Very cool! I would change one of the car shots so that the wheel is turned inward so you can see the rims.
My 2 cents!

Does the $70 include the poster itself? How big is it?

Seriously, any 1st year graphic design student can do that (not saying it doesn't look good, but it's not hard to do). If you're gonna spend $70 anyways, give the work to Austin. He's overqualified for the task, but I suspect he likes working with Vipers. :)

the poster is 20 x 30 inches. the website says you get a full color glossy print, so it sounds like they are doing it all. austin, is this something you can do? i just dont have the time or any software to do it. austin, if you can do it, i would certainly charge for it. but the $50 in labor is going to be hard to beat. yesterday i had this picture printed into a 20 x 30 and it cost me $20+.

i will give bobby sherman a call and and see what he has. :lmao:


LOL:D If he has a set of trashed McViper wheels implanted in forehead, you can assume I talked to him before you did. My "$1000 mint set of wheels with 10k left on the tires" (which were actually trashed wheels w/0 miles on the tires) ended up costing me $1330 to get to the condition he promised (so, I spent $2330 total including the $1k he stole from me). If its ever been a Viper that I'd like to read was slammed into a brickwall at 200mph, its his. This can be him as he flies through his windshield-- :brick:

i have a neat story to share about the "sunset" shot of my car above.

the other day i was out driving my car, and the sun was starting to set. alot of really neat colors started appearing in the sky, so i pulled over and started taking pictures of my car. i went home and downloaded all pictures into my computer, and found a couple pics that i thought really turned out great including that one.

anyway, i liked the "sunset" picture so much, that i decided to have it blown up. so, yesterday i took the file to one our largest local camera stores, and they told me that they could take my file and make it into a 20x30 poster. when i got there they began to tell me how nice the pic looked and how it was getting alot of attention there in the store.

well, i am happy to say that sometime today or tomorrow, my viper picture will be getting framed, and it will soon be hanging on one of their walls in the camera store! I AM SO FLIPPING JAZZED!!

now i have to go back and get a pic of my pic hanging on one of their walls in the camera store!! :rolaugh:

:dunno:

There was a thread about 6 months ago or so, that would let you make a wall size poster out of your car? If anyone remembers that link, I would like to do that some day. It was done in pcs., so you could put them all together and end up with 2' X 4' up to 5' X 8' or so???
