dude cutting them freakin sucksMrPopo wrote: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!).

Re: Switching DC, Saturn, Sega CD games over to new cases.
I know. I was only thinking of how it would look, but if there's not much of a difference then I guess I'll just go with matte.kingdomheights777 wrote:Just to let you know you can't really tell its glossy with it under the plastic cover...

the paper they use at office depot is different than normal paper i think, and it dries very quick and looks greatCitizin wrote:I know.

Re: PICS ADDED!! Switching DC, Saturn, Sega CD games over ....
the problem is for me is that i think that most of the custom covers at TCP totally suck. does anyone have any photoshop templates for creating your own covers? i'm really trying to have a uniform look for all of the cases and the ones online are all over the place.

They have templates for basically every system out there on The Cover Project, so if you want to make your own you can just use their template and use your own art.

I hate thecoverprojcts saturn case, i don't like the grey stripes and how they type the name on the spine....yuck....i want the original spine logo cause really thats how i identify games, by their logo....I had template for non white ones and was working on making them, but i have since lost the template and only have the covers online.

There's what I did, I'm pretty sure my printer didn't print the covers the right size though because i spent awhile getting the template all measured out.

Re: PICS ADDED!! Switching DC, Saturn, Sega CD games over ....
Yeah, I'm planning on doing this myself!
I didn't really collect the packaging as I built up my Dreamcast collection, just to save money. So now I keep all of my Dreamcast and Saturn games in a massive CD booklet. I'm gonna print out a big collection of Dreamcast DVD covers so I can show off my rather huge collection; only problem is that no one's made DVD covers for Samba De Amigo, Sega Marine Fishing, Ooga Booga, Gunbird 2, or Guilty Gear X yet. Still, the vast majority of my Dreamcast collection is covered. I'm gonna hold off on doing the Saturn for now, as alot of the games aren't represented, or are in the slim case format. I ordered a 100 pack of standard DVD cases and I'll get started on these once they come in.
This'll be so awesome! Alot of these covers look better than the originals!
