Custom disk labels

Hello all!

I have seen some great remakes/custom disk labels but haven't the skills needed to know where to start with these. Some people have done wonders with even re-creating the originals.

I have some original disks that either have bad sectors or disks damaged from storage. I am left with 2 options:

1) Transplant the original internals to a donor disk or use a donor disk internals to replace the original (and write a fresh image to make it as the original).

2) Keep the originals as they are and create 'new' originals with the use of being able to write IPF / or just dump and write my own original to a new DSDD and then put a fresh label on.

Not sure if there are any such labels that people can point me towards or share?

Thank you,
Lesta_SMSC

I guess HOL and the Diskscan tab is a good place to start... but you'd need to do some manual editing / cleaning up.

And that is the sticking point - I'm not so proficient with tools such as Photoshop so hoping someone with the know-how could whiz this up in less time than it takes me to find out what the icon even does lol.

It's something I might be able to have a crack at also, but as D said which ones. I'm not going to steadily work my way through HOL particularly if it's Z-out you want
