Gonna have to wait another day. The guy providing the nice scanner was out celebrating the 4th a little later than he originally planned. In fact, I'm just getting home myself.
If I can't get it by tomorrow, I'll either take it to Kinkos or harass the nice ladies at the library until they let me use theirs.

just out of curiosity, do you happen to have any other classic game boxes that you may be able to scan?
Renzatic on 7/7/2008 at 00:24
I don't have many big box games anymore. The few I have left, excluding the LGS titles, are:
Diablo
Everquest
Everquest: Shadows of Luclin
System Shock 2
Baldurs Gate
Baldurs Gate DVD (which is almost exactly the same as the old BG box. But if you want it for archival purposes, you've got it.)
Introducing the Humans
Unreal
Vampire: The Masquerade: Redemption.
Zork Nemesis
I'm sure I have more. I'll dig around in all the old boxes and closets around here and see what I can find.
They're all of varying quality. If I bought it new, they'll be in near perfect condition. The used titles vary. If I can ever get Anachronox scanned for you (still trying, by the way. Hopefully I'll get it tonight), I'll pull 'em off the shelf and see which are worth scanning.
Also, I'm fairly certain I have the box for Under A Killing Moon somewhere. I've got the manual right here, so the rest shouldn't be too far away.

You've got Anachronox at 600dpi. There are a couple of small problems, mostly involving the glossy finish on the box and some sticker reside along the bottom left corner of the front cover, but it's nothing that can't be easily fixed.
Enjoy it. :)

found it, looks like it will work great... If you do happen to scan anything else and upload it there, let me know.

Awesome job. Shadow Creepr will be happy knowing her kindly gift will now be spreading joy 'round the world.
I might have more for you soon. I've been collecting old PS1 games, and I'm wanting to switch them over from the old jewel cases to DVD boxes. I'll do the scans, but since you do such a good job on the clean up and transitioning, I'd love for you to do the graphics.

I'm not sure DX2 deserves a nice box like that. It's better than retail.
On the other hand I think DX needs a newer and better one.

ryanpotter, wow now (
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7681) this is cool. Nice work!:thumb:
Looks like a professional DVD cover that a company would actually do.
The link Jashin posted, that's pretty neat too, but would only work if you have a multi case setup.
