my first gauges, how they look?

my first attempt at guages,thanks to grndprx for the base templates.....couldnt have done it without him.....the "pros" couldnt seem to help me i do have one question b4 i tackle the speedo..........is there a way in paint shop to change the font and color of one number and then have all of them change to that font and color on the emtire speedo? there is alot of numbers on it and id hate to have to change and move each one individually that would take forever........i know there is a way to change one color to another option in the program but getting the one your changing to match is kinda tuff........is there a way to maybe click on the color and have the pallete recognize it? lemme know and thanx again to those that helped.........now if they print out right
