Thanks for the sample. The 'Humor Sans' text appeared, just as you described. Thanks to everyone for the responses! What I'll do is send her the XCF file I have now, so she can experiment with moving some parts of the image around AND I'll help her get the fonts used installed so she can make actual text changes. Peace...
