Hope it helps.

I used Google images and thought results would point at the Koenigsegg site but no. images/smilies/huh.gif

how about using photoshop or something alike, take your favourite picture of the koenigsegg, and change the color? if you dont know how to use ps, its pretty simple. select the body of the car, without the windows, wheels etc, and play with the hue/saturation/brigtness etc, 5 min job.

use tha lasso tool. i personally use the polygonal lasso tool, dont worry that it makes lines, it will adjust itself to the body. you might wanna go a tiny bit wider then the body, cos after that you can erase the bits that are wide rather then have a too tight selection and have still some of the old paint.
So do the following:
1, take a lasso tool
2, select the car body (make it a bit wider)
3, if your selection is messed up, you can add to it by hitting SHIFT + Lasso tool or take away from it by ALT + lasso tool
4, make a new layer by right clicking on your selection and hitting Layer Via copy
5, play with hue/saturation/brightness etc till you get your desired color
6, take the Erase tool (E) and erase parts of the paint from those points where its too wide

sounds a lot, but its 5min max

What I really mean is not about using Photoshop versus any other image software.

Seeing how you still refuse to use Google yourself no matter how many times you have been showed/explained/told how simple it is to use and would still rather ask anyone here for absolutely everything, I will not bring this warez talk up again as I see it as being pointless. images/smilies/thumbdown.gif

Jason, I'd rather be a buddy here but I feel you wont get the clue without being so direct.
This. is. bothering me. and obviously at least one other member of the forum to some extent.

^ Let it go Roman. At this point it should be obvius to everyone that he won't change his behaviour. So why waste your time trying to convince him. Do as I do. Ignore Jasons "Can anyone plz.." threads if he's asking for things he could google by himself.

However I could've put this in a PM but decided not to just to let it be known I do not agree with his behavior.

If anything else happens later, it'll be between him and someone else (other members, mods, Viper or Ren. ).

I've said what I thought I had to, I'm done with this. images/smilies/smile.gif

Unfortunately this is about the best of the ~25 shots I took images/smilies/sad.gif The lighting was terrible and they kept the back open all day images/smilies/thumbdown.gif

Off topic: Note the TG video on the screen images/smilies/tongue.gif

Yeah, but it's hurting the forum posts quality and it's getting on my nerves too... so he'll have to change.
