[ClutchBurndout-:(]

gazal yours looks like a ticket to a dance party hehe

dont u see, SAU IS a dance party, we listen to music in the car, we do lame dances in front of our car (well i do...) and we check out other cars while trying to look our coolest.... and everyones invited!1!!!!!111@!...

this is the way to go guys, vector image will give much less headaches... stay away from imagery unless you have a 100mb+ version... unfortunately its a lot of hard work with the pen tool;)

This is why these competitions don't get great results, nobody (professionals) want to spend hours on something their not sure is going to be used when they could be doing the same thing and getting paid... and no offence to the other guys that have had a go but something this big has major technical considerations...

That said Rekin has put quite a few hours in his illustration and I think its on the money... throw some type on there and she's done IMHO

Agreed with you mate - sadly to properly vectorize a photo of a car and get it to look realistic, takes far longer to pull off than what most people can spare...

These 2 were done in at uni, - the Rx7 took an on and off period of 6 months (engine bay was a KILLER)... the lambo slightly less because it was simpler, but still 2 months plus... if we're to get a realistic looking car, we have to make do with what imagery we can find... thankfully CS3 photoshop has a new method of enlargement that has impressed me so far... Youd wanna start with at least a very large wallpaper sized image though... either that or a file sourced straight from the digital camera... the likes of which would be very hard to come by I think.

Thanks for the insight boys

Something i really wouldnt know, nor most of the committee about such things.

Last thing we want it a crapola banner once its blown up.

Would the quality 'really' be that bad?

Have people seen the current thing we use?

Basically, if the source image is decent enough to start with, it will blow up fine. It wont be super crystal clear, but enough to look good from viewing distance...

You really shouldn't be taking credit for a photo when all you did was post it up...Nikora took the photo.

[scotty014]

i never stated i took the photo all i said was i had it on my computer thats all.

[scotty014]

id also like to add that id never ever take credit for someone elses photo, because seriously what would i get out of it absolutley nothing. i just like to collect pics, i do take some photos hear and there but im no photographer, all i did was put up some pics that looked really good to give people some good ideas on what to have on the SAU banner.
