Adding a Printable Section?

[Eggboy'13]

Who else thinks it would be worth it to have a section with only printables? Or maybe just make it a filter switch under the search bar?
Because it's somwhat agrivating when I'm looking through an entire page of the box just to find a printable! (I'm sure this happens to lots of users)
So yeah, I thought maybe Reed could add somthing to that idea.
My 2 1/2 cents,
thanks.

Great idea. Idea: Up and away!!!!!!!

It's a good idea, but it might be worth waiting more time for the printable versions to get more popular with artists.

No, I wants it NAO!

Seriously, E_G has a good point. There are not really that many printables.

This may be kind of a chicken and egg problem.

For those reading this, do you post printables? If not, why not?

I have on I think about three of my boxes. The reason not for the others is because I don't think they would work well if actually put on a box.

In the past, I didn't because my boxes weren't hi-res enough to make a printable... they were only around the size of an index card at full size. Now, I make nearly all of my newer boxes at printable resolution, I just don't bother to do it because 1) At full resolution, my files are too large to load to this site and 2) Having a limited internet connection means I can't go loading huge files for no reason. I would probably add one if asked, or if I made one for myself, but for the most part it's a feature I rarely use.

[tleeart]

I rarely don't post a printable, unless it's something that would be odd or impossible to add a usable printable for (collection box sets, retro games, etc.)

I don't know how useful it would be to add a feature like that, though. If I were going to print a box, it would be one of my own for one of my own games.

[super-mega-hyper-sonic]

I'm liking the idea!

[Pan]

Pretty much all my boxes are printable... go print them out. :3

I think the feature would be more use to people who don't post on the site and just want to find printable cover for a game they like.

[shadysaiyan]

For me.
-I'm never sure on the exact dimensions, because i've printed them out at a bunch of different sizes which are supposed to be exact, but not for some reason.

-I dont feel like it, though that would change if i felt really proud of my box like i did with inFamous

-All my boxes are usually at the resolution you see on your screen, making it bigger a somewhat changing the quality would matter once printed out i guess.

[Hawt Es]

I have added a few printable boxes. Usually just for the hell of it.

[TheSlyder]

I've uploaded a printable along with my presentation since the ability has been available. I wish I had access to my older hard drive so that I could upload the printables for my older boxes.

[Weemick]

My first BA came with a printable, I think it's a pretty good idea, but, what are the dimensions(For DVD covers and for Bluray)?

I'm gonna start.

[Vic1293]

Well, I'm dumb so i dont know, like the dimensions and what not, but i'll be glad to make them if i knew how

yeah, i guggested somthing like this, it is a filter that only shows boxes with printables, I also suggested one where it seperates PAL and NSTC boxes so you can find a suitable printable easier!

Well for me, usually the game is somting a bit abstract and never going to happen, when I do a real game, it's just too small, plus I never bother to make a printable anyway. :/

The thing is, sure you could get new covers all you want from the coverproject, or some other site, but frankly, this site's put most of those to shame.

[Scorpion Soldier]

I mostly standard make printables, i start the original box as a printable, and later make it smaller for the upload, for me it's easier to work in detail that way than to directly make it for 3D and stuff.
