Im glad I could help, you could also use card stock for a stronger box but pic it not as sharp, I will print one up with each and update later.


Did you ever end up printing one of these?



i did, i used heavy card stock and it worked nice, i tried to make some snes ones and my size was off, but i will still work on thrm later. I have a lot of projects right now

1.  Make templete from http://www.templatemaker.nl/ this site lets you put in your box sizes.  I saved mine as a PDF so I could use PhotoShop. Here is the templete that I made. I measured a box I already had to get the sizes. 


2. Add the art you want for your box using PhotoShop.   *Edit: make sure you change your DPI on the templete that is made, its only a 75 DPI change it to what ever your photos are before editiing.

3. They will be to large to print on one 8x11 sheet of paper, I used normal full sheet Photo paper, so use print preview and move the pic around to fit one half to the page. Then repeat.  


4. cut on the black lines, fold the dotted lines.  to see the lines you can either move the templete to the top layer, or print the templete on the back side of your art.  really up to you. 

5. Glue the tabs together (making a tab on the second sheet also to fit them together) 

6 Fold and done  

here are some photos of just the box alone, I didnt add any art just for proof of concept.
