I made a Castlevania logo in Photoshop that matches up with the title screen I made.  I'm still working on it, but you can use it as a placeholder for now, if you like.  It's on a transparent background, which comes in handy.  :)

And a quick and rough example of how it would look on the booklet cover...

Fantastic work fragmare, as always! :clap:
I have it up as the banner right now on the front page.

On an unrelated note, does anyone here know of a good quality scan of the manual for Rondo of Blood, one that is at least 300 dpi?

One of the old team members from 2003 wants to do a translation of the manual.
If there is no such a scan on the internet already (from what I can tell theirs only one) can someone here on pcenginefx make a better scan?
Your kindness would be much obliged. :)

That cover looks great. I have a question/suggestion: Would it be possible to add a filter or something to make the logo font look hand drawn so it blends in with the original artwork behind it? Something to make it look less digital, in other words.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Well, I'm still tweaking it.  I'd like to make it look a little more "organic" if you will.  Also, it'd be nice if i had a hi-res version of the original Dracula X cover background, without the original logos cluttering it up.  If anybody has one, link it up here and I'll use that instead.  The one I'm using here is only 768x768 and that's not very hi-res.  I believe there was an insert that came with the game of that same artwork, but I'm not sure. I'll also start trying to get a traycard made up too.

Here's a candidate for a new cover complete with logos and trademark symbols and whatnot.  I'd still like to get a higher quality version of the background image, though.  The best one I've found on the internet so far is 1040x1040, it's too dark, too lossy, and it's not centered correctly.

Cover looks great but I too feel there is something missing in the font.

Looks like Randa af Blaad (and the blood is a little distracting).

Speaking of "Ronda"...  Anyone watch Rhonda Shear Up All Nite in the 90's? Closest thing to porn next to MTV in those days...   =P~

Nice job Keith and frag!  I love it.  Gonna order some lightscribe discs, and burn the disc label you came up with Keith.  Awesome work to both of ya.  The inserts look really good printed out on gloss photo paper.   :mrgreen:

I don't know if the resolution is sufficient (I am le dumb and don't know how to check), but Video Game Den has a manual scan available.

BUMP!  Minor update to the cover.  I fixed the 'astlevania' part of the logo so it's not quite so jaggy on the bevel and lightened it up just a little.  :)

On a related note, does anybody know what the Japanese text on the Dracula X traycard translates to?

Okay, here's a preliminary version of the traycard I made.  Let me know what you guys think.  Thanks to Dave Shadoff for help translating the traycard text.

Very cool, are you still tweaking the "Randa af Blaad" font?  Also, will you be doing the Obi as well?

Thanks

Honestly, the 'Rondo of Blood' in the logo looks readable to me, as is.  Maybe I'm alone in thinking that.  And what's an Obi?
