    That's great! You need to create the floor that the car will sit on so that it looks like it's part of the picture and not put into the photo. Check out the ones I have done and it comes down to creating the flooring and making sure the angle of the car will fit into the angles of the photos. The picture also needs enough area in front of base image for the car to fit into the picture as if it were parked there. So, it makes images hard to use. In your photo there really isn't enough room for the mustang to look as if it's a real image.

    You have the car on the water and the rocks. It would be tilted down in the back based on the angle fo the ground. Look at my fierce rage photo and you will see how the car has been tilted and the shadow of the car added at the angle to match the red sun.

    The most recent poster for SublimeGT only has nine layers including a huge clone of an upgraded star pattern mixed with the blue... milky way running through the background. Some of that has been cloned to expand it in some areas. Much of the photo has had the blue saturated into the photo with the blacks extra dark to make the colors sort of stand out against the black background. The big planet on the right side was actually a partial from another image that was cut and pasted into the image. It started out as a more brown planet than blue. But brown isn't eye grasping in a photo.


    The main reason for the photos was just my need work on my skills with the software in a way that prevents me from wasting my time if a decent image comes along that I can share with someone who may enjoy it. Turns out the cars done in this fashion are unique and they even look better than the previous style posters I have done in the past for folks. They looks like posters, calendar images and background photos for windows.

    Here is your photo with the blacks enhanced and the blues just a bit deeper, plus I have added just a plain black area across the bottom of the screen so that it adds the sensation of the car sitting on a dark road with an awesome background. Now it looks more like a photo with the car really part of the photo rather than just added in. I hope you did not mind me screwing around with your photo Freak.

    What do you think? Did my explanation make since or was I all screwed up?

    Thanks. The car almost has a 3D look with the deep blacks and the bright light reflections.

    Dang I wish I could do that stuff those are Kick A$$...
    Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't, and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.' ----Harvey Mackay

    POSSE MOTTO:
    "life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body,
    but rather, to slide in broadside, thouroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming 'wow, what a ride!!' "

    You really need some better pictures on your site. They should be 800x600 pixel and entirely of your car. No background, just quality images of your car. They would look great on your website too.
