CD label or applicator
I just purchased NERO 6 & the create labels 5-6 forms came with it. When peeled all of the CD labels curl making it very difficult to place a label on my CD's.
My practice website helps to show what I am referring too http://www.arthurhewett.info
Anybody got other label suggestions, even the applicator for that matter?
Thanks,
Arthur

They make special "jigs" for installing labels on CD's. It looks like you have the proper jig, just getting used to using it. I bought a CD Stomper kit and it came with labels and the special jig so the label is installed centered. Once you get the label on the CD with the jig, you also have to press the entire label to make sure it's sealed properly. Some CD's that have raised printing on them do not allow proper adhering of the label, and one thing to check. It may just be the particular labels, too. Have you tried some other labels? Finally, if the top of the CD or the label is not completely clean (e.g. fingerprints, etc) on them that could contribute to improper adhering of the labels.
One caution with labels. If you are making audio CD's to play in a car in-dash CD player, most owner's manuals tell you to NOT use a paper lable on the CD, due to potential for the label to come lose or tear in the CD player (and if that happens it's $$ to get it fixed - if it can be fixed).
