Home Grown Game Inserts??

[turbogrfxfan]

haha anyone could really make a copy.  were just all lazy

I'm not sure it would be a great idea to reproduce manuals in their entirety, since someone devious enough could scan the pages all, remove the "repro" marks on the inside pages, and then produce "real" ones.

So what?  There's nothing preventing them from doing that with original manuals, none of which are all that hard to obtain.

NecroPhile already said what I was going to say, but the point bears repeating.

So it's somehow easier to obtain a real Magical Chase or Bonk 3 manual to reproduce versus buying a $3 repro and doing so? Of course, anyone who REALLY wants to can put in the time and money to try and scam, but I don't think those scummy people should be given the tools to do so easily.

These are really nice inserts....Can you do the same thing with other platforms....or maybe share some of your secrets to the success you have had in making these look so great....

To anyone who thinks these will show up on ebay and sell for way more...just report the sellers.....buy one pay with paypal get your money back and see what happens....should be interesting...

Its just all about making your collection look fresh...Having old raty games or games without manuals.....just makes a collection of any size look foolish...sure Ive got a parasol stars, but the spine sticker look terrible.....give me a repro of that anyday to make it match the rest....(found here earlier)

Chris, for the other platforms there already is alot of the work already done, all you need is photo paper, and for some games some universal game cases. Here is some stuff I did:



And here is where insert graphics can be found:

thecoverproject.net

You will find a TurboGrafx section there, but they use DVD cases (which I don't really like). I like what we have done on this website. One consideration is contributing what we have done here and putting on that website.

Oh by the way - this has been on there for YEARS and I have never bought something from ebay that had a cover reprinted from this website.

I have been a graphic designer since '93 so i will take some credit but finding a good printer is key, find an exclusive printing shop that has been around for years, they know there shit and care about what there doing, and with that comes quality.

No these inserts are not for that website.. just for here.

PS: motherg and duo-r... PM if you want more than what i am offering for inserts, we can discuss

I'm not even close to 200 posts
But if I get any of the bootleg copies of Sapphire I would be intressted of a "bootleg" insert (why not mark the insert "BOOTLEG" on the front lower right corner?)

And so one small step closer to 200 posts

I was hoping we could make a Fack Ebay edition insert

I was more referring to like the GOT insert, YS 1&2, etc. I just feel bad that the TG-16 section is a bunch of DVD cases, which I think totally blows. Yet the awesomeness is found for the other consoles.

Man I love those TG16 DVD covers I need an order of the griffon Case though they didnt have one The DVD cases would be awesome for loosies

[c0ldb33r]

those cases look awesome - how would they hold hucards?

[munchiaz]

very nice. i need some of these for some of the games i bought.

[Duo_R]

I haven't tried the DVD cases for Turbo games, prefer to use Keith Courage or sports games and use Sparky labels. But those rock for other platforms.

[munchiaz]

where can i get the cases for the SNES games, and do they also makes these cases for genesis games and NES games?

[Duo_R]

Universal game cases, works for Genny and Sneak, and NES with Modding. Also fits N64.

Google it or I will post later.

[SMF]

Those are awesome Sparky, I don't need any butits a great thing your doing for the forum. Nothing worse then saying HEY COME CHECK OUT MY COLLECTION and all you have is a Huey. If these fall into ebay sellers hands just ask a question before buying the game. No seller is gonna get rich making these and selling them on ebay.

These bring back memories, I used to get old vhs rental cases and do my own black & white library printer version when I was a kid. But yours look better with color lol.
