I was just really enthused with the idea of the Chromadisk. Something that evaded my attention for like what, 38 years? And something I never thought of, the idea of using the floppy jacket for art. 5.25" floppies were just this utilitarian black plastic square to load Commodore 64 software from.
A water transfer decal is not like a peelable sticker, it's much thinner and not glossy, but it isn't meant to go on that kind of rougher surface like a floppy jacket. It'll probably make a weird stippling or whatever when it dries.
"Well, I was assuming you really wanted to try direct printing for some reason."
Well yes, that's what I thought of first, since that's what a Chromadisk is, and I have a big dumb color laser printer right here.
It's just a child-like enthusiasm I have, you know? It's an obscure bit of techno trivia and it looks freakin great too.
I'm just not likely to get so close to the openings with a decal. I would have to protect the disk surface if I use the printer.
Besides, I have to head out now to the thrift stores and see if I can find some white floppy disks....
