Instructions for music and artwork for your custom record.

 

Create your perfect vinyl by selecting your playlist’s runtime from our simple drop-down menu, and pay only for the duration you need. Personalize further with options for custom-printed labels and outer covers, or just choose a plain cover and label, featuring just your handpicked tracks cut to a unique vinyl record.

 After purchase you can send music and if the cover and label option is bought, the designs for the cover and record centre labels via email.

If the file sizes are too large for email attachments, I recommend sending to my email address using a free file transfer service, examples including transfernow.net, imagenetz  or www.filemail.com

I can't use Apple Music and playlists due to digital rights management - in other words, they are copyright protected and I can't even play them (although you own them!)


If your desired tracks are on youtube, Spotify, Soundcloud, etc, then please send me song/playlist links via email or message facility.


La̳b̳e̳l̳s̳:

As stated in the listing, all artwork/designs must be submitted in a finished state, ready for printing if printed labels have been purchased.
I am now 𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹 𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗮 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗲𝗹 𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫.

 
The  label templates show the available space for the circular label designs.  You get two labels, one for each side.  
If you can't use the label template, I will do the template work for you if you send your label designs to me.  I can't use Microsoft Word, Publisher or similar systems - please send your labels in .png or .jpg formats.  Templates can be downloaded from the below link, but are sent after a purchase including printed cover and labels regardless:

For your custom outer cover/sleeve, I will need your designs for the front sleeve and rear sleeve if this option has been purchased.

These need to be as square as possible to suit the sleeve shape.  .JPG or .PNG files are the files most commonly used.
Please check listing photos or 'cover info' attachment for more information.


Please don't send Microsoft Publisher, Word or similar files - please export them in .PNG and send these for printing.


I can help trim your chosen designs/images to fit the sleeve dimensions if required.


As stated in the listing, I am now 𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐨𝐫 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐚 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 for you.
All artwork/designs must be submitted finished, ready for printing.


Record spine:

An option to have a printed cover spine is available.  Please use the "spine template" attachment and send your design separately with your
2 cover designs and 2 labels.   I have to mention this again (sorry!) but I don't do design work, 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬!

If no spine design is needed this area will be printed blank.


Cover and label images and information checklist:


1)  Image for front cover.
2)  Image for rear cover.
3)  Image for record label side one
4)  Image for record label side two 
5) Optional cover spine design


Please double check your artwork for spelling mistakes before submission and that it is what you are happy with.. I can't change the sleeve after it has been printed.

 

 

I'll try my best to answer any queries via the contact form or email.

 

Regards,
Matt
