I use a Mac, but I don't like automated templates.  I'd much rather do it myself in After Effects - I have more control that way.

You're right about the "rivers" - the text was auto-formatted in Photoshop.  For my next pass, I'm going to be re-typing the text completely for three reasons:

1. To change the color to match the GOUT Star Wars crawl (mainly so I don't have to recreate it)
2. To remove said "rivers"
3. To make the text block the right size - I had to stretch and resize it to match the SW GOUT's text block in After Effects after I'd made the Photoshop text file.

There's another problem with the opening logo - for some reason, as it recedes it "rainbows" a bit, for lack of a better description.  This will hopefully be fixed with the new logo I'm working on.
