Other than the chickenscratch, using a navy plane for an Air Force wing and saying TAW too many times... it looks fine.

BTW... is/was there a 391st TAW?  I served along side the 391st TFS in the 366th TFW for a bit.  Can't say I've ever heard of the 391st being a wing.

Wow. However, before you move on to squares and triangles spend a little time perfecting your circles.

Dont try any of the complicated text stuff.

Maybe Urchin will chime in. Have you seen his wonderful art work?

to make the curved text here is a jerry rigged way with out photoshop:

use MS word and make "word art"

use the "shapes" to make it curved the way you need and "properties" to make the color. do this in a high (like 48pt) font.

take a screen shot of windows with "print screen"

paste that pic into paint then cut out the text. paste it into a new bmp and scale it down to the size you need.

for the:
T
A
W
part... insert "text" in ms paint (even for the non bold parts) or do the word art screenshot thing.

thats how i made this:

The idea and layout is good.

If you want someone to print the letters in there for you, just ask in this thread.  I'm sure someone has photoshop that could clean it up for you.    You can't help that without the proper tools.  

Good Job, though!
