Is this what people are using for the CD cases?

I think It might be about time to tackle this one, too.

I haven't tackled this particular project yet either as I'm still looking for better quality sticker labels to print on. I've been using Avery Full-Sheet Labels but I'm hopeful there's something with better print quality out there. Might have to resort to seeing if Office Depot can do this for me on a laser printer. Avery labels I've been using: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009 ... PDKIKX0DER

I haven't tried the sleeves from neato, but I have used those from Guided Products:
Guided's web site: http://www.guidedproducts.com/replay-re ... -disc-case
On Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/ReBinder-RePlay-C ... ipboard+cd

These are good quality but I'm not sure I care for the embossed branding on the back which may or may not be covered by the label, depends on size of label.

I'm thinking about switching to another type available from Groove House Records that I think are more like the ones from Nugs and do not have the branding on them. I'm just not certain I like how the CD is contained as I tend to rip these ones when I take out a CD (but let's face it, once they're done they'll be put in a resealable sleeve and I'll likely only play the digital audio anyway).
Groove House's web site: http://www.groovehouse.com/shop/blank_sleeves_wallets
On Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Groove-House-perc ... ipboard+cd

Unfortunately I can't find any 3-disc chipboard sleeves online anywhere. I emailed Nugs with no response which seems to be what I've heard from others who also tried to reach out to them. I've called Guided and Groove House and they have no plans to make 3-disc cases so that means I'll resort to buying these single cd sleeves for any show that has 3 discs:
Guided: http://www.guidedproducts.com/replay-re ... -disc-case
Guided (single only) @ WalMart: http://www.walmart.com/ip/ReSleeve-Disc-Sleeve/21017464
Groove House: http://www.groovehouse.com/shop/blank_sleeves_wallets

Below are example of a few project I've completed, but it should be noted that the credit for making these projects possible and available belongs to Ridley and others (like Lowlight79) he worked with. Also, I use an Epson Artisan 837 [update - now using Epson XP-810] to print directly on the discs and it does a pretty damn great job.

Awesome, Vic. Looks like you increased the size of label, no?

You are right. Stickers are bigger.

Looks great with those larger labels, and the colors on yours appear a lot brighter.

Yesterday I loaded a bunch of chipboard labels on a flash drive and took them to Office Depot (an office supply store in the US that offers printing services for those who don't know what this store is) and had them print the labels on a laser printer. MUCH better quality than my inkjet printer. Here's an example:

Thanks for the uploads!

I'm planning on making my own batch, but some of the artwork is cut off in the uploads. # 7,8, 12, 13, 14

It looks like they are in portrait mode, instead of landscape. It would be awesome if you still had those, would love to tackle this project.

Thanks!


sorry bout this,
I will do again, just give me some days...

I figured this was probably the best thread to ask in. Really hoping someone can help me out.

A few years back there was a french Pearl Jam site that had various fonts that PJ had used over the years. One of the fonts was the 2005 NA/SA bootleg font. I thought I still had it but I guess not. Now, trying to find it has become impossible.

I'm hoping there's some bootleg savvy people around here who may have hopefully grabbed that font and can share it with me. I would really appreciate it. Please let me know via PM.

Thanks a lot in advance.

EDIT: The site might actually have been Italian. I came across a site that acknowledged "www.longroad.it for providing the fonts for the artwork." but the site is now dead. So maybe if it was an Italian site, there might be people on here who can help if they know someone who's into boot art.
