Well, actually this is my second or third go at it, but you get the drift Anyways, I always put up a big fight saying that I can't learn b�ziers, they're too hard, etc. However, last night I opened up PSP and within half an hour I knew how to use them. So, I traced the top view of my newest ship, the Vihvelin Class Scout. It's near-future ship, I guess. Not quite 2377, but not so far ahead as Adam's designs in the 2400's. Enjoy! ![](http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif) ------------------ "Huh. An intelligent guard. I never would have guessed." -Preed, Titan A.E.

*sigh* I don't know why I bother anymore. I get comments when I show my stuff to people I talk to on AIM and ICQ, but when I post something here...Maybe I should just forget about posting my work altogether. No one seems to appreciate it anymore. ------------------ "Huh. An intelligent guard. I never would have guessed." -Preed, Titan A.E.

I have a comment. You use Paint Shop Pro? what version? How in the WORLD do you get it to curve text without the lines?------------------ "Do you know how much YOU'RE worth??.....2.5 million Woolongs. THAT'S your bounty. I SAID you were small fry..." --Spike Spiegel

I'm using the PSP7 beta. And there is no curved text on those schematics at all... ![](http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif) However, according to Tim, if you make the curve the same colour as the background, it still works. ------------------ "Huh.

Okay ![](http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif) My friend Jason complained that the underside was too flat. So, he worked his bastardizing magic and produced this: ------------------ "Huh. An intelligent guard. I never would have guessed." -Preed, Titan A.E.

Shik: I take it from your question that you already know how to get the text to curve w/ the line? Then, like Fabrux said, you just make the line white, or whatever color the background happens to be.------------------ "I just measured him. He's about 21"." -Chris Martin, 14-Jul-2000

I like the second version better. Anyway, congratulations that you managed to tame the B�ziers!------------------ "Species 5618, human.

I'd have said something, but I've been gone for four days.What, nobody noticed? So anyway, I will now say something. "Something." As in: "That ship is really something." I dunno, I kind of like the idea of a flat-bottomed ship... but if it were so, it should be so for a reason, in the same way that (but not necessarily for the same REASON) that) a remora fish has a flat bottom for a reason. ------------------ "Nobody knows this, but I'm scared all the time... of what I might do, if I ever let go." -- Michael Garibaldi
