Most of you know about SPRASTER, which is able to make pictures using text labels.
However, the colours on these pictures always turn up faded. This has been annoying for many players, and it's one of the main factors that discourage players from using SPRASTER.
Some users have suggested to edit the photographs to make the colours darker before porting them into the software.
However, I've (accidentally) found a much easier way to fix this problem.
Step 1
Follow the usual steps to turn your photo into a text label.
Step 2
Paint the label black (specifically black). Yes, I know it doesn't change the colours of the text label, but you'll see why I said this.
Step 3
Open the text label settings, and set "Outline Width" to 40. This varies based on what photo you're using, so you should judge for yourself.
Voila, you have now made your text label darker, and the colours are accurate!
Before
After
It's not perfect, but the colours look much closer now.

(I won't update the XML for this plane anymore, because the last time I did it I got a loading error message afterwards.)
Anyway, you're welcome.
In the future, if someone asks you why the text images are so faded, you can link this post in your reply.
@AlivePan lol
I mean, even though I use a lot of text labels, I still use fuselages for cheat lines, stripes and tail curves. It’s just that a lot of modern liveries (which I’m focusing on) don’t have all these.
Also I’m redesigning my airline’s livery; I haven’t told anyone else yet
I remember when you used to make absolute fire liveries using fuselage blocks. But now...
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes Yet could you help me make the cheatlines here

I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars
And they're all painted black
With flowers and my love
Both never to come back
I've seen people turn their heads
And quickly look away
Like a newborn baby
It just happens everyday
I look inside myself
And see my heart is black
I see my red door
I must have it painted black
Maybe then, I'll fade away
And not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up
When your whole world is black
No more will my green sea
Go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing
Happening to you
If I look hard enough
Into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me
Before the morning comes
I see a red door
And I want it painted black
No colors anymore
I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by
Dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head
Until my darkness goes
I wanna see it painted
Painted black
Black as night
Black as coal
I wanna see the sun
Blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted
Painted black, yeah
