How do you put Text on your builds to show up on a SURL?

I tried putting a sign that is facing up, but after the latest update it was totally ignored, however I see text on a lot of builds in the SURL and I would like to add mine, also how do you get a graphic displayed on yours?

Just mark me an old Noob for the questions.

it must be made up of prims or textures won't show at all, see mine in the sim named
pahringull, you may need to zoom in a bit on the map to see it....its made up of a bunch of prims, and if you put it too high it won't show up either.

must be below ~500m (things above that don't get snapshotted for the main map)

may take a few days to show, and may need to be made of prims pieces, instead of a single large textured prim.

Why would you want ot waste land like that anyway? Its like Crop circles. But yes, use prims. I believe ome of the corporate sims used a mountain to shape their name.

Omidyar is kind of like that, the sea bed is a giant SL logo.
