List,
    Ok, I have a sphere in the middle of my picture, but when I add text
to it the text is inside the sphere and I can't see it.  How do I raise
the text above the sphere?
                    Thanks,
                            Travis

  By translating it e.g. translate <0,2,0> will raise the text 2 units up
in the y direction.

Bet he meant to raise it above the surface of the sphere, in which case
translate '-z' not 'y'. And if curvature is needed, ie. to wrap around
the sphere, think your going to need to look up a certain 'include'
file; the name or place of such I cannot think of or find (on the
internet).
