I create my own labels. I don't put these on everything I bottle, just the occasional long-neck.
I create these in Adobe Illustrator. Normally I just print them on a colour laser and glue them on to the bottle, suits my needs anyway.

Ty for replys
Nice might try all these avenues. Might try Adobe first, might save a doller or two for more brews

Just a tip. When applying them use a pastry brush, drip it in a bowl of milk (YES milk!) and apply. They will dry and hold just like glue does but when you rinse it under water they come straight off making it easier

Hombrewtalk.com and it works. The only thing you have to note is paper labels don't last in an esky in ice but thats just common sense. For the fridge they work fine.

Assume
http://www.beerlabelizer.com/ is what chadjaja was talking about. Looks pretty cool and easy to use. I created the label below in about 30 seconds.
