Hi! ths is my first post, I'm Claudio from Chile!

I want to begin to work in the reconstruction of boxes of the games released by Atari for Atari XL microcomputers.
I found on this group this covers of the link below, but i ignore if there are more available (if more are available, that would be great! Someone has the link? I have not found more).

Anywhere, is there any available template for this kind of boxes to work in the reconstruction of some boxes? (Like template available for Atari XE boxes on this forum)

Thanks in advance!

Yes! great work! This boxes are for Atari XE series. Do you have a template for Atari XL series (grey boxes of the link, I think is your work too)?

Yes those were mine too.  I will check tomorrow - I almost certainly made a template, but it may need to be tidied up a little.

Here's the PSD file for Assembler Editor, which I believe has all the layers for the Atari and Nintendo styles.

Let me know if you need any help.

Thank you very much!

These days I have been restoring a couple of scans, I don't know if the work would be of good quality to share, I am not a professional (it is not vector work, it is pixel by pixel repair of a high resolution scan, images 500Mb  and 200Mb app)

Basketball has low resolution, but with you template I will create a better cover
With this covers the entire official Atari releases for Atari400/800 is complete in The Cover Project

Thanks again !!!
