DDR CD Jackets/Covers Recreation Thread

First post updated with new jackets.

Um...we are probably gonna have to let the backgrounds be used for the remaining E-ROTIC songs. Them album jackets are um...well....they ain't gonna work... *cough*

Also, we may have to use the backgrounds for some of the other artists too, as I can't find any pictures of their albums anywhere.

Plus:

UPDATE 1

Good idea, 3x3. I completely forgot about the MIX jackets. We can use those, and I'll add them to the zips I send al2k4.

I'm doing the variations (Club. ver.2, with beatmania IIDX). I need that font (IIDX)

OK, that's good enough.

I know exactly what you're talking about. Is it really that much of a problem? Some of the graphics used in DDR aren't much better.

I only found 2 that are decent -- one on the first page here, and the other is a GIMME GIMME GIMME single jacket. Almost every other E-ROTIC jacket is not PG. We're talking stars covering naked women's cleavage bad...and that's the ONLY thing covered...

This is awesome work, but I just want to point something out incase you aren't aware of it :



The red frame of text on the left of the image isn't actually part of the cover. It's a seperate slip of paper which is placed between the CD case and the plastic wrap it comes in. A lot of Japanese albums have them, and they usually contain a marketting blurb about the album on one side, and adverts for other music CDs on the other.

They usually obscure part of the album art, and obviously aren't part of it, so for perfection's sake, you might want to use different scans, that don't inclue them? ^^;

Yeah, I'm aware of it. I was weary about adding the jackets with the li'l slip on the edge, and we can decide if we wanna just cut those off instead, which won't be a problem. If I had to vote, I'd vote to cut 'em off. I just put these up to show what I had found.

Remember, these are preliminary jackets and are up for modifying. Everyone's input is welcomed. :-)

You mind if I work on Euromix and Euromix 2? I have a lot of promotional materials that I can scan if I need to!

Sure! Any images you can find and use is welcomed. It's a community effort since I know I can't find these things alone.

Random notes :

I made sure to use CD artwork and not the art from vinyl releases (Konami did this with EZ Do Dance, so I assume it's best to follow).

Some of them are photoshopped to remove unecessary text, and move or resize the dimensions of text.

When I did the EuroMIX logo, I realised that the size and position of the logo within the box is important. Konami were really consistant with this when they did the official versions, so I think we should be too.

OK, these are good. I'll add them to the EuroMIX collection.

Worst, folder, ever

First post updated again with new jackets. I also want to get people's opinions on the following:

1. Which of the following jackets would you think is better to use:

LET'S GET DOWN / JT PLAYAZ


2. Also, whomever is proficient in Photoshop, is it possible to edit this jacket?


If you notice, the artist has 'VS. DJ SOREN'. Can we get that removed to use this jacket, or should we stick with the background?

3. SMILE.dk have multiple songs that came from the same cd: BOYS, MR.WONDERFUL, and PETIT LOVE. Since BOYS and BOYS(EURO MIX) use slightly altered versions of the same bg, should we use this jacket for BOYS?


If so, we can keep BOYS(EURO MIX) and MR.WONDERFUL's background the same with no changes.

This one.

This one.

*LOL* That will still be the background. Though I admit I like this better than the actual artist jackets I put up. But still, whichever of the jackets y'all like more we can use. I kinda like the 2nd more as you can actually see the artist name and song title.
