angusjake Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Anyone know of a site that has cartridge labels that can be printed as replacement labels directly on a color printer? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oesii Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 I think that would be a big project, to get all those scanned and then resized exactly for carts so I don't know of any good pages for that. Someone did have a page for all the Activision labels so maybe someone can post that link for you. I usually just snag the cart images here at AA: http://www.atariage.com/cart_page.html?Sof...wareLabelID=964 resize and clean them up in photoshop or publisher.

angusjake Posted January 7, 2003 Author Share Posted January 7, 2003 I usually just snag the cart images here at AA Well I did just that and doh! it worked amazingly well - most excellent! They look too big on the monitor but come out on the printer very close to actual size. A little cutting to size and glue stick and its done. I don't think someone would notice the 'reproduction' label on a casual examination. So if you need a new label try this first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 So were you guys just really rough to your cartridges or are these second hand cartridges that were abused in a former life... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angusjake Posted January 7, 2003 Author Share Posted January 7, 2003 Actually I bought it on ebay (no photo) and didn't notice in the desciption "no label". Serves me right. Makes you wonder if the previous owner had an anger management problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 For the record, main labels are 2 3/4" in width and 3 3/8" in height (more or less). End labels are 2 3/4" wide and 9/16" tall. You can use these measurements to properly resize any label images you download (either from here or elsewhere) so they'll print at the proper size. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just copy and pasted in paint, you can change the dimensions but instead of changing the size of the picture, it just cuts some of it off. I think i have Photoshop around here somewhere, is it possible to just put in the measurements and photoshop will change the size of the picture or is there more to it than that?

CPUWIZ Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 With Photoshop you have the ability to scale and crop images based on pixels, inches etc. ! You can also choose what kind of algorithm is used to calculate the interpolation on the scaling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paint Shop Pro will also do this very easily, and it's considerably cheaper than Photoshop. And I think you can download a trial version from here. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
