Heres a front and back for Flinstones 2.  I will try to scan my label in 1200 DPI Monday at work to act as a supplement.  If these images aren't what you guys use feel free to delete them from the raw section.

Please do not take a picture from a site like gamefaqs, download it, and then upload it to the site.  all you have to do is take the link's location on gamefaqs and paste it here.  That way, when someone see's the picture in our raws folder, they won't be ticked off that the cover they are looking for is in ~72 DPI instead of 300 DPI.  Don't get me wrong, thank you for finding a picture on the web, but just link to it instead of reuploading it to our site.  The photoshop experts here do go through the raw folder daily to look for pictures.

Yea, really sorry.  I spend more time on nintendoage than here and asked if anybody would like to scan their box as a favor.  The result ended up being bad on both sides.  Guy was a dick on there just pointing me to their database scans which I knew about.  And obviously wasted peoples time on here.  Thats why I said I could scan my label as a supplement.  Either way I'm sorry and I'll just continue to leech in both communities rather than try to contribute.

Edit, I'm not a total retard, I knew I screwed the pooch when I saw the file size. :X

I'm getting ideas for doing a localized NTSC "pixelated" version of Devil World for the NES.
Here's what I was thinking of...

I've ripped the sprites and then recolor them to give it a different look as most classic NES boxes would do. All I need now is the back -- somehow. There is a European version somewhere which would be very reminiscent to the NTSC version.

Heres another idea for an NTSC Devil World cover. A label I made for a repro a while back:

That looks better than what I have thought of. Just needed to make the picture sharper. Also, I think it should add a little recoloring to the sprites so that way it doesn't looked like you had ripped it off from the game completely.

so i figured i'd add another cover for the X section. I actually did the British version even though i have the US version because I can't find good scans for the US version. Sometime i'll probably try to do the US version because there not really all that different aside from the logo.

and I redid one of the covers i had uploaded previously. I went back and cleaned up the original scan for the front, and i believe it looks much better than the prior attempt.

And now, it's mine turn to post a cover from AGCI...

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/johnsprogram.retail.nes_shockwave.jpg
This one's a bit tricky to edit because I was dealing with a orange-red neon color and a shiny silver description background. None of the less, I had used orange rather than what my scanner had scanned (which was red-orange) as it best suits the packaging.
This is my first cover to be ever made with Photoshop CS5 and it's TONS better than my Photoshop Elements 6(!) mainly because of the way it handles fonts. Oh yeah, I had completely re-typed the fonts because I'm do darn lazy to edit every individual letters; I have the darn font type btw!
I'm a bit worried about how the logo would turn out on the prints, but let me know if I need to sharpen it a bit more; I hope I don't need to!

I hope you didn't manually retype the back text:

Gamefaqs has most of them readily typed.

Nice cove though.

Is my cover completely different? Try comparing the two covers because to me, there isn't much of a difference.
