Drawing text on a sphere

Questions & Answers
1

Folks,

I am looking to draw text on the surface of a sphere. Just to be clear, I want the text to be part of the sphere, not guiText.

I am theorizing that I may have to draw on a texture and then wrap it around the sphere, but I am hoping there is a better way, or, at least, someone might have some hints/code to share to help me on my way!

Does this help?
