Designing graphics

Hello all

Is there a easy to use program out there where you can take a picture of your car or shape of the car and design graphics on it to see what it would look like before having them made?

Thanks

hiya mate,

don't think there are any "easy" programs out there which'll do this for you, but photoshop will do a pretty slick job of it if you take some "straight on" shots of the body panels i.e. not at a 45 degree angle to the car... I'm just waiting till I've got an hour or two spare, to do some mockups of various colour/design schemes....

Did these last week (yep, taken at 45 degree's... so getting logo's to sit accurately with perspective/curves is very difficult)










been thinking more and more about the martini design scheme from various fords could be complicated but will give it a bash asap

Photoshop is an expensive piece of software.

I've heard (read) about people using a program called GIMP to do the same job, and from what I understand, I think it is free to download.

I use photoshop, but I use it for my work.
