Default Here's my first label...

and I'm one for simplicity. In fact, if it were up to me I'd just slap a couple of X's on the label paper and write a date in sharpie, so that's what I was going for.

let me know what you guys think.

I just realized it's kind of small looking on the computer, but I sized it to fit well on the bottle, so I don't think it'll be a problem once I print them out.

Clean and simple. If it were me I'd do a little more. But I like the date stamp idea!

Nice, clean and simple.. outstanding.
I also like the way you utilized the side for the ease of adding a date to your label.. Only thing I'd do is have the text and image match the height of the dating system you've emplemented.

I actually changed it up, because I thought the letters on the right side were WAY too small to figure out what was going on, and I increased the font size all around. let me know what you guys think, again.

Put the letters on the right. The new design is too rigid. The assymetrical design is much more pleasing.

how about this?

Take out the months, put them with the year like in the first one, and just leave the days on the right in the new font size

yes, and I couldn't find a good stencil version of the images I wanted; mainly this one:




If I had a nice stenciled out black and white drawing of that, I would've used it for the label.
