Welcome back! With the forums back up, I think it's time to revive my poster thread as well. It's been quite a while since I've added anything to the project, but lately I felt the need to get back into it. Over the last few years, there's been a lot of improvements in terms of image restoration techniques and upscaling tools, and looking back at the old posters sometimes makes me cringe at how they look by today's standards. That's why, aside from adding new posters, I'm going to update existing posters with improved versions every now and then. For any newcomers, you might want to check the archived version of the old thread to get you up to speed (which in turn links to even older threads on the ScummVM forums, Inception-style). In the old thread I've refrained from including Star Wars games (with Rebel Assault II being the exception), but over the last few months I've restored several SW artworks that I think deserve to be included. Both these and the posters for all Indiana Jones games have been moved to their own categories. Some quick jumps: LucasArts original games Indiana Jones games Star Wars games Non-LucasArts games To make downloading easier, Mix'n'Mojo is now hosting all the files themselves, so you can just click the thumbnails for a larger view, or right-click/save-link-as to save the full-size poster directly. I've set up a GoogleDrive containing all the posters if you prefer that (which will also keep old versions of posters I've updated and replaced in this thread). Sadly, this seems to be necessary: Using these artworks for commercial purposes is NOT PERMITTED. I constantly see my restorations used on cheaply produced merch all over the web and even in official magazines and books, which is really not cool (and quite unprofessional, if I might say so). Just show some common courtesy and contact me if you want to use any of the material. We can surely work something out. Sorry about getting all disclaimery for a moment, so let's get to the posters. Enjoy! (This thread can be easily linked to using the URLs http://poster.mixnmojo.com and http://posters.mixnmojo.com)

Just dropping in to say hello everyone! If time permits, I'll drop by more often. If not, let this be a footnote in internet history, lest anyone dare to say that old acquaintance shall be forgot!

Ron Gilbert put some old unseen docs on his website. The TimeFly may have been written between Maniac Mansion and The Secret of Monkey Island. https://grumpygamer.com/time_fly Reading this, I think I've already seen that kind of idea somewhere...

I sadly only have it in GIF format, but here is his old TSB logo.

Thanks for sharing Jake! I have to admit that besides the confinement due to COVID, your livestream also had some impact on me for wanting to bring The Legend of Monkey Island back from the dead. Speaking of which, while designing the website at some point I got too ambitious and wanted to create a Dark theme that would turn on automatically while Dark Mode was on. I even got to the point of creating the night version of the banner I used on the top, but then I realised it wasn’t worth the effort. I still think the banner turned quite alright though.

It's 1 for me, if only for how much it makes me feel like I'm eight years old again. I got to the rest of the series much later on in life, and while I enjoy 2, Curse (Murray is the greatest video game character to have ever been created), Escape (to a certain extent, although to be fair it has been many, many years since I played Curse) and Tales, MI1 makes me feel like a kid again. When I saw the trailer for the Special Editions, I got a little bit teary-eyed. For whatever reason, during the COVID outbreak, I started looking back into MI games lately...I caught a replay of Jake's stream on Twitch and then I was completely hooked again. Funny how it coincided with the grand re-opening of the MixnMojo forums, and I'm happy to see a dedicated group of folks who also want to talk about thirty year old games with complete earnestness.
