Xypher, what font did you use in your image for the words 3d real time strategy ? Ive been after that font for ages
And ive been staring at my hw and cata case since the start of this thread trying to come up with something, homeworldy lol. You had the same idea i had just i thought it might be nice to have hiigara in the centre, and couldnt find a decent fleet pic. Keep working on yours man, its looking fab !

Can anyone suggest a way I could accomplish the eclipse effect I was going for on my second pic? I feel like the edge of the black sphere is too defined - that it should be letting more light bleed into it to augment the sense of the intensity of the light behind, but I'm not sure how to accomplish this. I'm using PSP, not PS, but if someone can just describe how it's accomplished in general terms I might be able to figure it out from there.
I think Agrippa's one is the best. It's surely the most eye-catching of all!!!
Seriously: Xypher#1 and Vijil#1.

hey vijil, what program are you using? i love the first cover, but the drop dhadow looks... boxy. almost sort of pixelated. you see what I mean? you can see squares in there.
oh, and ohaunlaim, I can't see your pic.
#107
Yeah where DID You get them Zurg?
Spectacular additions! I'm tempted to start up Paint Shop Pro. Maybe I'll post something by the end of the day.
Ill post about the moon and planet in about and hour cause i wannn see some ppl guess before i give out an answer :devil:
Hint: not where.....how

all of these are way! better than the Relic box. Outstanding in fact. I personally like the blackbox with just the logo. Only homeworlders would know what it is therefore leaving the first production batch for us.
#111
I like the art, good art for a box cover.....
Anyway, why don't creat a "vaygr" and "Hiigaran" edition, just like Black&White had. I would double the revenues for Homeworld2 sales and make a add-on more likely
The Dark one has Arrived.
Thought I'd give it a shot. Here's one.
It's a shame the moon is so small. It would have looked good if the template was a little bigger.
I'll have more later:angel:

For those of you who cant seem to see my entry into this thread, I have pm'd for possible hosting. I apologize for any frustrations that have been incurred due to my using geocities. Have patience and you may yet get an eye full.
Oh, and I absolutely love vijil's first entry. White boxes are one of my absolute favorites (likely because they are so rare - but thats beside the point.) And I tend to prefer simple, straight-forward, clean art with subtle-but-undeniably-powerful touches of style. Vijil scores high on all points. I kick myself for not thinking of something similar first. Kudos for vijil !!
Vijil - I love the first one! Though I must confess it has the feel of a PS2 title in its art. Superb.
Zurgnoff - this was the design I had thought of as well, mimicing the original box art.
I like this one

for anyone who was wanting to know how i got the full pic of hiigara and the angel moon i used photoshop to fill in what wasn't there if any one wants the pics give me your email and ill send them to u
That one just above is outstanding Fox, I'd buy any game with that on the cover!
~Zombified~
man i wish i knew how to make planets and all that neat sorta stuff like yall got... but i cant make one til next week after the quarter ends... i hope thats not too late
#119
Here's an obvious one:
I'll do a "real" one after I finish the Outsider page.
#120
OMG? You're going to finish an outsider page???
MadProgrammer, very nice, I so like it.
More updated one

I like it fox... much less painful.
The ships seem a bit disorganized though... kinda scattered about like they're heading in different directions.
#123
gg Fox! Can anyone stop this machine?
*Boris Mode* I AM INVINCABLE ! hehe
The ships, i just copied them, but realised the looked exactly the same so i tried making them look different, obviously it failed lol.
Vaygr time
#125
could someone make one that says for Mac only, or instead of cd-rom it says 57 floppies.
That one looks alot better Fox. Very nice.
I love the wings silhouetted against Hiigara! Beautiful!
Hmm, firey

3D Corporate Fucktard Strategy, i like it lol, worthy of Gamespy Aracade.
#131
lol Mnementh!
Fox: your latest is incredible!
#132
Yeah....except Karen BURNS! NooooOOOOOOoooo!
I like the Angel Moon with HW2 through it over the blackbackground, and Gyo's first 2. GG everyone!
Hey Fox very nice work with the vaygr box
are you using photoshop to do that stuff? if you are i can give you a really kick@$$ fire effect you could apply to the ms
#134
These are all ridiculously beautiful, and I would buy them all, but so far my favorite is EmmteeMoe's all the way back on page 3. Imagine having many different box covers each with a different schematic of a ship like that. It would be amazing with all setup on a wall.
This one is the win so far imo:
Congrats Fox

here is what mine looks like so far:
It still needs touching up, but i think it is pretty good, considering the fact that i don't know much about photoshop.

Another beautiful one. This competition is really turning up some surprising results.
Relic should just release some screenshots and or renders and just let us make their boxes for them
its true. u guys do work like the pro's.
everyone of them would make a fine box.
#140
Ok, done some modifications. I fixed the shadow and added a semi transparent white layer under the text (which is larger and centered). I also put all the right stickers in place, and moved the relic logo to its proper abode at the top. A nice little highlight has been added to the bottom bit.
I think this is starting to look quite good!
OK, so here it is:
Oh and by the way, the font is OCR A extended, a standard windows font which looks nothing like this until you halve its height/width ratio.

I love that one except for that gaudy Relic logo at the top. Go out on a limb and change it to match the theme.
#142
I think it works as is, since there are lots of other yellow bits.
Were so good at making this stuff we should hold a weekly contest on who can make the best pic
#144
Pimpster, that would make a FINE poster! I think the other guys are right in that the phrase "Epic real-time strategy" or something like it seems to make it look more game-boxey, but your composure, focus rather than clutter, and color choices would make that look right nice pinned in 11x14 format up on my wall..

#145
and a black version
#146
'White' version looks better
If relic would try to get free boxart from fans, that will be the lowest thing ever, they'd probably make history.
The current boxart is okay, it gets your attention, it does its job.
My day is soo sh*ty, a friend told me that halo2 wont be out til next year, then i checked on the internet and it turnes out it is.
im not suggesting they should take it for free..... mabye give the person they pick a free copy of the game or some money or somtin
personaly though i wouldn't mind giving them a few hours of photo editing for free....after all we kinda owe them for taking the time to make homeworld and do a good job of it
#149
simpler is better
#150
No Conditioner is Bettah!
Sry I just had to say that.
Beautiful Vijil, SIMPLY beautiful, Relic developers tell us what you think!
