we were starting to miss you...

- the legal text is almost not readable

- you did use the "multiply" mode (or similar) at the logos - that's a no go! Too lazy for rendering? I guess you did try to make it look like they are printed on the old paper... well... try again, but avoid stuff like one of the "spears" getting into the logos. I'd say it's okay on the back, but on the front it's not working that way.

- the ripped and torn edges are a nice touch, but not working on a real package - at least if you want it to be ripped and torn for real. I know, I know... your "inspiration" and whatever. true, but recently you're the one talking about logic, so just wondering how such a logic-person can make such a small mistake? ANother logic one: the plastic is transparent. I am not up too date if they changed it, but all games I got sure have the green-transparent plastic. How comes I cannot see through the exposed parts at your cover?

- text makeup needs some more attention! try to find a better balance in the lines length and add some breaks. A font with serifes is fitting the design, but the serifes are breaking off pretty often. Try a text with more thickness or make the font bigger

- everyone is free of writing comments. If you wanna block people from commenting on your "crap" go to DA! How often do I have to tell ya about this?

- how comes you reply and troll once more, if you are immune?

You know Wasa-bi was only here giving you an honest critique. You should take those critiques and try to improve your box. I'm going to have to agree with what was said.

#9, I'll take the criticism from EVERYONE, but not from him! this is my free choice. I have my problems with wasa-bi and that's it! No one must interfere with it!

#10, Anyone my ass. You don't take any criticism that doesn't involve praising your box.

#10, I don't understand that at all. He is very thorough with his critiques and I agree with him comment above 100%. I'll reiterate what I thought was the biggest problems:

-Using a multiply layer mode on the logos. It doesn't look good, and it would have been much better if you took the time to render the logo out.

-The legal text is illegible.

-The text doesn't look the greatest. The font choice is ok, but the justification of the text doesn't look very good. Having it justified would look much more organized and easier to read.

-The official green borders around the features above the legal text (Players 1-4, System Link 2, etc.) If you don't quite know what I'm talking about, Scorpion Soldier has a template in the resources section that you can use for a reference.

-The blurriness of the images and tagline. It doesn't look bad until you view in full.

-I don't have a huge problem with the torn edges, but they could have been done better, especially on the back. The colors of the entire box all look very washed out and unappealing as well. The layout you have is nice, but I feel like this could be a lot better with some more work.

Ok, let me give you some criticism...oh wait, wasa-bi already said exactly what I was about to say, so just read his comment.

P.S. stop being an annoying dumbass to people who are trying to help you. If you can't handle the truth, then don't post covers on this site and go somewhere else. This way you do us and yourself a huge favor.

"You don't take any criticism that doesn't involve praising your box."

- looool! I myself know very well that my boxes are still far from being really good!

who, damn it, who ever said I find my boxes above average?

You suck something out of your fingers ... odd company here!

Again, slow to take notes: My boxes are nothing special and I will reap no praise for it! I follow only a hobby! We live in a free world and everyone can do what the f*** he wants!

...and the "everyone can do what he wants" includes to IGNORE wasa-bi!

#14, I never said you think your boxes are above average. All i said is that you completely ignore criticism, which is true. And nobody ever said that you couldn't ignore him. All it does is prove my point.

That's the last time you will ever see any help or critiques from me then on any of your boxes. Critiques are a GOOD thing, not something to get pissed at. It's people like you that make this site worse and worse. You don't want to improve and you won't with the attitude you have.

yeah... THAT's the meaning of "being immune" :D

GEEZ! And just when you think your english is bad you see someone like Knarrenheinz with his Knarren(f)art.

"You suck something out of your fingers" *lol* That should be "you make something up" or "fudge a story", but "sucking out of your fingers"?

Now this would be something for TheSlyder oder Koopa's grammar-thread :D

Anyways, it sure is very amusing - over and over again.

#23, it sure is, but you are just asking for it inside your glasshouses. If you make fun about something, make sure you don't make it on your own!

Anyways, you just showed once more who's the poor one. One word: "Immune".

Whoa Knarrenheinz, coool it. Just imagine all the comments on this website were anonymous. Would you still not take the critique wasa-bi gave? I bet you would've considered it instead of ignoring it. It's just cause its wasa-bi who said it that means it should be ignored, which is stupid. So, these are my critiques:

- the legal text is almost not readable

- you did use the "multiply" mode (or similar) at the logos - that's a no go! Too lazy for rendering? I guess you did try to make it look like they are printed on the old paper... well... try again, but avoid stuff like one of the "spears" getting into the logos. I'd say it's okay on the back, but on the front it's not working that way.

- the ripped and torn edges are a nice touch, but not working on a real package - at least if you want it to be ripped and torn for real. I know, I know... your "inspiration" and whatever. true, but recently you're the one talking about logic, so just wondering how such a logic-person can make such a small mistake? ANother logic one: the plastic is transparent. I am not up too date if they changed it, but all games I got sure have the green-transparent plastic. How comes I cannot see through the exposed parts at your cover?

- text makeup needs some more attention! try to find a better balance in the lines length and add some breaks. A font with serifes is fitting the design, but the serifes are breaking off pretty often. Try a text with more thickness or make the font bigger

Yeah, it's the same. But its YoshiStar whose saying it this time ;) gonna listen?
