    Very nice and an excellent idea for a blog/project. Especially like the Death Pit cover, but they are all good.

    I saw "Blake's Seven - Ice Diamonds" and got excited (huge B7 fan, never knew there was a Speccy game), until I found it on WoS. I was hoping it was a text adventure!

    Anyway, great site and well done. :)

    Ta muchly! Yeah, the Blake's Seven game's pretty good for a type in. Amazed no one ever quilled an adventure though. ho hum, who knows....

    If it's a 'cut'n'shut' cover using original covers as source material a cover takes no more than an evening or so. If its from scratch ( like the Andre's night off one ) that takes a lot longer.

    I've got a bit of a stock pile now so there will be at least one a week for a while to come.

    I'm also planning a monster 'Miner Willy' collection, pulling all the ( at least 120 ) fan made games together in one set, across 10 or 11 tapes, with cascading spine art.... Been thinking about doing that one for YONKS... so now its officially in the pipeline.

    and thanks again all for the king words too :D
