This cover was personally approved by me so it is high quality enough mister "how many covers did you do yourself in your time here"?

Sorry if I offended you  ;D , but I meant what I said, quality of this cover's front is S***

I'm talking about this version: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=8646

No way this would be approved now, front is grainy and it gets even worse when printed.

And true I haven't done covers, and I am ashamed to admit that my PS skills are non-existing.  Only what I can do is provide raws.

It's not that bad. Actually I printed it and it looks decent enough.

The problem is that the raw for this cover was not of the best quality to begin with. It was high res and descreened but unfortunately it still didn't look too good (some scanners aren't too hot for some covers). If someone provides a better looking front I would gladly swap it but still Akumu did not do too bad of a job! So appreciate his work and effort a little bit!

Maybe it's my printer then, but no it doesn't:

I guessed that.
OK I admit maybe S*** is too strong word, but not good quality

Best I can do is to provide label scan of the game: http://www.mediafire.com/?7cshkrr93k7a8c7
It's missing parts of the cover.

Rest of the cover is good.

I do he has done many great covers, few of the best actually. This one just is not up to par.

Sorry, not trying to anger anyone.  ;D

Is there a site you know of that sells glossy paper in legal size that works on a laser printer? The glossy paper I have now is only letter size so it works with smaller covers, but I can't get UGC covers to fit on it. All the legal glossy stuff I find says it's for inkjet printers and I've been told it's not good to mix the two paper types because some inkjet papers have coatings that can melt inside a laser printer and ruin it.
