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....

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.

One consideration is contributing what we have done here and putting on that website.
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 :D

I was hoping we could make a Fack Ebay edition insert :P

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.  :wink:

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:

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.



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

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.

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.
