custom game box art from cardboard to fit the retrogame collection needs

Purpose

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. For whatever reason I have scaled the gameboy-games to 110% while printing, so I continue to do so. However, in the given dimensions they should fit a cartridge including the original plastic-boxes and not just a loose cart. And for whatever other fucking reason, this does not always translates to the same layout, even if everything is equal. the "Print-size" has to be exactly 223.8x202.93mm (see screenshot).
