Reed, for the love of God please fix VGBoxArt or sell the site to someone who actually cares and will keep up proper maintenence of the site, get rid of the bots, and overall improve the online community experience. The site is falling apart and you know it! Our most respected members are leaving because of the site's downfall! Fix it Reed! Fix it before it's too late and the site perishes forever!

#2 That doesnt matter. The whole reason why I made this Dear Reed box was so that it would be a legitimate box (no matter if Billy Mays is on the cover or not even though he was like a God and a great source of inspiration) but this box was made to look like a legitimate box so Reed would have no good reason to delete it because it doesnt break any rules
#5 At first I didn't agree with it either but hey you gotta do what you gotta do. I also put effort into it so it wouldn't get deleted for no retarded reason. I'm glad you guys like it though :)
I honestly think these boxes need to stop. Now.
However, when I clicked on the link in the recent comments and saw Billy Mays with the sun behind him I laughed, alot.
#9: The whole idea was to get Reed to respond. Whether or not they were an appropriate method of doing so (probably not) or if it actually worked (also, probably not) is irrelevant since the issue at hand as been, at least partly, resolved.
#10 I know what they were intended to do and i know this one has missed the boat, i've been following it i assure you. My point is that they were all a waste of time to begin with as you, i and the rest of the site know they would have had a negative effect on what they were supposed to do in the first place. Thus making them to begin with was a pointless idea.
Well, out of all of the "Dear Reed..." boxes, this is the best, obviously. It's a bit odd, but I am sure you weren't going for 100% commitment on it. Regardless, it's not bad, and I know it wasn't made for showing off, and it's really not too bad.
I'll be honest, I'm getting tired of these "Dear Reed" boxes like everyone else, but you gotta love Billy Mays and that lovely sunset... *Sigh* Billy Mays... If only you where here...
Even though; just a 'dear reed' notice, i still think it's pretty decent, though i'm not familiar with the art work used (except for some screenshots), and the text description on the back could be better. Still, it's pretty-ish. :D
While I do agree with you guys that the concept is old, note when I uploaded it. Back when the whole Dear Reed this was going on. Idr where the inspiration to put Billy Mays on the cover came from, it was mainly a spur of the moment kind of humor addition. I'm glad you guys like the box though because effort did go into this...mainly to prove a point xD

The OxiClean commercials suck without Mays.

Although I don't agree with this form of getting Reed's attention, I actually quite like the box >_>.

#7: There's no point to them anymore. Reed responded, and that's that.

#8 there was no point to them in the first place.

Like I said, they didn't do anything anyway, and were all deleted from the database. It's all water under the bridge now.

Well this one is a legitimate box with effort put into it, so it's not breaking any rules, thus won't be deleted

Not a big fan of the whole "Dear Reed" concept.
And I doubt you care about feedback of the actual box.
Aand I don't get the whole Billy Mays thing so.

No.

It's okay as a box but the text on the back could be better.
