Very clean. Overall, a good start.
Font could probably use a bump in size. Try printing a sample and taping it onto a chip to see if it's ok. If you think it's easy enough to read then no problems.

I like it.. Keep the Main image black to keep it elegant and simple but match the Denom color to the edge spot of the chip...
Gives it a BLAM!  |

very nice and clean. However, i noticed a number of members making the same mistake when doing these mock-ups. 1st, remember the labels are 7/8". then u need to minus another 1/16" for the printable area. At the end u really only have 3/4" of design. Nothing wrong with that, but one should get the feel of this early to avoid being suprise when the chips arrive. |

Yup, good advice there viet. ASM's art department would tell you this after you submit the labels, but I like to know ahead of time so I can adjust things to look the way I want them to look. Quote: |
