The more repainters (of Prototype equipment) that get involved, the faster we'll see all those neat locos for MSTS-2, and painted correctly (IMHO) to boot! Cheers! Marc - 3DTrains http://www.3dtrains.comPro Series SuperPacks

I beleive the process will work in Adobe Illustrator, but not Photoshop, as it doesn't have a vector-editing function AFAIK. Those who know Photoshop better than I might confirm this.Cheers! Marc - 3DTrains http://www.3dtrains.comPro Series SuperPacks

Find the last option, "stroke" click the box, then click select the "Stroke" options, set the width, opacity, and color, and there ya go!The text layer Does NOT have to be rasterized either
