wji, I would go with g-max. It's not that hard to build signs, But I will suggest that it is more harder to learn how to use gmax, then FSSE. Animations could be hard, that's if plan to do so. If you chose to go with g-max check all the toturials you can get a hold of. Or you can just buy FSSE, and easilly upgrade your'e scenery. G-max is meant for building what you want, then putting it in the flightsim. I would recomend from not knowing your level in g-max, is to just stick with FSSE. ;D
Gmax is a designing program, and FSSE is a scenery enhancer. Which has all the objects allready built.

Gmax definitely! ;)

If you want to place airport signs, creatsign available on avsim works well.

Bill, I know I've mentioned SceneGenX a few times, but I have to say it's got a great little sign creation section. Here are some I did for Brentwood. They're weathered because I've installed Bill Lyons's replacement sign, runway and taxiway textures.

Thanks for the tip, RB I visitedtheir site but can't see if it's payware or not.

I'm confused between Airport for Windows and SceneGenex (both listed)

Can you recommend the downloads to get what you suggest?
Thnx
Bill

P.S. I

Ah sorry Bill, I thought you just meant taxiway signs. Guess you're gonna have to go with the other suggestions.
