I want to print out labels for my catalogs that have my name, phone #, website, and e-mail address. What size label should I use? (And for future reference, when I order a stamp made, is the website address too long? www...../08amandak )
 
Whether your PWS address fits will be dependent on the stamp. Most have a maximum number of characters per line that you can check before you order.When I print labels for my catalogs, I use 2 sizes. 30-up (8660) for the front cover, and 10-up (don't know the number) for the back. They have the same info, but I use bigger type for the one on the back.

Thanks! I didn't think about the large size before, but that's a great idea!

Also, I know you've shared a little poem for old catalogs, what size label do you print that out on and where do you place it?
 
I do that one on the 10-up, or if I have them around, I use the 6-up shipping labels. I stick that one smack dab in the middle of the front cover so it's obvious. And I put my info under the poem, in case people don't think to look for it elsewhere (you'd be surprised how many people won't see another label that's 2 inches below the big one).
 
I used the 30-up ones for the back. I buy the Office Max brand and save a bundle with the PC Retail Connect card available behind CC.
 
I buy whatever is on clearance! I got some 1x4 labels once and they are an awesome size!

My website is my entire name and does not fit well on a stamp. I find I use labels more then stamps!
 
Here are the labels I use.

I couldn't upload the front of catty label. So here it is. Centered on label...30 to a page.

I just recently switched from the standard address label (30/pp) to a larger label (2" X 4") for the back. I can use a bigger font, have more room for creativity and it makes it easier to see. So far, I like it.
 
The ones i use when i forget to stamp...is.. 1"x 2 5/8.
Rember simple is best, most host have small att. span!
But I did order a stamp from an outside compay in RED!
they are always able to se my info.:D
