New SNES covers
djshok:
One of my favourite games, finally I got a scanner to scan the manual and make a cover for it.

Hey guys! I'm new here, but I've been using your covers for a long time now. :P I'm trying to complete my shelf for all my SNES games, and I only like to use this style of custom cover. :] Kudos to whoever came up with that originally.
Well, in looking to complete my shelf, I noticed that there was no custom cover (Actually, there wasn't even a US cover at all!) for one of my favorite games of all time, Super Smash TV! So, I took it upon myself to create my own from the scans on this site.
I know it's not the best, and it doesn't have the usual SNES grey logo-thingy beneath the description on the back, but the spine was what was truly important to me. :] How it looks on a shelf was really the only reason I made it.

Hope you guys use it! :P

Nice first attempt for cover, but:
1. Add that gray bars to the back.
2. Resize to 300 dpi, at the moment the cover shows up 72 dpi @ size of bed sheet. If printed resized to 24% probably comes out fine, so no that of a biggie.
3. Maybe loose the dudes on spine, as other covers don't have images on spine, although spine might look empty without them , so don't know.
Number 1 is the most important thing to do.
I will probably use this cover even without the changes, but still would prefer the gray bars.
SonicAdvDX:
Okay, first off, I would LOVE to put the gray bars behind the back. If you could you provide me a PNG (or a vector graphic) of the bars big enough to fit the back, I would be more than happy to include it and upload it again.
Also, how do you resize to 300dpi? I didn't intentionally change anything, all I did was take another custom cover, make it into a blank template, and put my stuff on it.
After I implement all of your ideas, in the next version I make, I'll see what it looks like without the guys on the spine. The logo is more squared than most game title logos, and the guys were on the original spine, so I figured I'd include them, but I'll take your idea into consideration and possibly make an entirely separate version without them on the spine.
EDIT: Just kidding, I figured out how to change the dpi. But, everything else, I still need help with. :]
RE-EDIT: BOY DON'T I FEEL STUPID!!! I ignored the "Guide" section, telling myself that I knew how to use Photoshop, and COMPLETELY missed the template forum. Boy, is my face red. A re-vamped version will be coming soon!!
SonicAdvDX:
Sorry to post twice, but I took Arseen's advice, and with the help of the wonderful template that this site provides, I bring to you my new and improved Super Smash TV covers! (One with guys on the spine, one without guys on the spine. Your choice!)

Hope you guys enjoy! Criticism is welcome. This was my first time making one of these, and I did it without the template, so any future releases from me are sure to be A+ works from here on out! :D
