San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) November 14, 2007 -- SmileOnMyMac released DiscLabel 5.0, the latest version of its award-winning CD/DVD label design software for Mac OS X. This major upgrade features a new clip art library, as well as enhanced layer effects and additional templates.

The release comes in time for the holiday season. "If you like to use your Mac to make personalized CDs and DVDs as holiday gifts, DiscLabel can give the labels and packaging a special touch," said Philip Goward, co-founder of SmileOnMyMac.

The new clip art library offers more than 1300 items that are accessed via a special clip art browser. The clip art is tagged with keywords that can be searched using the built-in Spotlight module. The clip art files come from the Open Clip Art Library, an archive of more than 7000 user-contributed images that can be freely used. Users can download additional artwork from the Open Clip Art Library and access it via DiscLabel's clip art browser.
