I know I'm jumping into this thread a little late but I've run into the exact same problem as you are now James. The way I did it was tedious but it brought the results. What I do is I make the face labels of the stereos one big GIF file that I make in animator pro. I start with a blank GIF and slowly and progressively add each label at a time — test rendering and re-positioning as I go along. I can get pretty accurate with this method and it's not too time-consuming especially if you test-render using flat shading mode and only a small section of the geometry at a time. It is _very_ helpful to have two computers to work on this (one with ani pro and the other with 3D Studio). If you wish, you can take a look at the stereo that I made a few months ago called STEREO.GIF .. it's got all that you're talking about I think. — Steve
