   Sounds good to me. I'll start playing around with it. Thanks for the
vote of confidence. Actually I'm not a god, but I sometimes I play one
on the net.

   When I visit Kansas City, the downstairs neighbor of a friend I will
be visiting is a t-shirt silk-screening shop. I helped set them up with
a computer to make quick graphics, so I'm sure that I could get some
advice. The best example of resolution possible on a t-shirt is the
Tori Amos tour one. It has all the lyrics in 6-point type and several
full color images. An amazing shirt.
