Hey i just wanted to throw out the offer that if anybody wants me to try to make a photoshop sig pic i would gladly give it a shot. I am currently working with photoshop in my IT multimedia/graphics course and figured that while i am practicing using the program, i might as well make some sig pics with sweet lookin cars (aka fbodies). So if anybody has any requests, dont hold back!!

well if you get bored....
here's some pics of the formula

http://s37.photobucket.com/albums/e63/scherpj/Camaro/it would be great if you could incorporate both cars. I know photobucket kind of screws up the pics so if you'd rather work with the originals let me know which ones and I can send them to you.
thanks man, let's see what ya got

If you want to and want a real challenge you can grab pics of my 4 from my different albums and see if you can make a sig pic with all of them in it.

here ya go, Pyro. Hope you like it, sorry i'm not very good at photoshop yet haha...i'm working on it!

I also made one with the cars a little more faded so they dont stand out so much...i kinda like the style a bit better but its up to you to decide since everybody has different opinions.
Freshbake
Nov 8 2007, 07:02 AM
I'm just going to do them in order, so i'm working on JoeCool's next.
I look forward to the challenge, Sue. 4 cars will be tuff but i'll try my best!
SassySue09
Nov 8 2007, 07:14 AM
That's cool on doing them in order.
I figured you'd be up for the challenge otherwise you wouldn't own an F-Body since they are a challenge all to themselves.

And the best you can do for now is all I can ask. But who knows once you get better at it I might just have to challenge you more.

You're welcome. Sorry though I don't have a pic from the front of the 79 and I can't even get you one right now. I've got stuff taken off the front of it right now fixing some of the minor issues on that end of the car. If you can't do a pic with all of them in it that's cool, just do whatever you feel might be cool looking.
As for Joes' pic, don't redo all of it, just take the coffee icon out of it. I think it would great without that in there hiding the flames.
Freshbake
Nov 15 2007, 05:43 AM
No problem i'll mess around and figure something out, but i still plan on getting all 4 cars in there. And yeah i wasn't planning on redoing all of Joe's pic, just taking out the coffee thing. I already know what i'm going to put there that should be pretty nice.
SassySue09
Nov 15 2007, 05:51 AM
Cool on getting all 4 cars in there.
Ok I wasn't sure if you were gonna redo the whole thing or just "rearrange" stuff with it.

I've just been really busy managing school as well as work and everything...but i am going to get them done as soon as i can. It's starting to slow down now that i am working less on the weekends, so i am going to work on it this weekend. I promise

Yup I already gave him crap about it, all in good fun though.

It's cool, we all understand how life can get busy on you, so at least for me, just take your time. Work and school take priority over you having fun with the photoshop.

Glad you like it, happy to do it! The pics weren't that bad, I had no problem using them at all, but yeah they look like nice cars! What year was your T/A? I had a 305 91' Bird a while back and i loved that car (it was my first car that i've had since I was 15). I put so much work, time, and money into that car only for it to be t-boned while headed to the parking lot on my college campus 3 years ago. But yeah those two years (91-92) are pretty hard to find these days, i never see any around where i live. The Camaro looks good too, and red and black are my 2 favorite colors for cars :-) (all three of my Birds have been red :-D Anyways, keep up the good work on your baby, it looks great so far!

thanks man, i bought it two years ago with only 65,000 on her. im up to 80,000 and am tryring to beef up the appearance a little, rims, hood and a different wing on back since my rubber is seperating. thanks for taking a look, theres no hurry on that pic, just whenever you have a spare moment.
thanks again
i also have some pics in my album, if you want to see what the front looks like. and maybe something could be used for the pic....? just a thought

yeah man it was a 91 with a 350 V8 dropped in out of a 69 camaro . I sold it for 3700 and bout the camaro for 3900 which was a steal considering the fact its a v8 and rebuilt with plenty of great stuff . but also i let the TA go at a good deal . but i had to i was moving to california and needed a car and that wasnt finished with all the stuff plus i flew out there i didnt drive . but they come and go hopefully the camaro will stay along time . - SRCamaroguy89

ya my spring breaks coming up this week, im pretty pumped. im getting my brid out of storage for some spring 'cleaning'. going to put on a new fuel filter, change my differential oil, check my throttle positioning sensor( it was giving me trouble when i put it away), and try to get my gauges working again......and of course change the oil and all that good stuff.
i also set aside some time to celebrate st patricks day of course.....
should be a pretty full week.

oh by the way, hows that sig pic coming? haha

Hey guys sorry it took so long for me to respond on here haha. I went away for the break and ended up spending the week at my parents beach house for the week. Unfortunately, no photoshop down there haha. But i just got in last night and so i am going do rpetersen's tonight. Not sure what time tonight, may be late...but expect to see something in the morning! Nice Formie you've got btw!
rpetersen
Mar 25 2008, 04:29 AM
cool sounds good, i know what you mean i didnt have access to internet all break either.. but i did get my bird working again.
after getting my gauges working, i ended up needing a new computer because my service engine light wasnt flashing any thing at all, then put on a new fuel filter along with a cap and rotor, and bam two days were gone along with the money in my checking account.... got it lisenced and took it out for a ride, made me realize how long a time it had been since i drove the girl... and how bad i missed driving it!!!!!
thanks for the post and i cant wait to see what you come up with for the sig..
talk to you around the site

Let me know if there is anything you would like changed or any other cool ideas you would like me to work in, because i feel like the ones i am turning out are a bit "bland" haha. So i will take no offense to any criticism...just let me know if you want anything taken out or put in!!! I want these to look awesome, so any recommendations would greatly help in my perfection of this Haha!!
Here ya go rpetersen!

Mar 31 2008, 03:23 AM
Awesome Job!, love the faded rear view of the tail, great photoshop. and dont worry about it taking so long, like i said, it wasnt a hurry in the first place. couldnt have thought of anything better myself. i also like the fact you made the car itself the main focus of the pic. fantastic job
its frickin sweet as is, the only thing is the upper right, maybe a little info about the car, or i could try and get a pick of the tach and speedo some weekend and post it, or maybe maybe this pic can be used for that corner....
but otherwise wouldnt change a thing, great job man!! props on the p-shop skill.

Mar 31 2008, 03:37 AM
No problem man, i'll get right on it. I am going to change a few things, i got some better ideas looking at the pic a second time haha. But i'll give the first try with that picture you sent me. I actually really like that!

Mar 31 2008, 04:03 AM
awesome, sounds like you got it all under control. if you need any other pics along the way just let me know. cant wait to see what else you got planned for it. i was already impressed with the first round so it should just get better from there.
