Good stuff! I've been gradually chipping away at the "top games of all time" for a while now, here are some I did earlier today:
In other random chore news, CasperJoaca uses a lot of different virtual studio tech that I added to our tools database today! For example Super VHS, Shaperbox 2 and PanMan.
It’s my first time doin this but here ya go

Makes for three check-ins today, and makes all of JonBro/Jonochrome's games upscaled.

It's a good thumbnail, I just wanna know what @TomFulp's consensus is (and everyone else's) on more derivative thumbnails first.
Some good ones here, guys! I’ll be adding them soon :)

I went ahead and made this the official thumbnail. Sometimes the old thumbnails just don't work well as a larger image, in which case it's ok to try and get something that best represents the piece. It never hurts to check here, though!
One of the most difficult areas for me is when something has a cool custom-made thumbnail that isn't anything that exists in the actual game or animation. Sometimes I'll start by searching Google to see if a larger version of the thumbnail existed on other sites - sometimes I manage to find one and can even upscale it with http://waifu2x.udp.jp/.

I'll start from the bottom of these and work my way up with plugging them in, in case you start from the top!

Update: All of them are in.
We have an over-aggressive throttle on Dump downloads, where the site makes you slow down if you've downloaded several things in a row, probably need to look into that one.

Yeah I can tell Cathode Raybots’ was Waifu2x if I’m not mistaken.
I’ll handle any others from people today and work on some of my own too!

Yup, maybe Jeff will dig something up there some day.

Sorry if it's just 3, school got in the way.
More will be here in a few hours.
Thanks, updated!
Hey @TomFulp what about this piece from your OST playlist for Cathode Raybots? Though the piece the thumbnail is right now is also quite established for it at this point.

That's tempting but the source piece is vertical so there isn't more to the left and right, don't think both the marine and raybot would fit the space.

Update: I gave it a shot anyway. Probably better than the original despite not fitting the characters in the frame well.

Updated! Funny that for how many thumbnails I've done, I still haven't done all of mine.

Ooh, maybe it'll grow on us all. The crop seems to work okay?

These two already have larger thumbnails that represent the original smaller thumbnails, so we'll stick with those. Thanks though! The best way to find games that need new thumbnails is by browsing a listing that uses the big ones - the blurry ones with a slightly taller height stand out there.

However, my upscaling program has been having problems with upscaling part two of bob-omb battle's thumbnail
I used waifu2x to upscale the thumbnail
If anybody can find a way to upscale part 2, that would be nice
https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/335509
These original thumbnails are tough ones because they aren't pure pixel art that can be upscaled (lots of jpg artifacts / anti-aliasing in the source thumbail) but they are also custom and can't just be grabbed from the source movie... I've updated both of these with the upscaled thumbnails but I'm wondering about replacing them with screenshots from the movies.
