firebug Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 You could theoretically just print them out on glossy paper and paste them on yourself. Any laserjet printer should be able to do the job alright if you set it for photo quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dirty2600 Posted March 23, 2005 Author Share Posted March 23, 2005 The 8-bit classics offer for me to send them the art and they print the labels sounds reasonable but i need this done on about 30 games and how would i get the art for all of em?

dirty2600 Posted March 23, 2005 Author Share Posted March 23, 2005 I guess I cant really ask for perfection on these but the catrige scans are a picture of the cartige, their not the art itself so the colors will be off. I'll see what I can do with photoshop n such to clean em up and I'll get back with my progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Franzman Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 In many cases you can make a better image by compositing the image of the cart label with the art from either the box scan or the manual scan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonie Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 I did it about 7 years ago with a cartridge scan and an inkjet on Avery adhesive backed paper. It isn't glossy, but it's held up and hasen't gotten gooey like activision labels. do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philflound Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 Nothing personal, but I'm against making labels. That is unless you put "reproduction" somewhere on the label to not deceive anyone. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
