I saved the second label at the same resolution as the first version, but that took it over the forum's 500kb limit, so I had to go to the next resolution down, which was 150 (the original res is 300), in order to make it fit within the forum limits.

If you like I could email you with the original graphic?

Kind regards, The14thDr :D

Yes, please? My e-mail address is in my profile. As for your file going over the Forum's 500kB limit for file size, try saving the original file as a JPG rather than a PNG; PNGs tend to be larger files, and the 500k limit doesn't apply to JPGs (9 times out of 10). Just open the original in its original form, then do FILE>SAVE AS... (select the JPG format from the pull-down menu - most graphics apps have that option), and then make sure the file name has the ".JPG" extension - so it doesn't overwrite your original PNG file, and then click OK, or SAVE - whichever your app gives you.

That should give you the same "physical" size of the image, but reduce the file size so it's under the 500k limit. (And even if it isn't, because the new file is in JPG format, even if it's at 550k it should still post.) That way everyone will have access to it without you having to e-mail it to everyone... which could take days! :D Besides, the last image you posted (the first time image, I mean) was a JPG and it turned out just fine, so another JPG should be fine as well.

Okay, I re-saved the graphic as a JPEG image at full resolution, so all of the text should be full visible when you open the image in a new tab. I've also scaled the images that Dino posted above so that the levers were full size on my laptop and scaled the label accordingly, so both versions of the sticker should be the correct size for the original levers.

Beautiful, 14th! That last one looks identical to the first one you created (with the alternate wording, of course): same size and resolution. You did a bang up job on those labels! Well done!

For the chrome handled yellow bodied dual lever which acts as the demat lever, something I found on reddit, so the letters are in italian, the centre one means idling, which could mean that the lever is of a Engine Order Telegraph, or there abouts, currently searching through the Web now, nothing as of yet, any other information or search terms or etc would help
