Hi G.i.A.m. - welcome aboard the board

Hehe, nice little pic; kinda reminds me of Abe from the short lived Oddworld series.
Unfortuanetly I've never seen any other minidisc lables so I can't compare or know how well it'll fit, but I'm sure you know what you're doing and we'll look forward to checking it out in colour

- Yeah I was thinking the exact same thing the other day. Basically all there used to be were platform or shoot 'em up games in the days of the C64, Atari ST and Amiga, but now they've all but vanished.. But maybe that's a good thing? Turrican did rock though didn't it? ^_~

That's definetly an improvment already, by adding some colour. I really like that Graffitti style title too- are you planning to ink that one and colour it as well?

Yup Inked and Colored it will be .
but I'm not sure if I Ink it or Trace over it with the vector Tools. Mabey I do both and take the better looking.

turrican 1/2 were two great games and the Int.Karate series was cool too (loved the realistic point system).But my favourite C64 game was Bruce Lee Loved it.
gladly there are Emulators which can give you a good fix in the nostalgie department (but its just not the same as the old ones .)

should look really cool when it's done - i don't think i've ever seen an official MD cover - given that buying albums defeats the point of md's in the first place - mind you i do have a copy of the skull and bones on one and the limp bizkit "before they were shit" album has a sticker from kerrang on it - and they look really cool - ppl actually think they're bought mds.

actuly that was one of my Ideas letting People believe that it is a prerecorded MD.

Not much people even heard of them, atleast I heard of em. But only 'couse year ago there where this old man with a white beard that speaked to me in a toned down voice "Legends tells of some MD's that weren't Empty in the begining. those were forged by the (sometimes)Evil Sony itself.its been said that the MDs holds Pleasure and Power in form of incredible, Perfect mixed music in them.
many searched them and some people say they found them in a mysterious Land were good Anime series are shown a Land were Good games could been played, Crime is low and the police is your friend.
Poets called it the land of the sun, But non of those who hunted for them,
ever made it back (either they died or they spended all the money for cool stuff and hadn't enough money for a return ticket)."
thats what the old man told me. and here I am trying to capture a bit of the beauty and Power of those legendery Mds for my unperfect dupped CDs.

Ok back to the subject I have just finished the thing and will post it tomorrow in the finished work area.

so read me tomorrow
