Mebbe somebody Photoshopped it in. We can rule out 71cb750 because his skills are far too high for such pedestrian work.

I was going to do the stripes but I just cant hold my hand steady enough so I just used electrical tape on my screen. You should see it.

This is just the sort of thing that separates the good from the great.

I showed the pic to the dog, he said if I did the bike up like that he'd promise not to piss on the tires anymore.

Can somebody please explain why dogs do that? I spent a summer in a cottage, and the first thing every morning, my neighbor's giant- ol' dog (Spencer) would would amble the 50 yards to my place just to pee on the wheel of my Honda Accord. As a dog owner myself, I was perplexed and not upset.

Heres a quick one for ya, proteal.

Obviously the direction youshould be heading for aesthetics.

MLINDER -->
Sweet work ya did their, I must admit.
I dig the placement of the air horns best

On a serious note you think you could do a few "normal" ones in red/silver/blue/black/etc ?
Maybe include the headlight back as well (not sure if i wanna have that body color or just leave it black)..

Roach Carver · « **Reply #38 on:** January 03, 2007, 03:59:31 PM »

mlinder - that is fantastic. kind of a cafe / trucker style. you may have something there. all it needs is a big yosimite sam mudflap.

It starts to load and 15 minutes later its still stuck, I am not sure (maybe the pics are too big) let me see if i can get the PC hooked back up from moving it and we'll try on that

I would lean toward them being too big, I'll try to resize themand see what happens

I think, perhaps you dont think it will work

thinking that is, since you cant type anything else

Klark Kent · « **Reply #45 on:** January 04, 2007, 09:07:13 AM »

the limit has been lowered to 80k
most programs will let you resize an image both in inches and in quality.
if you tell me what programs you are using and how you are posting them to the site (i.e. attahed to a post or hosted elsewhere) i can help.

Bright neon colors use more pixels.

I know how to change the size and all that I just havent had time to do anything lately, (new wife house and bike and all) i usually use either Photoshop CS2 or NIkon View 6.0 to edit my pics

Klark Kent · « **Reply #49 on:** January 04, 2007, 10:11:10 PM »

export from the nikon program at full quality
open the files in photoshop
from there you can adjust image>size as well as format.
save as a small (80K) jpg and you should be good.
