CD Label (designed for LightScribe)

[undecim]

I made this last night. I love giving away Ubuntu CDs, but hate waiting for the new CDs to come in the mail, and people don't usually respond well to CD-Rs with Sharpie on them ("Is this a pirated version?")

Attached is the xcf for GIMP, and a picture of the LightScribe CD I burned with 4L (http://www.lacie.com/support/drivers/driver.htm?id=10094; the rpm can be converted to a deb with alien)

Obviously, there's nothing on the data side yet, but I will have several of these burned when Karmic is official (maybe I should put a koala on there above the version info? anyone know where I can find an image for that?)

Also, there is a color background layer in the xcf if you want to print this design to a sticker label.

I like it. Makes me wish I had a lightscribe drive!

Some hints tho... Is it a live cd or just an install disc?
New users would likely want to try the live cd first.

I would advice against a koala image, it doesn't really promote the product.

Edit: lts isn't until 10.4

Make "Ubuntu 9.10" small letters, normal font. Remove all other text. And it will look 2x better.

I kind of prefer having the information on there, though perhaps I should make it a bit smaller... I'm still toying with it some.

finished second draft. (see first post)

Oh well I actually thought about something like this (attached), but that appears to be too pretentious.

Perfect label!

One nit pick- 9.10 is NOT an LTS release. The .png label says (LTS)
