A box I made for one of my favorite Wii games. I cut out the renders myself, and made the backgrounds. I also colored the Wii template gold to go with the game.

That's pretty good.

For future notice: The ESRB on the back is usually in Arial font. Other than that, it's great.

Thanks! Yeah, I think I did Sans Bold for the back.

Start working on text placement on the back. It's decent, though.

The gamespot rating IS close to the description. Maybe I'll update it. And just wait till you see my Wind Waker box

@Carlj1497 By the way, I just noticed that the Wii template seems to have been just flushed with the paint bucket tool, and it compromised the resolution of it. You should colorize it instead. It doesn't look good.

@Martiniii332 I actually used the Gradient tool. But, I'll colorize it and see how it turns out.

@Carlj1497 Use the color tool under the Paintbucket. It'll get things done faster.

@Ergo When I colorized it, it made it look yellow. And I don't want yellow, I like it gold.

Try multiply instead. May want to lower the opacity, though.

You are getting better with layout, but there are still some problems. There is a lot of empty space. In some boxes, this works, however here it just seems as if you had no idea what to do to fill up those spaces. Diddy seems to be floating in mid air, and it looks a bit strange. Other than that, the front would be pretty good if you could fix those things. For the back, I think you just need to make things more compact, as the space between the text and the screens doesn't look so good. Overall, a decent box, you just need to work on those things.

Well of course Diddy's in mid air, he has a jetpack!
