Ooh, that's very very good. Thank you very much.

(if this was a cunning joke to get someone to post an URL that
makes them sound stupid, you've just won) :-)

Nah, I beat you by posting one myself first!

The colours are directly taken from colours on TfL's website so
they should match well. If that's good enough for your needs, then
by all means download and use it (and if you need a different size
or format, let me know), otherwise I look forward to seeing the
photo-montage version!

It's definitely very real and proper looking, but I think I'll still
give the photo-montage a go. After all, I've got a list of all these
suitable stations now and it'd be a shame not to see what it'll look
like if I do try it.

I don't want to criticise, oh okay, I do... I think the red circle is too
thin.

Can anyone find the two stations which contain the letters "******S"?

Easy, even without computer assistance, if you guess to look at stations
starting with K or W. Kew Gardens, Westbourne Park.

Yes, I agree. While I attempted to accurately match the colours and
font, I didn't have sufficient time to tweak the geometry of the
circle and bar. (The template was required for a meeting at short
notice - ok, not required, just looked nice on the presentation
handouts.) :-)

If I get a chance, I'll give it a tweak.

Definitely - I'd like to see how the photo montage comes out.

Some years ago I wanted the image of a roundel with my name in it, but
then again I'm fortunate in that my surname appears in full in one
station name, so in the end I just got a photo taken with me leaning
against the 'Road' part to obscure it. Very cheesy.

You could have your pic taken outside the prison too....

For that, the cheesiness factor depends, in part, on what Sam is short for.

Have you considered the significance of Stamford Brook & Wimbledon Park?

Whoever you are making the TOSSER sign for, couldn't you just do the
same as the above by standing in front of the ARSENAL sign instead? :-)
