Materials Needed for Proper Assembly:

> Computer
> Printer
> CD Burning Software
> Image Editing Software
> 1 Piece of Paper (8.5" x 11")
> 1 Printable Adhesive CD Label Sheet (Full Face)
> Optional: CD Label Software or Template
> Optional: CD Label Applicator Device
> Scissors OR Paper Cutter
> 1 Slim CD Jewel Case (Clear Front, Black Tray)


1. Open tracks in the burning software of your choice and burn them in the correct numbered order onto a blank CD-R. Set the disc aside when finished burning. If your burning software gives you the option to input the CD's title and artist name, input the following:

Artist Name: Kids Get Hit by Buses
CD Title: RE:K.G.H.B.

Also, if your burning software gives you the option to burn the disc with no pauses between tracks, select that option for best results.


2. Use the image editing software of your choice to print out "RE KGHB - Revised Insert.png" onto an 8.5" x 11" sheet of paper (letter size). Make sure the program you are using prints the file at its exact size (100%). Make sure the page is set to print on "Portrait" (vertically), so that the full image is printed along the length of the page.

Recommended image software for printing: Adobe Photoshop


3. You will know the image printed correctly if the measured print is approximately 4.749" x 9.582". When you have verified that the image printed correctly, use scissors or a paper cutter to carefully cut along the outside line.


4. Fold the cut-out print in half "hamburger style", so that the paper becomes a square shaped insert with the image facing outward on either side. Set the folded print aside.


5. Now open "RE KGHB - CD Label.png" in either your image editing software,  your CD label software, or other program using the desired CD label template. This step will be different for everyone, depending on what labels and what software/templates you are using. Orient the image so that it can correctly print on your sheet of adhesive CD labels. Use the gray circle around the image as a guide. When the image is properly aligned with the edges of your label, print it out onto your adhesive CD label sheet. 

Recommended CD label software: Meritline EZ Label Xpress (free)


6. You will know your CD label printed correctly if the image covers the full face of the label with the soft gray guideline just barely past the label's edges all the way around. Once you have verified that your label printed correctly, carefully peel it off the adhesive sheet. If you have one, use some kind of CD label applicator device to firmly press the label's adhesive side down onto the top of the CD-R you burned in Step 1. If you do not have a label applicator, carefully use your hand to align and press the label firmly into position onto the CD-R. Make sure the label does not hang over any edges, and that there are no wrinkles or bubbles. If properly made with a full face label, the image should cover the entire plastic face of the CD, leaving only the small hole in the middle open.


7. Place the labeled CD-R into the tray of your slim jewel case.


8. Take the folded artwork from Step 4 and insert it into the front of the jewel case underneath the plastic tabs that will hold it in place. Make sure the side with the robot faces outward through the clear front, and the side with the track list is on the inside. Close the jewel case firmly.


Congratulations! You now have a hard copy of RE:K.G.H.B.!
