Quick explanation: I was inspired by the 5200 and Vectrex end labels posted by glazball on AtariAge, and since I just received my 32X and my first game, I realized I had a need for an end label. (I don't believe in putting cartridge games in cases, blasphemy!)

I know there are a few packs of end labels for sale online, but I really prefer to print my own, because that enables me to change the labels I don't like, or add new labels for missing games (even having all release games, there may be unreleased games, prototypes, homebrews, etc.). And in fact I did add a few Vectrex end labels to glazball's template and you can find those on that thread.

But this thread is about the 32X. I threw some random games I thought I might want in the future on here in addition to my first game, Knuckles Chaotix. I figured I might as well fill at least a few labels when I print the sheet, rather than waste all but one spot. (In hindsight I could have made some doubles in case I made a mistake sticking the label on, but it's water under the bridge and the sticker went on fine.) I encourage the community to pick up where I left off. I used a lot of TCP assets in making these and figure I should share. (Cartridge end labels don't have their own forum or TCP section yet, but it seems like they should!)

You can print on this label paper: http://www.onlinelabels.com/OL1543.htm
I suggest using glossy laser labels and a color laser printer with the print properties setting for paper type set to labels. This has worked extremely well for me.

I am doing the same thing for N64 end labels, using the OL9650 labels I purchased for Vectrex labels. If that's something you guys would be interested in let me know and I will post what I've done there too. The OL9650's are a bit too fat for the N64 though, so I have to trim them after printing.

You've got more pics? This looks great. I'd like to the texture of the sticker.
