I thought I would make a simple outline for photoshop requests, which would make it much easier for those of us who handle the requests, as well as the posters getting what they want quicker! Below are a few tips, which make it easier for the people that Photoshop. Please just take a few minutes to read throught this,

1. Please post several CLEAR pictures, and if possible; in high resolution. Its not impossible to make pictures taken with an iPhone etc to look good, but it is MUCH easier using pictures taken with a decent digital camera to start with. And also don't be scared to post too many pictures, the more pictures we have available to use, the higher the chances are of having a nicer looking finished product.

2. When requesting a color change, or a wheel swap etc etc. Please post pictures of what you want photoshopped on the truck, and also please include the name of the wheel if requesting a wheel swap. This makes it easier to find another picture if the one your provided doesn't work.

3. Be specific about what you want done in photoshop requests, it is MUCH easier doing exactly what you want done the first time instead of having to do 2 or 3 chops to get the desired picture. With that being said, don't be afraid to ask for a change in a photoshop. Just please don't be offended if it doesn't get done right away.

4. When posting a request for a color change, please try to take and post a picture in even lighting. (Eg. Don't post a picture of a truck half in the shade, and half in direct sun light). It makes it very difficult render a color change if the vehicle doesn't have even lighting.

5. For wheel swap requests, if possible try to post a picture of your truck in the same angle as the donor picture of the wheel you want 'chopped onto your truck. It makes it much easier for us to make look realistic, if we don't have to render or transform the donor wheel extensively.

6. Please be patient when waiting for a request, in time all requests will get answered and done. Photoshopping does take time, and can range from a simple 10 minute photoshop to a 3-4 hour process depending on the job at hand. So please just keep that in mind when waiting for a request.

7. FOR SIGNATURE REQUESTS: If you want certain pictures used, please tell us which pictures you would prefer to use in the sig. This will help us determine how to lay out your signature, and help make sure that your satisfied with your new signature!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOW TO INSERT YOUR SIGNATURE PICTURE INTO YOUR SIGNATURE:

1. After one of us has made you a signature, we will post it in your request thread. Start by right clicking on the picture, and click on the "Save As" option

2. Name the picture what ever you would like, just make sure that the file format is set to ".PNG".

3. UPLOAD YOUR PICTURE to the image hosting service of your choice (Photobucket, Flickr, etc)

4. After your signature picture had been uploaded, copy the "IMG" code for your signature picture.

You must be registered for see images attach


5. Now go your "User CP" on the forum and click on the "Edit Signature" option on the left hand side of your screen.

6. Now simply paste the "IMG" code into your signature text and the image will be embedded into your signature!

Hopefully this will help any of the members who have had trouble figuring out how to post there signatures! Thank you very much for taking the time to read through here, and if possible try to follow the above guidelines when possible!

Have a great day! :cheers:
