Idea #19204: Add CD labels

Written by kevinchen22 the 13 Apr 09 at 23:16. Related project: Live CD installer. Status: New
Rationale
When I downloaded and burned a Ubuntu iso, I wanted a nice-looking CD label to go with it. I searched ubuntu.com and the Internet for labels, but none of them were official.

Solution #1: Make the official labels available for download
Written by kevinchen22 the 13 Apr 09 at 23:16.
After you click "Begin Download" at http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download, the page it takes you to should display a link to the labels, which should be in both png and photoshop formats.

So users can tell the difference between Shipit CDs and user-burned CDs.

Solution #3: Multiple formats
Written by andruk the 15 Apr 09 at 04:15.
Release the images in multiple formats, like XCF, PSD, PNG, and SVG (if possible). That way people can use whatever they want to use to edit or open/print the logos.

#1: I think it should be in .XCF, GIMP's format.

PSD???? Why are people suggesting PSD on an Ubuntu brainstorm site????

The formats should be (1) PNG and (2) SVG

Why would you need any others?
