OK guy's lets see the sigs that you tried on your own, after seeing Chads magical hand:

Chad's spiffy sigs really inspired me to try my hand at photoshop. I don't really take beauty shots of the Porsches and I have never used Pshop for more than cropping and reducing photo's, (as my handiwork shows), but I never imagined there is so much you can do. My Photoshop came free with my camera so if there were directions I never saw them. Anyway thanks Chad for making me kill 3 hours with grueling Pshop labor. JK

 

You can do a lot of things for Photoshop. One of the areas that Photoshop is really good at is photo processing (as the name implies.) The picture you attached had a strong cyan cast on it. It was hard to tell what color your car is from the picture. With a quick color balance adjustment and a little bit of curves adjustment in Photoshop I think this new picture looks more accurate.

I know the change is pretty subtle but you can see in the wheels and the windows that the cyan cast is gone. In the future you might want to check the white balance setting on your camera. Make sure it is not set for "cloudy" or "flourescent lighting" when shooting outdoor pictures on a sunny day.

 

Also inspried by Chad...

This took waaaay longer than I care to admit, using MS Paint and PowerPoint.

 

Mine was inspired by programmatore's.

 

Mine was motivated by Chad, but the inspiration was my own.

 

...

 

Mine was inspired by the T-Shirt I had made for DE events. On the front of the T it says "Hi, my name is UFO" in one of those badge formats and on the back it says "How's my driving? 1-800-HEEL-TOE."

 

Illustration via Illustrator. No photoshop involved.

 

I used the same lousy tools - MS Paint and PowerPoint.

 

nice looking...

 

THanks for the adjustment P. I got some crap for it when I first took pictures to show the new rims. Improper fstop taken at dusk with the Leica on point and shoot mode. Everything got a greenish hue.

 

I have three and started to change them depending on the season. I didn't do a Fall sig yet though. By the way, the snow, rain and lens flare are all photoshopped in.

 

very nice

 

Yeah, that is sweet.

 

I used photoshop several years ago. I forgot it all! This took me way too much time. Still some clean up work needed.
