It's either my mind playing tricks on me or a peculiar case of the Mandela Effect, but I could swear there was a website dedicated to computer magazine cover disks from all around the world that even hosted the said cover disks. I think LGR mentioned it in a video of his? The site itself had a very basic look, black background, oldschool, 90s style HTML. Can't find it anywhere. Any ideas?

Win98 rig: Athlon XP 2500+/512MB RAM/Gigabyte GA-7VT600/SB Audigy/GF FX5700/Voodoo2 12MB
WinXP rig: HP RP5800 - Pentium G850/2GB RAM/GF GT530 1GB
Amiga: A600/2MB RAM
PS3: Slim, CFW, mostly for RetroArch & PSX games
PS2: Fat, FMCB

Sounds like a copyright headache.

I have a small collection of such images (from UK magazines). Some I downloaded from various internet places, others are images of disks I got on eBay. I once posted a program from one of them here, but it got deleted by mods because copyright. That's going to be a problem.

Is this too much voodoo?

Not sure about cover disks, but there's a site about vintage magazines.
It's a site, sort of an archive, dedicated to world's radio history, I think.

KultCDs (mostly German), Abandonware Magazines (French), Old-Games.SK (Czech, Slovak). But they have partially migrated to archive.org, save for the French one IIRC.
