Not if you already have a PAL Super Nintendo - which I assume you do if you have PAL games. A PAL SNES power cable will work with Japanese Super Famicoms and Mega Drive 1's as-is.

Here's the "Strike" trilogy. I ended up doing the logos from scratch so they're as close as I could get them (the Urban logo being the toughest). I also had a heck of a time getting the rotor blades on the Urban cover to look halfway decent. It prints out well.
Desert Strike (NTSC/U.S./Custom)
Jungle Strike (NTSC/U.S./Custom)
Urban Strike (NTSC/U.S./Custom)

As for using VectorMagic - I have never been able to get VectorMagic to make an image usable unless it was a very simple image to begin with. Anything with complex shading, like this Dead Dance cover, would just be completely ruined by VectorMagic. I just found the Noise Reduction feature in Photoshop to be much more efficient that VM.
As for using the JP product number, barcode, etc, I went with it because I was using the Japanese name/images. That's pretty much all that was. I figure if someone imported the game (Which is a good choice, considering 'Tuff E Nuff' had a ton of content cut from it) they'd probably want it to go with the rest of their collection. (At least, that how I do my collection...)

I see you're point 7k but the problem is how to define the section and region etc. where to put the cover on our site.... You know filing under JP with english backtext would be kind of wrong/strange but filing it under US with JP barcode etc. is kinda wrong too....

I would have thought JP custom was OK. As the cart itsef inside the box is always going to be JP, and the box is just custom to look uniform.

Hmm.... Jup you're right.... JP custom would propably be ok.... If it would be in a jp SFC template it would be even better and more obvious otherwise people could get confused....
Anyway there still is the problem with the low res front.... Maybe with dantealis front it would be better.... :)
