I have a heap of NES and Genesis label I have recently scanned (yes, I scanned the spine too), but havent seen any on this site, should I upload them? some of them are pretty rare too, and in excellent nick.

I think i'll .RAR them and post a link...

I think that's a no-brainer.  :)

Of course you should upload them.

Make sure you have the tops scanned in as well. That way we can put the two parts of the label together.

EDIT: just saw that you have the spines scanned in as well. That is great! Make sure none of your labels are blurry. We had to throw out a few of your covers because of some blurriness and cropping issues. Just make sure that they do not move on top of the scanner when scanning. Thanks!

No offense, but like N64 labels already here, I dont really see the point of uploading cartridge labels to the site. Even if you were to print them out, they would be on paper, so you would need to glue them down somehow, and I just think the whole process would look sloppy regardless of how great the scans turn out. Maybe if there was some sort of sticker-like paper you could do so, but I dont know of any such paper in existance. Do you?

Yeah, Cart Labels get damaged over time, especially ex-rental ones, I have printed and replaced a few, and they come-up great, not 100% obviously, but HEAPS better than half a OEM label!

I mainly use avery lee's wine etiquette labels.....

The main reasons are that

1) the etiquettes are allready sticky and when apllied very hard to remove

2) They are glossy

With those etiquettes and a nice and sharp label to print in high quality mode on my printer the new label looks retail.....

Oh wow! That is pretty cool and definitely not what I thinking of  :)

I will update the guide.

I think that uploading any kind of label is a great idea!  Especially since I get my games off eBay, and most of the time the labels are in lousy condition.  So please upload these labels!
