(This is one of my 1st times trying to do raw scans of boxes so hope this is what people need)

I checked Back(2) and Front (5).

Scanner setting seem to be OK, as no bad moire effect.

But they both are out of focus.
To prevent this you must flatten the box and scan with heavier weight on it.

Thanks for checking my work for me Arseen. I didn't know how much I needed to flatten the box out to get the scanner to get a clear image, what weights do you use on yours? About the scans I just submitted, do you think they are useable or since they are out of focus they are trash?

Also do people need the cartridge covers & label when I do scans or its not even used? Just food for thought for the next time.

the flatter the better.

As a weight I use hard cover book that is bigger than the box, but not that big that it woulkd rest on the edges of the scanner.
Then I put some more heavy books totalling maybe 4-5 kilos.

I re-checked all scans:
The front ones seem to be that much out of focus that they are pretty useless., back ones could probably be combined to make one usable image, label are scans are very usable.

But do scan front and back again with heavy weight, and with few different settings, so we can see what is the best setting to use with your printer. And you can leave extra space around the image, maybe half inch.

Just updating my post:
I know that I had mentioned that I will post the manual by Sunday but I had to reinstall my Operating System. My computer was not functioning properly. This reinstallation has set me back two days now. I am finishing the manual cover now. I promise to post the manual soon.

@akuma632:
Arseen is correct, the scans are blurry. Thank you for sharing the scans with us. I am wondering if you can scan the manual for us. I do not have a copy of this game's manual. Thanks.

I will try to re scan the box sometime this weekend the with heavy weight

Sorry again for the blurriness. I will also try to scan the full manual this weekend too. Do you think anyone will be able to make the Mickey cover for the UGC after I get some clearer scans?

I can make Vertical minus the back text (maybe I can do that too).

And if you are after Horizontal version I'm pretty sure someone will make it.

I was hoping for a Verical cover (I like the look and I like having an SNES logo on the spine) is your able to make it. I will try to re scan the box if that helps

It seems my scanner is in storage. Should be able to scan both Carmen Sandiego boxes Sunday at work. Well, all four actually. Two regular size game boxes, plus the bigger outer boxes that held the almanacs or whatever.

Not too bad, 2 things.

Minor oire effect present -> use descreen option (aka de-rasterize or Moire removal)

Some blurriness -> put the cover between hared cover book andi sit on it a minute. Then scan the cover with some wegh on it. (not a joke!1)
