Is anyone out there good with putting text on a pixel tree? I'm new to pixels.

I would go with one word at a time.  That does not work as well for a photo op because the entire announcement is not all on screen at any time, but for your purpose, it should be better.

I updated the video on my web site to a 16 x 50 tree. It doesn't look too bad. I cut the intensity of the tree to 75% and changed to a darker green. The regular green really overshadows the text.

That does look nice and fits the purpose .  Is there a way to make it bolder? Just by like 1 more row of pixels or does that make it look crowded?  I know the pixel count plays a factor. Definitely able to read it which was the key. The glistening effect is awesome. I can't wait til I learn this stuff. Time to start watching some more tutorials.

I think I just need to break it to the wife.. "Honey... We are gonna need a bigger tree next year" lol

I updated it again. To make the text bolder, also makes it bigger. This the smallest size I could get it with 2 pixels wide.
