Wondering if someone could photoshop me a picture of my car - I'm total noob at it

The_Sixer · May 12th, 2009, 5:15 AM

I've tried and tried to do it, but I just don't have the artistic mind images/smilies/sad.gif

. I would be very grateful if someone could photoshop my car. I was looking to use, this image of my car:

http://i441.photobucket.com/albums/qq140/The_Sixer/DSC01539.jpg

and remove the horrible early spring back ground, and replace it with a black background, with a slight grey/whitish shadow. and then put this 300M symbol on the top right:

and put the chrysler letters across the top left, lacking the symbol:

If someone could do that I would be very happy. Cheers images/smilies/wink.gif

Now I do believe GTO copied the 300M's emblem images/smilies/blink.gif

Chrysler 300M came out before the new generation GTO's.

How is this? Any changes/improvements you want made?

And here is the smooth version if you like the current product:

Wow, that is superb. Thank you very much. Gonna look great on my desktop.

Wasn't expecting someone to make something this good lol. images/smilies/mellow.gif

Yeah sure, no problem. In the future, I'd recommend trying to get a picture of your car with as little reflection as possible. I desaturated the dead grass reflection on the side of your car, but it would look much better without any at all.

you know, I didn't notice that at first, but it's surprising how much difference it makes. images/smilies/smile.gif

Great work anyways, looks very slick.

Note: Not saying this one is any better, but there are two concepts in this one I like...but I excecuted them poorly. :-p

a) The car looks like it's floating in the first 'shop...I would have liked the car to cast a shadow, rather than...illuminating the ground under it like it's some sort of angel car.

b) I think the lettering should be slightly colored to the car. What do you think?

Well first might I remind that I was creating the picture almost exactly to his specifications, but if Sixer does like this one better, that is fine.

Anyway, here is my take. Mainly, I don't like the gradient background. It distracts from the focus of the image, the car. It may be better if the gradient weren't so extreme (going from black to dark grey more subtly may have been better). Also, the 300M logo is bigger than I'd prefer. As for the font colour, I can't make up my mind. It does do well on a white background, but I'm not sure how that red would look on a darker background next to the monochrome logo.

It's good to throw ideas around, so great anyway!

Yes, I realize that, hence the use of the old GTO logo next to it. It was to demonstrate that even logos all look he same nowadays.
