@ -3,14 +3,18 @@ custom game box art from cardboard to fit the retrogame collection needs

## Purpose
The purpose of this Project is to provide Coverarts for Creating Cardboard-Boxes to fit a uniform retrogaming Collection; primarily to myself and maybe others who might find this useful. It is not intended to violate any kind of copyright law, due to the fact that all of this is meant to be for personal use and not intended to be sold whatsoever.
The purpose of this Project is to provide custom, unified coverarts for creating cardboard-boxes to fit a uniform retrogaming Collection; primarily to myself and maybe others who might find this useful. It is not intended to violate any kind of copyright law, due to the fact that all of this is meant to be for personal use and not intended to be sold whatsoever.
The Covers are either printed on thick paper (or cardstock), or will be laminated to prodive some shine and thickness to the paper.
## Usage
The project is structured in `systems`. underneath the particular `systems` the completed covers are inside the `_finished(/_printed)` folders. The files meant to be printed, are all gimp `xcf` files. Gameboy-games have to be scaled to around 110% while printing if they should fit a cartridge including the original plastic-boxes and not just a loose cart.
