This reminds me of a little project that I started a while ago.  I buy a
lot of CD singles which often come in weird cases which are difficult to
store, and I wanted to put them into regular CD Jewel Boxes.  So I printed
up some "labels" to go inside the case so that they would be easy to 
identify from the side, and had the track listing on the back.  I wrote 
the code by hand for each individual CD, but I think it would be easy 
enough to turn it into a generic CD label program.  I was also thinking
of some way to include images on the label.  If there is enough demand
(i.e. If you are interested, send me mail), I would be willing to finish
things off.  If you really want to make get me going on the project, send
me some graphics for some of my CD-singles (Depeche Mode, Eraasure, New
Order, Heaven 17, Pet Shop Boys, OMD, Akira, Akina Nakamori, Time Zone).
I would be interested in GIFs, or anything the PBM package can handle. 
(Sunrasters, X-bitmaps, TIFFs, PCX, MacPaint, etc.) 

I'd also be interested in getting the cassette label program mentioned
above.
