I wish I could give you multiple +5s for your selfless contribution to "jackets".

Thanks.

Sorry for the bump. Also, sorry if you were waiting for DDR/DS Universe jackets from me, but I decided to use to ones Tyma posted.
I have questions though. Are there any jackets for these songs that have the Arial font + UNIVERSE bg? (for continuity)

DDR UNIVERSE:
Beside You
Everytime We Touch (Radio Mix)
HOT LIMIT
Indian Summer
Koibito
Return of the Toe Jam

Dancing Stage UNIVERSE:
Acceptable in the 80s
Caught by the Fuzz
Change Channel
Chelsea Dagger
Girls
Hate To Say I Told You So
Lonely at the Top
Monster
Rock Steady
Superfreak
The Creeps
unique jacket for Dancing Stage UNIVERSE

Also, I'm wondering if you have any UNIVERSE 2 jackets.

I haven't done Universe 2, because I never got around to re-rating those songs on the X Scale (Universe 2 is actually the only one I don't have done). I only did Universe re-rates and graphics quite early, because it's one of my favorite DDR games. I think I did those KO songs with the Arial font along with the rest, but my SM folder has the ones that were created and posted near the very start of this thread. My Stepmania machine might have the Arial ones. I'll check.

I definately didn't do any of the licenses with the Arial font. I went out of my way to keep continuity with Konami's jacket choices, so anything not present in a previous arcade release prior to uses the song's CD Jacket, instead of Konami artwork.

It's ok, don't worry about it. I made jackets for the songs that didn't have Arial ones.

I guess I'll do the same for the rest of the UNIVERSE songs (excluding UNIVERSE 3).

Had these done but never posted them.
During winter break I'm gonna try to finish up all the files that I had queued before I got busy. You can see what's left on this post.
Dancing Stage Fever
Dancing Stage MegaMix
Dancing Stage Party Edition

The group jackets for MegaMix and Party Edition are kinda bad.

I took some time to do the jackets for Supernova-X for the CS.

All I did was resize and a little cleanup. it's a good set to update. They are .rar zipped.

Hope it helps!


*PS: updated the download links.

Here's some series folders I did, most of them being ones that weren't on chewi's uploads, and some of them being alternate versions of ones that did have them, namely ones that had their title screen. The ones for MAX/MAX2/SN/SN2 are for the US CS versions.

Enjoy!

Made a jacket from scratch for Space Maco, based on the banner. Not sure if it's up to the standards of the other jackets people make. Sorry for the bump.

Apologies if this thread is really old and additions are unnecessary now. I didn't even think to check if anyone had created folder jackets for game versions beyond the official Konami ones, and whether to try to sort beyond the latter.

These are some jackets I threw together before knowing about this thread, and I think all of them have been done already in some form, but these are my takes that may differ and some people may possibly prefer.

Disclaimer: I'm not much of a graphic editor.



I tried to retain the original appearance of the numbered blocks, but I stretched the coloured background ones, which I don't think looks all that bad.



I chose to try stretching part of the image, like above, instead of cropping. This may make the text a bit too small and fuzzy though.



Probably my most excessive edit. I stretched the top part of the explosion to fill the upper part of the jacket, while trying to retain as much of the original effect as possible.



Extended the sky instead of cropping the sides. Unsure if this makes it better or not.



Extended the floor. Probably my most boring-looking edit as it makes a lot of the lower part of the jacket appear rather barren.



I edited the lower part of the buildings rather than cropping too much. Once again, I'm unsure if this looks better than a straight crop.

I really hate being "that guy" and do appreciate all the hard work people put into the jackets but there is one I notice that sticks out in Stepmania that is missing a jacket and it's Baby's Tears, the Japanese version.

Alright, some of my contributions.

: Part of the HD DDRMAX-Extreme Videos project. The font for "SARINA PARIS" isn't accurate... but then again, neither is the font for B4U's jacket.

: Stretched rainbow ends and added two more circles. And I've found out it doesn't have the artist text... it was accepted anyway, though.

: Tiled the striped "chunk" most of the background is made of.

: Part of the HD DDRMAX-Extreme Videos project.

: Carefully tiled the diagonal lines. One of the stars is cut off, but....eh... it's hardly noticable.

: This background is mirrored many times. Getting rid of the copyright text was, therefore, easy. Meanwhile, I carefully took "TESS" out of the banner and slightly blurred the black outline to have the anti-alias effect.

And once again, if anyone can help me, here are the remaining Max2 licenses I want to also provide quality jackets for. The red ones are the ones I'm not worthy of. (The yellow ones are ones I need fonts for.)

A MINUTE: Whoa, that heavy distortion....
DRIFTING AWAY: This one is sort of accurate, just gotta fix the diamond pattern ().
IT'S RAINING MEN: Too much waves. I'm also so horrible at the background texture in the original movie, and it'll be visible when the height of the picture is extended...
LITTLE BOY: Same as DRIFTING AWAY. This one's text seems more friendly, though.
LIVING IN AMERICA: This one is actually in progress and should be released shortly, just gotta break apart the image into the many pieces the original background did...
MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE: Uuuhghhh. This background movie (Spiral2) is a fucking nightmare.
MORE THAN I NEEDED TO KNOW: I actually have this one ready, I just need to compile it.
NOTHING GONNA STOP: The current jacket looks blurry. Once I get the fonts, this one should be up for grabs.
SO FABULOUS SO FIERCE: I don't have the fonts used (I'd appreciate someone telling me).
THE REFLEX: Trying to figure out what's going on with those letters (a pattern of some sort?).
THE WHISTLE SONG: Ugh... that watercolor texture is also a nightmare to work with... And I could easily whip this one up otherwise.
THERE YOU'LL BE: I... fail at this one. I can't get my mind into making the original background (Geometry1), even though I know I can in I tried. I can still do this one, though.

Here are specific details and reference videos for all of the songs I am definitely not able to do if anyone can work magic with them (I doubt it). I don't want to use any of them because they'll look all shitty when they have to be scaled to be 256px tall instead of just 176 px.

IT'S RAINING MEN (Almighty Mix):

I don't have the background texture.



This pattern also appears in another video that helps piece together how the pattern needs to move. This video is used in LITTLE BOY's banner as well.



MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE (KC Club Mix):

Huge mess. I sort of know how to make the spirals, but that texture used....jesus christ. Anyone who gets a hold of this original asset is a god, I've looked all over the internet for it with no luck.

The movie in it's banner, however...



I've had completed for a while. However, I don't want to resort to using the banner assets unless there's really no other way. And from the looks of things, I might have to for this song...

THE WHISTLE SONG (Blow My Whistle Bitch):

I don't have the texture used here either.

Here is what I believe is going on with it.



Some messy watercolor texture is mirrored and then wrapped circularly. The purple line is where the sections are mirrored.

Even then, it's STILL totally ambiguous because the test image I presented has a seam... and this texture does not. There's no way around this, the movie is used in both of the graphics... It's just impossible. Bullshit like this and MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE make me wish I could get ahold of the original assets, but I've scoured the internet many times, googling "abstract movie/texture/etc." in Japanese, using Google's search by image feature, but I just...can't find anything.

bump >_<
