Covers I'll be uploading: 20-30

[velvet396]

Just wanted to let everyone know I'll be scanning and upping about 20 covers tonight if I get through them all.  Just a couple are partials, the rest are complete.  About 50/50 Genesis and Sega CD, with a couple of NES and Saturn titles.  I'll update this post with the official list when I'm done.

I'm always buying games wish I'd have known I could contribute earlier.

Actually, I forgot about quite a few more... so maybe around 30 with some Cube, and PS1/2.

so far I have upped the parts for Road Avenger and Silpheed Sega CD.
Complete ups of Mutant League Football and Virtua Racing Genesis.
Everything is USA region. 
Sorry for the Road Avenger quality, the box has seen much better days, but I scanned the manual (it's mint) if that can help with any repairs.  The rest are in good shape, and Mutant League Football is pretty impeccable (I even have the 2 garbage-pale style cartoon cards the sticker on the front says are inside, I'll scan them if there's interest).

Scanning takes much longer than I anticipated at the desired settings, and I'm doing 600 dpi for everything just in case.  Anyway, might take me a few nights to get through this all...

Please view what I've upped so far and let me know if I have to change the settings.

I have the majority of the scanning finished.  I forgot my usb stick at home so I can't upload while I'm at work.
Before I sit through the upload times I would appreciate it if someone would check what I've upped and see if the quality is on par.

Thanks

Ok I checked everything... Looks nice to me.... You could maybe flatten out the covers a little bit more but it's not that bad.....
Road Avenger came in a cardboard box? Now that's ugly.... I don't really know for what case size we should resize it.... how big is the original box? DVD case size or bigger?

A yes one thing... Please up all your scans as raws because they have to be cleaned and resized....

And finally thanks for your time!!!!!

I'll be sure to up them as raws.  I've flattened them as much as I can prior to scanning.

Is that why it says upped by tiktektak for mutant league football when I'm the one that scanned it, because it needed a touch of work?

Road Avenger was a cardboard box just about the same size as the rest of the Sega CD games.  I'd measure but it's all the way downstairs and I'm going to bed.

Yup right.... You know it's not that I want to steal your property but you know it takes quite some time to make a clean and nice looking cover out of a raw scan.... So if you scan and clean and resize your covers yourself and I just have to upload them then I'll write your name in the "created by:" field without any further talking but if you just scan them and I have to do the rest(which is a little bit more work that you can trust me about ) then I'll write created by myself but I'll give you credit for uploading though.... Just look here:

understandable - the raws I have coming up are going to need some work too.  I appreciate the credit in the thread 

Not that I want to make your life difficult, it's just that some of them aren't in the best shape, but they're fixable.  I also know a guy who has the most insane collection of covers scanned, I'll have to point him toward this site.
