Box Shots

Do you think they are worth using for marketing your products?

Also, if you have photoshop, those that do can use this template (its not perfect, but I like it) I made freely, its not much, but every little helps? :)

there are 3 versions: version 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0. version 2.0 is the best, the newer versions create weird looking boxes and are harder to use, in my opinion.

ooh, I'll have a look at that, didn't think of looking for a tool to do it :P

The problem with boxshots is that customers can think that they are actually getting a boxed version of your game. I've had that happen even though I don't use box shots.

If you actually ARE selling a boxed version of your game then box shots are good. But then you could just take a picture of the box :)
