NCAA Football 2010 Custom Covers (FCS)

[sikolec]

With the release of NCAA Football 2010 just days away and the new TeamBuilder mode, where FCS teams can now be playable in the game, I have decided to create some Custom Covers (featuring present and former players in the FCS).


Here is my first attempt with former Cal Poly WR Ramses Barden:

Feel free to give requests for players and/or comments. It would be helpful if your requests included clear pictures for me to work with. Thanks xrotatehx

[sikolec]

Here is one of Armanti Edwards QB of App. St.

[phoenixphanatic21]

Do you know of any Elon covers?

[phoenixphanatic21]

Hey could you make a Terrell Hudgins one for me? Here's a picture you could use for it.

Love the first 2. Nice work to you and BigDmo9999.

[Dukie95]

Actually, UR's on the back cover, for real.

I decided to do two for Terrell Hudgins. Let me know which one you like better. xrotatehx I was trying to go for a cool effect in his visor (the one with his home jersey) but it didn't work out quite right. Oh well.

Here ya go:

Slight modification to one of them

[Gringer1]

These things look great! Really makes me wish I had editing skills. Anybody willing to throw together a Georgia Southern one with the PS3 template? I've got a Lee Chapple pic that might work. http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh170/Icemonk_2008/?action=view&current=Chapple-2.jpg (http://s256.photobucket.com/albums/hh170/Icemonk_2008/?action=view&current=Chapple.jpg)

[sikolec]

Here is your Lee Chapple of Georgia Southern. I couldn't decide if I liked the eagle or not so here our both:

Holy *****! Both of them are so sick. I too wish I had the skills to make these kind of photos. I don't know which I like better. I like the first photo of Terrell (in the away jersey), but I like the second background better (the one of the view from behind the fans), so I'm just gonna say I love them both. Great job!

[Gringer1]

Thanks dude, you rock!

[Big Dawg]

Can someone make one using this pic?

[TheValleyRaider]

I'd be curious to see if you could do this one with Greg Sullivan and Jordan Scott :)

[sikolec]

Thanks guys! And nice avatar phoenixphanatic21 xrotatehx

Just curious if you liked the eagle or if it was too much Gringer1?

And I'll get to work on the FAMU and try the duo for Colgate. haha We'll see how that goes xsmiley_wix

Here is your Florida A & M one:

[Gringer1]

I actually do like the version with the eagle. I did a little cutting and pasting to turn it into a full front and back cover in the PS3 format. I'm going to print it out and see if it works as a viable replacement. Thanks again Sikolec.

[ASU3481]

Hey man can you do one of armanti edwards. the pic is on my signature. one more thing can you do this one with the full spread. so i can print it off and put it in my box at midnight tommorow.. i saw someone do this with a ps3 version but i want a xbox 360 verison. if you could do this it would be great.. thanks

Ps your work is sick!!!

[Uncle Rico's Clan]

If you could create a Griz cover with the PS3 style that would be awesome, I like the Mariani catch picture from the National Championship game but its more of a horizontal picture so I don't know if it would work. I do have some other pictures if this one wont fit correctly.

Also, if you could use this photo as the smaller backround picture that would be awesome.

Your work looks great, thank you

Those are sweet pictures. How about Mariani's 1st career TD reception. The one handed tippy toe snag his sophomore year? Hard to argue if any GRIZ had a more exciting 1st career TD. xthumbsupx

A quick update for you sikolec. Thought I'd let you know Terrell Hudgins has apparently really liked your photos, so much so that it's now his new facebook picture. Keep me the great work man. One day, maybe you can teach me how to do this.

Not to be a homer but this is my favorite of the bunch. Mainly because of the awesome picture quality.

The Hudgins' (home jersey) also looks really nice!

Yeah A LOT of how they turn out is picture quality. It is hard to find High Res pictures of FCS teams.

[lancerTXST]

May I request a PS3 cover of Travis Houston, with the stadium mask of the other pic (with at least the 'txst' if not all of it)?

Much appreciation!!!!

I need to locate the pictures first.

[mtgrizfan4life]

I just got my game last night, preordered from Gamestop. Can anyone tell me where to find the Gamestop code to get extra slots for teambuilder? What does it look like? Is it on my receipt? Any help would be appreciated.

BTW, thanks to those of you who took the time to put real names to your rosters online? I was able to download all the BSC teams, NDSU, and Appalachian State so far. I want to add more FCS teams but cannot until I get the bonus code promo through gamestop.

I wasn't aware of a GameStop code... there is a code on the back of the instruction booklet, but I can't get mine to work. For some reason half of the letters are backwards too...

[mtgrizfan4life]

The EA code you use for the normal slots in team builder is on the back for the manual and has to be entered as it appears. It is 16 digits and will only work if you include the ----- with the numbers and letters.

xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx Mine was in the following format

4 capital letters- number 3 letters- 3 numbers letter- 4 letters.

I still have no idea what the code is for the gamestop promo though?

[CrunchGriz]

Here's one from a better angle of Mariani's first career TD catch, an amazing one-handed snag in the back of the endzone, and a sign of things to come, as a soph:

The gamestop promo code is located on an additional cutout card that they give out when you pick up your game. I had to ask for it and the girl at the counter looked confused but found it. It had a 16 digit code on the back that you enter in the "Presale Code" section of teambuilder. If I were you I'd take your receipt back and ask them for it. She had a stack of them in a drawer.

[CrunchGriz]

Okay, here's a PS3 version of one of Marc Mariani of the Griz with a better picture of his first TD grab (although not as dramatic):

Thanks to all for the griz covers, that Mariani one handed catch for with the alternate angle is amazing, I dont think I have ever seen the picture taken from that angle.

[mtgrizfankb]

your the best thank you thats so awesome

Hey, could you post the link to your cover template. Several of us Bear fans were playing with this years ago and would love to see a UCA one. I can make these, I just need a good template. Thanks!
