Hey guys. :lol:

I was wondering how I get the words/logo's of one side of th fuselage to be an exact copy of the other side, but still letting it properly interact with the windows, doors, plating, and other details. Here's what I have now. (And I claim no rights on the livery, I am editing it for my own use only.)

Its the Posky 767-300... I'm changing it from Condor colors to my FsPax airline, Fly Caribbean. :lol:
Here's the two sides in FS.

Notice the stars on the engines and tail.

If anyone knows a easy way to copy, and flip, it over to this....

Yeah, the textures were open in DXTBmp, but I use Paint.NET to edit them. :hrmm:

Thanks in advance! :hrmm:

in p.net, open an unedited bmp, flip the image horizontal, write the jibajaba, and flip it back.

Ehh... :hrmm: I don't eactly get what you mean... I typed "Fly Caribbean" up with the desired color, size, and font, on a blank BMP, but there's no way to only copy the words... Only the words AND area around it, which results in a gaint white blob on the side of the aircraft... :hrmm: Mind some pictures to exactly show me?

yeah, put the text onto a seperate layer, and then just select flip horizontal under the layer option.

Sorry. :P There was other support questions, soo... I thought it was ok. :hrmm: My mistake.

And WF08, this isn't a paint kit. :hrmm: This is a prepainted aircraft, I was only editing it. Oh, and here is my final produtct. :lol:

And I just realised that it says "Pond Jumper" twice on the right side.... Gonna go fix it. :lol:
And why does it say "Pond Jumper"? Because this will be used on my future St Maarten (my airline's hub :yes:) to Bermuda, a quick refuel there and exchange some of my passengers from St Maarten for new ones, before continueing either to Paris, Rome, or Vienna. :P (BTW, anyone know if Vienna is large or signifigant enough to handle Trans Atlantic passengers? If not then I might exchange it for Frankfurt or something....)[img]
