Time is really taking a toll on most of my 2600 labels. Most are dirty, torn, peeling, faded, scratched, bent, you name it. So I thought, why not make a template that you can redesign the label and put a fresh one on. It's pretty simple, all I did was measure the labels using a ruler and imputed that into my editing program. Then I scanned a cart, drew a rounded rectangle added the famous "Hammer Fat" font and fitted the label to it.

The Main Label:

Width: 2.8 IN (7.1 CM)
Height: 3.375 Inches (8.7 CM)
Resolution: 300dpi



Side Label:

Width: 2.75 Inches (7.0 CM)
Height 0.50 Inches (1.3 CM)
Resolution: 300dpi



It's a work in progress, but I really need to replace most of my Atari labels and since we have high res artwork here, it shouldn't be that hard at all.

Here's the template with both templates in .PNG format and the Hammer Fat font to install on your system:

Now all I need is some sticker paper to see how it looks :)
