Thanks Jim. :D

I might tweak it a tiny bit still. Not totally happy with the white 25. I would like to try and get " 25 years of XM" or something like that. We'll see. :)

If I may butt in, just a tad bit more inter-character spacing in the numbers... They seem rather compressed now.

Thanks very much Matthew, :D I have tweaked it a little only to the text by the car. I wasn't totally happy with a random 25 in the corner. We all know what the 25 means, but to anyone else, it is a random 25! So now it makes a little more sense.

Thats it now, I wont be doing any more changes until I get a sample to see what it looks like printed.

Russ, that really good! I like the tweak you made for the shot of the mug wrap, with the dates in the TLHC. I think Gabor's right: add a hair space between the year characters; they do look a bit crowded.
Great stuff.

PS Quite right about the lack of cup-holder - absolute oversight.

I will let you know about overseas postage costs.

You shouldn't be drinking coffee whilst driving! :twisted:
