Those look pretty good! I'd be curious to see a actual cost of all the work. Between printing, paper, cases and the labor I'm guessing it's quite a bit, but it looks pretty nice in the end.
But don't you miss like tetris like challange of arranging the mis-matched game cases onto a book shelf.

i would say the total cost was around maybe 60 bucks at the most on printing and casesott0bot wrote:Those look pretty good! I'd be curious to see a actual cost of all the work. Between printing, paper, cases and the labor I'm guessing it's quite a bit, but it looks pretty nice in the end.

Were there any specifications you had to mention or did they simply just print it? Your covers look real good although I might go with glossy since I'd only be printing 4 covers.kingdomheights777 wrote: i loaded all my covers on my thumb drive , took it to office depot and had them print color copies there, the quality is actually really good. Color copies are only 49cents per copy, glossy would cost to much in the long run

no specific specs really, just go to thecoverproject.net and when you download one they are already sized to fit. Just to let you know you can't really tell its glossy with it under the plastic cover...Citizin wrote:Were there any specifications you had to mention or did they simply just print it?

I'd say go with the matte paper, as you can't tell if it's on glossy when it's behind the plastic sleeve, glossy is a bit more expensive, and if you're printing yourself the matte will dry faster. I have an Epson that dries within seconds of being printed, so my creation speed is determined by how many covers I'm willing to cut out in a day (curse my fat man hands!).
