgboxart. The fact is, that website - with all its entirety - is crap.
1) You cannot download ANY covers EVEN if you sign up
2) The covers are stolen from other websites like our own and plastered with a new artist name
3) Halo 3 NES box. I would pay $3,000,000 to buy that game because of how rare it must be that NO ONE has ever heard of it...
4) It's a showcase...
We interact with our users, your site just rates how crappy their covers are. Personally I would rather be able to DOWNLOAD A F***ING COVER before I would sit back in a chair with a long hash pipe and rate it 3/5 stars and complain on how bad the horrible artist did. Because thats all I ever see on VGBoxArt, are trolls

Are you blind or do you have an ego that obstructs your vision? We do not scan covers, we do this as a hobby, why is not printing a cover such a problem for you? I seriously don't give a sidways crap about how "High Quality" or "High res" covers your website provides, in the long run: we do this as a hobby. Fake games are part of that hobby, and you are implying none of us have photoshop? Gee, that must be an exclusive program to your website users and you must know how to fully use it, it's not like other people can learn to use it, can they?
Second of all, I am not trolling, learn the definition of trolling(i.e. Saying something absurd to provoke someone, even if it's not entirely true.)
And just because there are a few bad members, it does not mean all of us don't have any talent.

I say rather than beef about this, why not just have them come over and put some of their artistic talents to some good use here. Lets see what ya got that WE (TCP) can use/host. Sounds fair right?

Arseen:
THIS TOPIC IS POINTLESS

Simple.
