I noticed there's NES labels and N64 labels on the site, but no SNES labels (that I've seen, anyway). By any chance, would anybody happen to know what dimensions an SNES label would be?

I'd say just scan them in, clean them and crop them as close as possible to their original size.... That's it....

There is no fixed size they should be.... :)

Just like the NES labels, on the SNES labels include the top of the label as well.  :)

Thanks!

SNES labels don't have a top do they?  at least euro ones don't

The Euro and Jap SNES carts are also curved so getting a nice scan is a right pain. I tried to scan a few of mine but as the cart won't sit tight against the scanner the image came out blurred, distorted and generally crap.

how about a decent photo with a digital camera against a white background?

not tried myself, but if in focus, and high enough res, it might be good enough to work with.

Dunno if that could work.... You would have to use a tripod for sure.....

Well, I've found that these dimensions seem to work pretty well: 985 x 521

Also, while I'm at it, here's some dimensions that seem to work well for Genesis labels: 863 x 788

If you think about it, most SNES labels are just resized box art right? We could definitely make these if we put together the right template.

It's a bummer that they're photos though and not scans (I know, scanning them isn't really an option).  It does appear that he corrected the lens distortion though :)

You just need to scan in 3 parts, like this:
