There's a misspelling of "its" on the back cover of Policenauts (PSX):

which we can't fix yet :((

I don't see why we just don't give admins ftp access, they seem more than trustworthy.

We have FTP access. We upload final covers via FTP with a thumbnail, then use a web client to add it to the site.

There are a few mistakes/spelling errors/ non working links that at this moment in time, admins cannot fix. Snowcone is working on a new site layout and i believe when that happens, we will be able to repair stuff like this.

Perhaps a greater question would be why there wasn't enough foresight to anticipate that covers would occasionally need to be replaced or deleted by somebody other than the head admin.

IMO, the problem isn't poor site design (it can always be fixed) but lack of time for Snowcone to go about fixing it.

Crash Bandicoot (PS1)

This is the Crash Bandicoot 2 front cover, not Crash Bandicoot 1.

I just tried downloading the new Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance II cover for PS2 by VBeniaminov, and it
downloads but the size ends up being 1.02mb instead of the projected 1.03mb and it won't open...?
Figured I'd mention it here, since it's a pretty kickass looking cover. I tried multiple times with the same result.

So that ones bugged out too has it. Should be more like 5.5 mb in size. All we can do is pm Snowcone to fix it.

Hello!

I love the site, and everything you guys do here :).  Thank you!

I just wanted to point out that the cover for NES - Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Pool of Radiance is missing its file when the Download link is clicked.

Thanks for the info but this an old problem we know(at least I saw it once ;) ) but unfortunately non fixable at the moment. I think it isn't working because of the "&" in the filename, something our database doesn't like....

1. NES game Tetris's spine is half centimeter too right. It doesn't sit right in case. (I mean cut half cm from left edge and Add  half CM to right edge.

2. NES game Kirby's spine's Nintendo logo is filled black while others are filled white.
