Ghostbusters. 'Tis very big, to keep the quality (I put everything, legal text, logos, everything but barcode) so it works as a useable replacement cover for whichever edition you have. The screenshots on back are taken from the recent re-release with the (supposed) new transfer, but their quality doesn't seem to be all that great. Anyone who wants to use this can resize it, as I wasn't sure how to without losing the readability of the text on the back. Distribute freely, just give me credit.
BTW, I'd love to see someone give this the "3D" treatment, since I have no clue how to.
