Love the Goony-Marc. Tell us more about the software, if you would . I've seen it at the hobby store, and wondered if it had reasonable drawing functions.

Also, has anyone tried printing decals on the low-end HP Color LaserJet -- the 2605?

The software is more ad-ware. If you want it to do anything you have to purchase the options. What it does allow, is to let you inport, and then size pictures form other "Paint" programs, and overlay text on them, as well as it has some pre built graphics with it, then print them to a their standard size decal paper. The decals are a pain to get ready. I ruined the first set, because I sprayed the top "fix" to thick, and it attcked the ink. It does come with some white background decal paper, so I am trying to setup white letters with black background, to lay on the black paint. We will see how the next set does.

I finished up the decals, and they are more resiliant than expected. I had fold over on itself, and I was able to unfold it without tearing it. I did note one I did not get enough Fix agent on, and you could see the ink starting to come off in the water. Once again, put the fix on in multiple light coats!. In one of the pictures you can see the Decals I messed this up on!
