As far as I know, I don't think the Xype 'range' is gonna have a definite design style. My Gunfight one, for instance, with the primary backg'nd and pic window, is a bit of a one-off. feel free to use it of course (I probably will ), but i think the only constant here is gonna be Xypes logo (incidentally - you can either use that one or, like gunfight comp, something based around epyx logotype) In any case, as this isn't strictly a 'first party' Xype game - as existing Qb owners will testify, I wouldn't wanna impose my scribbles on his great game  i think I'm right here, Manuel and Andrew? Please feel free to correct me if I'm way off  [ 12-31-2001: Message edited by: liveinabin ]

Hi there!Great that this contest finally started. As for the 'Xype' thing: It doesn't need to be the same as on the Gunfight cartridge and the cartridge doesn't have to use same or similar style as the Gunfight one. Here's a second example, the label of Xype release #03, revamped by David Exton: Greetings, Manuel

ehmmm, well, branding?being graphic designer and former art director of an agency i surely know about branding. but i think maybe marketing should be taken out of the homebrew section. wasn't it marketing that splitted the atari team when it was bought from warner? f*** copyrights! we're havin fun with 20 years old carts. making homebrew carts isn't a big deal, rather friendly timewasting for the gaming community. i don't think randy has a villa in the bahamas just from selling carts. and i haven't really heard of any hard offences against homebrew-programmers. we should watch that our little homebrew-world doesn't interfer too much with that, and remains a great portion of fun, not limited through all the marketing and business restrictions ....
