I gotta say I am a big fan of black and while I don't own a dreamcast I've been thinking about buying one :P

Its so worth it and you can probably pick one up for ~$25 bucks. The games are good quality and dirt cheap now too ;D

Yeah, I got my dad a Dreamcast for Christmas, a controller, VMU + 4 games (Quake III Arena, Unreal Tournament, Soldier of Fortune and Blue Stinger) for $30 at a flea market. Totally worth it - I'm definitely the favorite kid now. =P j/k
Oh yeah, I like the black template. It looks snazzy and would go well alongside, say, a PS2 or Xbox collection.

Hmmm.... Another DC-case-style.... We have quite a lot allready....
Looks nice no question although the black curve on the front is a little too prominent for me....

Only an increase from 2 to 3 styles. Its good we have the standards and all but it does kind of limit the artist from his/her own personal preference. I think that everyone should still make the two standard template versions and if they feel like it they can make another alternate. Think about if we had to tell the PC covers artist they had to use the "games for windows" template even though some of the original covers came in the "PC-DVD" style.
About it standing out too much its mostly the illusion of the color. Dark colors really stand out next to light backgrounds.
Here is a comparison of how the space the front part of the template takes up.
Also, on a random note LJ42 shouldnt mind at all because he almost released a slew of black dreamcast covers too about a year ago.
