We all move forward. Sometimes we take big steps and sometimes we crawl. The
important thing is that we are moving ahead and that we are comfortable with
our own pace. ;-)

Now that would be a great option if i'm really ony interested in the
presentation of the disk. Wow, i learned so much from this post and am
impressed that so many were willing to take the time to answer it. No
more
sticky CD labels for me!!! this Neanderthal is moving forward.

It's one of those things that's becoming more widely known. Obviously the
label makers aren't saying squat but I've heard that some CDs now have
warnings about using labels. I have some disks with labels that are fine
but
the equipment I had was older and slower. I prefer not to pick pieces of
labels or disks out of my computer - or my car's CD player. I have enough
stuff to deal with without adding to it, ya know?
Instead of making a pretty label, why not make some really cool CD case
liners?

Thank you taking the time to tell me this. i didn't know that! I was
just
trying to create an attractive copy of an audio CD.

You really shouldn't use labels on CDs/DVDs. Labels can cause the
CD/DVD
to
be out of balance, and can damage the drive. If the label should warp,
the
disk could get stuck in the device. Air bubbles under the label could
cause
an unequal distribution of forces on the disc as it spins in the
drive,
which in turn could cause the disc to shatter while spinning at high
speeds
such as 52X for CDs and 16X for DVDs. Other issues have also been
attributed
to the use of paper labels on disks.

How do I insert round or curved text that will follow the curve of
the
inside
or outside circumference of the CD label without using Word Art?
