template for cartridge art?

[kisrael]

Anyone have a ready to go template for an atari 2600 cartridge?

 

Al mentions that he needs at least an 1/8" bleed minimum. I guess ideally this could be shown on a template...

I'm assuming you've seen the templates on this page?

What do you mean by template? Are you looking for an Atari-style label that just needs artwork dropped in and the text changed? Or just a blank file that's the proper dimensions?

Hadn't seen the Go FIsh templates.

I was looking for something a bit "purer"

 

RUnning the #s Al gives, assuming 300dpi and a 1/8 bleed margin (makes the end label tight!)

 

Atari Labels at 300dpi:

Main Label:

Width: 2 3/4"=825 px

Height: 3 3/8"=1012.5 px

 

End Label:

Width: 2 3/4"=825 px

Height: 9/16"=168.75 px

 

Bleed:

1/8"=37.5 px

 

So, for working, I'd say

MAIN:

750px * 937px usable, 825px * 1012px full

END:

750px * 94px usable, 825px * 169px

 

So if I start with the 750*937 dimensions, than expand canvas to 825*1012, I should be set.
