I posted this else where but received no answer so I figured I would try here as well.

I am looking for a vertical cover for a SNES game called Musya. Has anyone made a cover for it.  I found some artwork so I can make a cover but I don't want to if it has already been completed.

Here is the link to the art work I found

Wow this place is like a gold mine of covers! Can't believe I never came across it before. It's just a damn shame they're all lower-end resolution .jpegs.  :-\

300dpi isn't enough for ya?  Any bigger and hosting them all would be a huge chore.


Also, if this helps, I did a JP cover for Musya.  I can provide the raw scans if you'd like too.

Looks cool, but Im looking for the standard layout, so it matches the ones I have already printed.

All done everyone please check for errors, as its getting late and i am getting the red eyes.

They're just a little on the choppy side from the compression, that's all. Believe me, I'm still very excited for the link. There's literally dozens of covers in there I'm chomping at the bit to get started on, I just hate that they'll essentially just be place holders and won't be up to the site's standard.

I like how the Japanese cover you made has manga style art on the back.  It might be interesting to replace the screen shots on the back of the cover I made with those.

This is the best I can do with what I can find for Winter Gold, and I decided to make a new Megaman 7 cover as the front of the existing one just doesnt look like it's in focus to me.

Looks too dark, so I lightened it up some

Definitely needs a little level adjustment.

So I went through and looked at a few of those SNES covers I had downloaded from that site in the above link and as far as the DPI goes, all of them are only 96 dpi. Am I overlooking something?  :-\

Are you just saving the preview images?

You need to click on the Mediafire/Box/etc. links in order to get the high res images.

Every time you mention abandoning doing horizontal covers tiktektak dies a little inside.  Do both if you can  ;)
