I don't have anything special, just put them in a dvd case and write the game name on a piece of paper for the spine :P

I'm sure you get great uniformity that way. ;)

My approach is to just put it in an empty and coverless DVD case and leave it in my closet until a cover comes around.

Oh you know it, especially since my penmanship is so bad it looks like a different person wrote each letter :P  I only have three games left that need covers though so it's not that bad.

Yeah same, I even try to write the console logo on the side too, but that usually fails :P
For the most part I only have 5 uncased ones and they are either left blank until i get a cover or they get a temporary print from a crappy cover online.

haha I actually remember doing that back in like 6th grade for "The Suffering". Needless to say my art sucked back then and it didn't turn out so well, but lol maybe I should take a stab at it again :P

I was going to say that it does look like a girl's handwriting.  The curvature of the "W" from the wii is a dead give away.

btw, this artist is a little celebrity now   ;)  look how much we have talked about him/her
