Don't saddle yourself with too much work. Keep the English on the back for the PAL covers that should be enough. In pretty much all parts of Europe English is the first language you learn in school after your native language. Keep it English and if someone wants Portuguese text on the back he can request it and provide you with a translation :)

i was actually hoping that this would be the response, i just didn't want to offend anyone by only having english text.

i haven't made a japanese cover in a while
here is a litte festive mexican monkey.  :P

Samba de Amigo ver. 2000


the back text is in english because i didn't use raws so i have no japanese text to work with.
if you know japanese let me know and i'll replace the english text.


as always, tell me what you think

shenske,

Great artwork on the dc dvd covers. Please keep up the good work.  Look awesome! How come these Japanese and homebrew covers are not on the site? I've been looking for some like these forever.

Homebrew: Should be obvious. These games weren't made for DC. It's a lawsuit waiting to happen.
Japanese: Maybe because the admins didn't upload them yet?
Look a few posts back for shenske's info on where to DL them.

 Sorry don't mean to get off on the wrong foot.

 Homebrew: Is all original content. (correct me if I am wrong)

 I would think there would be more of a problem with copyright infringement and plagiarism  with dc covers that are of original content.

 Thanks for your response, Berserker

 Homebrew: is not necesarelly all original. Some people have made ports of games made for other systems and categorize them as "Homebrewed". In the case of DC this is most of the homebrewed games.
If you have nothing to do... Don't do it here!

I can see that a link to the iso of a so called homebrew disc might be a lawsuit waiting to happen - but a cover 'could ' be claimed as nothing more than a concept, and is certainly no different from a custom cover that uses copyrighted logos/graphics/materials
