I just created a new cover for the instructions. Let me know what you all think before I finalize it and remove my name.

What does the name do?

Looks good to me, but I'm no expert on US manuals.

It would be really good if you could post this in the other thread by the way, to keep things together :)

Maybe the "call 1-800-255-3700" text could be replaced with "visit planetvb.com" or something to that effect, since Nintendo no longer supports Virtual Boy and Bound High! was never released either.

That looks extremely nice!

I think that the design, minus the "doesbenfoldfive" name, should be left completely intact. All original U.S. Virtual Boy games and manuals conformed to a certain standard, so I think that this manual should conform to the same standard.

I'm agree with HorvatM , "visit planetvb.com" will be the best option .

All in all, it looks pretty good. I see a few issues, though:

There's some kind of shadow that looks like the word "IMPORTANT" just to the left of "or service". If it was mirrored, I'd say it was bleed through from the scanner's lamp, but it's readable There's a similar blur that I can't make out on the right side of the same line.

They probably won't even show up in the final printed article, but better safe than sorry, right?

Also, the moire pattern from the half-toning on the VB logo doesn't sit right with me. I don't know what printing process is going to be used, but there is bound to be some kind of dithering that'll probably play havoc with it. Shouldn't be too hard to clean up by hand, rescan at higher resolution, or duplicate using the font I made.
