Nah, you didn't miss anything, did you see the title of this thread?
Just kidding man! But seriously, I'm working on some Full HQ sets right now, and I just talked to fix about getting the size implemented, so if everything's a go, you will see some sets start to pop up here! I just got a Nintendo 64 set done yesterday.
I am using most of thecoverproject.net's sets for a base at the moment, converting them, cleanin' up a few, and re-naming them to the "no-intro" romsets. 
Holy s&%$, this is just epic. One of the most helpful threads i've found on the internetz. I wish i could give back something to this community.
Uploaded 500 HQ spreads for NES for Mastershoes to work with 3366x1200 300 dpi. When everything gets resized on par with gametdb standards, Miigotu mentioned he is working on a cover downloader for emulators
here is the list of ones he has access to now: http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=n9PkXCWp

Just a heads up to all who may be intrested, I'm cleaning up the Game Boy classic cover collection by mastershoes to HQ and adding some missing covers as well as (J) [T-Eng] cover titles. I should have the upload posted here by tomorrow. @[member='mastershoes'], I'll send you a personal link if you like which I redone like 94% of the game titles if you want to upgrade your other GB cover collection. The link I'll post here will just cover the ones that really needed some attention. Great work tho guys. Keep it up
Yea for sure. I personally can't wait to see how this is gonna work out!wiiflow is gonna reboot the wii emulation scene

wiiflow is gonna reboot the wii emulation scene
Honestly, emulator front-ends never revolutionized anything in my opinion, it does not make the game play better or improve emulation, and I always found out the excitation about browsing a "full ROM collection" to dry out pretty soon when you actually start to *really* play the game you like instead of staring at all these covers or showing how "cool" they are to friends
That's said, the amount of work done here by mastershoes is incredible, I can't imagine how much time you spent on this
The last few days I have been retouching my Sega Master System boxcovers to remove bad levels, colors, stains, creases, everything nasty. I have enclosed these to share, they are sized to 1024x680 for Wiiflow HQ specifications. I have ommited sports games and japanese language titles.
Enclosed is 288 SMS boxcovers, full listing of archive at http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=QtVLdpCr

Scouring various forums for HQ NES boxart spreads, I have compiled a collection of 500 of them to share. These are HQ sized at 1024x680 for use with Wiiflow. These are not grungy raw scans, many are fanbased reproductions or have been cleaned up.
List of files includes are listed at http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=uS12bBdZ

So as you can probably see by Brenry's post, there's been an update to this page!
-Update 05-01-12 Added Full Cover Sets for Wiiflow-Mod's "EmuFlow"
A lot of things are still in process, still... a lot of people want some full covers. So here's where everything's at so far. They are pretty damn good overall for the short amount of time getting them together, but a lot of them also need improvements and "cleaning". Also, technically they're not to the correct aspect ratio, Although they're damn close... Some of them came out to 1090x680, or 1061x680 with maintaining the height ratio.. and wiiflow wont accept those dimensions, so they have been slightly shrunk to fit the 1024x680 mold of the 'flo, but it's hardly noticeable, and looks a HELLUVAH lot better than 2D covers. Boosh. Please read the first post for more update information, and a video preview. (I will update that preview by the weekend with some NES, SNES, and even some SG-1000 (lol) covers that i grabbed today - I'm cleanin' up the SG-1000 now, they're pretty beat up, and it's a small set). Also, special thanks to Beast @ Dark Umbra for gathering up the N64 art from thecoverproject for me. And also to the man, the myth, the legend.. Eke-Eke for all the sega artwork.
Have Fun!

Bladexdsl: You might want to hang out on the Wiiflow IRC channel. Frequent boot.dol updates are posted throughout the day by the devs so you don't have to compile yourself. The server is irc.abject.net in channel #Wiiflow.
In case you are not IRC savy or use Mirc, the direct web chat link is http://www.wiiflowiki.com/Special:WebChat
Fix and the rest of the devs are always there and very helpful on questions.

I'm seeing a problem, with the covers, the spine needs to be 58 pixels, or it goes over the front and back slightly. Or are you making them for if the coverflow dimensions get set differently?
