Clint Thompson Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 ... and I was about to say as I was clicking on this thread... I hope it's just as awesome as the 5200 label thread is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Thompson Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Well.... to sort of jump start the thread (not a very good first one and kinda ugly but I did this a while back in response to the SMB3 for the Atari 8bit homebrew by analmux? I believe) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitclassics Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I will see what I can come up with for a template tonight in Photoshop and post something up hopefully tonight if I get some time. Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atariboy2600 Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) Well here's first first take on the 7800 label thread starting with my three alltime dream Atari arcade to 7800 games ports the Star Wars Trilogy^_^ Edited April 20, 2005 by Atariboy2600 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitclassics Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) Added this also to the Q*Bert homebrew thread, but here is one I did. Corey Oh, which reminds me, does anybody know the exact font for the Atari name and the "Video Game Cartridge". I used HammerFat for the Atari name, but is technically to thick and found Hammerthin, but is to thin. Anybody know the regular font name? Also I used MS Sans Serif, but isn't exact, but the closest I found in my font stash so far. Edited April 20, 2005 by 8bitclassics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clint Thompson Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Someone want to make a Double Dragon label? (I don't like the white one *better yet - if someone does make a double dragon label is there someone out there that could print me the label for a small fee?* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although you have to select 'bold' for it to look right at the top. On the bottom the regular setting works. Also, I think if you use Hammerfat and reduce the spacing between the letters, it looks correct, no? Example included Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8bitclassics Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 I ended up switching to Arial in my next rev of the label. I look at key fonts, specifically on the cartridge, the G and R. G has a line extending all the way to the bottom and on Arial it doesn't, and on the R, it is rounded a bit on the \ area instead of just straight like the Arial font. But otherwise, very close. Your ATARI looks good, but won't know until printed. I will have to space the font more, but not sure how to do that in Photoshop. On your 7800, very clean, what did you use for that? I ended up getting a box scan and cleaning it up, which is good, but not great. Also, there shouldn't be a TM mark by 7800, carts I have looked at didn't have them.

(I don't like the white one *better yet - if someone does make a double dragon label is there someone out there that could print me the label for a small fee?* 841118[/snapback] Yup We sell blank labels for laser printing (and print them also) for a small fee. It fits the standard Atari cartridge though and not the Activision cartridge. If interested, PM me and I will see what I can come up with for a label design.

Clint Thompson Posted April 21, 2005 Share Posted April 21, 2005 Actually I guess the grey doesn't look *THAT* bad... but it does make it come off as budget enough already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corey 841127[/snapback] Thanks (I actually look at letters 'S', 'A' and 'M' - never even noticed the 'G' I actually found a similar font for the '7800' lettering: Futura XBlkCN BT I had to 'bold' it and make the spacing between the letters very small. I have included it here That's funny about the - I saw it on the 2600 red labels and just ass/u/med it was on the 7800 Bob tt0204m_.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
