The back legal text can really vary from cover to cover.
The legal information "set" that is currently in the template was based off of "the best of" Legal Info.
I just took the basic legal mumbo jumbo from a few covers so that a few lines of text could be changed for each new cover.

Sorry if you found the Template to be confusing.  All the layers are labeled and grouped though  :).  I tried my best to categorize everything into groups to avoid the confusion.  I just didn't want to merge any of the layers so they could be easily edited and be very in depth.

Glad you decided to use a template for the first time.  Good job on the cover tiktektak

Thanks... I suppose the template is just confusing to me because I'm not used to working with so many layers.... I think when you used to it such a dedicated template will be great.... The big problem on PAL SNES covers is though that there were so many different co0lors used that a template would be gigantic....

For the legal text stuff it would be great if there would be included every legal text which isa out there on US SNES covers(pretty impossible right?)..... Anyways thanks for the great template shenske....

Getting used to the template and made another cover...

Bugs Bunny: Rabbit Rampage - US

This time it's 100% retail because I simply deactivated the layers with the legal stuff and cut and pasted the retail legal stuff in....

Have fun....

Hope everything fits on this one(maybe someone could try printing it and look if it fits correctly in a UGC?)... Had some problems with fitting the spine image....

Did you do that one from one of my raw scans that have been rotting for years in the raw section? :)

Nope was my personal scan.... Would your scan have been better maybe? Mine was pretty damaged and it was much work to clean the front image!!!!

Did you rpint the cover? Is everything allright with it?

Again it's me....

I just finished off another cover which was an insane amount of work.... Especially the back ingame images were pretty damaged and I needed quite some time to tidy them up.... I think all in all the whole thing worked out pretty well after all.... Have fun!

My box was in quite good shape. I guess the scan was alright but nobody bothered. I didn't print it, I'm still trying to convince myself to import some UGCs and there are still a bunch of my games without a cover on the site, so there's no rush ;)

i finished this one about a week ago i just forgot to preview it

The Legend of Zelda - A Link to the Past




on a kind of unrelated note, should i add a "player's choice" option in my template for previous & new covers?

Again I did one:

This time it was a real bitch(as all Super Famicom covers are).... I tried to make it look as retail as possible without stretching the front or back too much(I hate severly stretched pictures)....

I think after some hours of work it looks not too bad.... The only problem I wasn't able to solve is to connect the wing of the front and spine without making it look crappy so I left a space....

Have fun:

Dragon Quest 6:

This time it's for a great Enix game which unfortunately was never released in Europe....

Have fun....

Another new one....




This cover was a real bitch so please be generous that this time the cover is good but not perfect....

I'm talking about this background consisting of rockets and more rockets and more rockets.... A hell that cover took me three days to clean and tidy up.... :'(

EDIT:

To the seasoned Imandix users.... Which case type is the best to use for UGC covers? :)
