Basically, I made the cover the same height, but 11 inches wide. Then, using the exact copied backs and fronts of the original covers, I pasted them each to opposite sides of the image, that way I would know the size that the spine needed to be. Once I saw the gaps between the fronts and backs, I basically re-made the red striped spine from scratch, starting on the cover side, and moving back. When I printed it out, I had to cut a total of maybe 1/16th of an inch off of the sides to make it fit. If you would like, I could send you the PSD file that I used to make the EA-sized cover. The work is pretty rough, I warn you, though. That file is ugly and was made for my eyes only. Thanks for the offer. Unfortuantely, I don't have Photoshop or any sort of editing software beyond the paint program that came with my computer. Don't do much editing and whatnot. Is there some type of program I can download for free that would open the file so I could print it?You want the thick-EA case version of Sonic & Knuckles? I could just upload it and send it to you if all you want to do is print it. I finished editing the back so it has the newly re-done back, but still has the classic front on the cover. Let me know if you want me to upload it, and I'll do it next time I'm at my computer.

Ye, I just want to print it out and put it in the case. I don't mess with editing things too much (at least not outside of very basic picture croping and re-sizing). Hence the hope that someone can make those two covers for me. I would be very thankful if you could upload the EA case version of the Sonic & Knuckles cover.

Go ahead and click the link in my signature, and you should download the file called "gen_sonicandknux_ea_2.png". That'll be what you need to print. Just remember to cut off a tiiiiiiny extra bit of the cover on both sides in order to make it fit just right.
IrvGotti452, is there anyway you could make a red spine for Phelios?? That would be amazing!
Good job on that cover btw. Thats one I needed!
For me personally it is like this. The more you ask the less keen I'm on doing the covers.We have a request forum too by the way and a request wiki. Requests should be going there because this thread is mainly for cover stuff.
Quazimoto I been working on a primal rage it'll be out soon. Also with monopoly, can you rescan the front? Maybe place some weight on the scanner cuz there are some blurry spots. 600dpi with no adjustments and descreened setttings (if possible).
