Creating CD labels in photoshop

[tim]

Is there an easy way? It's not seeming so easy to me right now.

Probably best to create your image in PS and import it into a dedicated program such as Neato's MediaFace II.

I'm already using photoshop. I've made the circles that represent the outside of the CD and the inside that can't be printed as well as I can, but it's kinda acquward. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips, maybe for making a circular rather than rectangular canvas, or something like that. My main question I posted in another thread, about how to paste another image into my CD template then resize is to fit properly.

I believe there are templates available for free on the net that have multiple layers etc to print CD labels. I'll see if I can find the link and post it here.
