StingingVelvet: I seriously sometimes just sit and look through my collection for no reason other than just to do it. The way I touch the original Fallout boxes borders on being classified as cuddling.

That said box images wouldn't do much for me, chances are if I love the game that much I either have or want the original box anyway. What WOULD be cool, for me anyway, would be custom disc images so I could burn a backup and then put a disc label on it.
I'm completely the opposite. Even when I was still buying physical copies of games (haven't bought a single physical copy since 2004), the box was the first thing I tossed in the recycle bin. I can honestly say that I haven't even downloaded any of the extras GOG offers on the games I have bought from them (except for manuals). Pretty pictures on cardboard or on my desktop aren't what I buy games for. I buy games to play them.
Considering, that Mobygames is providing box art scans for most of the games in their database, I doubt it would be that hard to get permissions to provide box scan. And I don't necessarily even expect GOG to find original marking less art, I'd be happy to see good quality scans of box art.

Not that hard to do actually, some color labels for print, and b/w versions for lightscribe. A matter of creating a good standard for those labels, and starting a thread.:)
