'Cardstock' --- End quote --- Ah you're a genius! Any color recommendations? It looks like they've got everything under the sun. I'd just go with plain white, but looking at the inside of my boxes, it looks more cereal-box-gray than anything else. But I haven't seen "gray" cardstock anywhere. --- End quote --- You can buy cardstock that has cerial box gray on the other side and white on the other side. --- End quote --- Good stuff. I'll have to look for it. I do have another question, while it is on my mind. I've also heard of something called chip board, which is supposed to more closely resemble the thickness of a cereal box. I've heard that cardstock is actually more close to the thickness of an index card, which is maybe a hair thinner than what the actual boxes for the SNES are. Any ideas? --- End quote --- Chip board? This: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_board Nope my friend, do not use chip board ;) Card stock comes in different thicknesses |

Does anybody have a favorite thickness/brand/type they like to work with? |
