You're probably right. It looks very similar but without measuring it I'm not sure. I've been tweaking the cover a bit more as I learn more how to get a grasp of photoshop. Only thing I'm not happy with is the front logo. I'm still looking for a decent Tomb Raider font and a style layer (.asl) to match.

The local computer shop near me sells DVD replacement cases including ones where you can fit 10 DVDs in. It's more of a trial run but as most of the TR games I have are missing manuals it would make economic sense just to use one case seeing as I'm a tight wad :-) Plus as I'm completely new at this the experience I've learnt will help me to create some other PS1 covers.

I have a few cases that you can definitely shove 6 in without any manuals whatsoever. A 2 CD holder on each side, and a 2 CD thingy that clamps in the middle. Never had a use for it though...

I don't have a tomb raider font but will this logo help you?

Yeah, I've got a couple that hold 8. Same thing, except the flap in the middle holds 2 cds on each side. They used to sell them at my local computer shop, but they haven't had them for a while now.
Particularly useful for tv show box sets, if you want to save a bit of room on your shelves.

Yeah that's how my library holds most of its tv collections. Managed to grab a few spare cases from 'em for my FF games.
