Nice, and thanks for using my two tutorials. I'll definitely have to update my Paint.NET 3D tutorial as I've got some much better methods that give superior results.

Edit: Also for those of you that don't use Photoshop or don't ahve a means of getting it, there are several great programs outlined in this thread: http://vgboxart.com/forums/showthrea...ed-and-unmanly

I need a Tutorial on how to make a printable copy of you're boxes.

You can't, you can only print the ones where the author of the box has uploaded a printable version.

I know, I mean a printable one for MY box, like how to make it in like paint.net.

[super-mega-hyper-sonic]

Well you take your 2D cover and use a program like CoverXP to print them out.
