With graphics, they might need to be created in-house. If supplied by the
customer, I would need serious assurance that they were not under someone
else's copyright. Lawyers can be worse than fleas.
Graphics on the discs could be done. Print them out (using appropriately
colored paper to avoid those nasty showing edges), trim them out and then
glue them on the disc. A coat of clear polyurethane and they should looked
quite nice.
But this is highly labor-intensive. Someone has to cut out all those
little graphics. And it has to be neat, so they can't be rushed. And wage
slaves are not cheap. The cost would depend on many factors. Have you seen
the price of printer cartridges lately?
It may push the price of a completed disc over a dollar. I'm aiming at
less than fifty cents for a disc.
In additional to letters, I had thought to make up some simple symbols,
self-designed, common or public domain. I know how to make rubber stamps,
but I would need to sell a good quantity of that particular symbol'd
piece to make the process cost-effective.
