What are some good places for huge amounts of retro box art arranged conveniently for quick sampling?

No that really doesn't work man. Well some place on the Internet might but the Internet in general is a horrible place to find a wide variety of related and quality box art arranged in a convenient manner. So many sites do it wrong.

Google is bad for it man, you have to search for a specific game and then you receive that game's box art. But you don't get a wide variety of interesting box arts from across many periods and many games.

I'm assuming you're wanting high quality scans. Your best bet is to just search for the individual game and then changing what size you search for

Nah I'm not really demanding high quality, just medium quality. Mostly I just want to weep at what we've lost now that every box art is some edgy guy walking towards the viewer instead of crazy, weird and zany art.

I wanna know why shit like this exists. Look at this huge fucking watermark over the image. Does he want us to look at the box art or the watermark? Does he really think anyone cares to steal his fake box art?

...yes. Its like those people who put their name and email at the bottom of spritesheets and say "do not steal" as if they actually made the sprites themselves.

Funny thing is, by selling those, the guy is 'stealing' off both the original game makers and the makers of the hacks, since he's selling their work without any of their approval...

But don't dare steal his boxart and booklets! Only thing he actually did often including mistakes in romhacks booklets!

Is http://www.thecoverproject.net/ not good enough?

Forces a download to hdd to see more than a thumbnail, and has no way to see many thimbs at once, so due to selection it's good but not ideal.
