[krossfyter]

Hey krossfyter,

Just a professional remark.

i would recommend that next time you make the luminance of the sign and the rest of the picture equal, or similar. In photoshop, take your image, flatten it and convert it to LAB. This colorspace will allow you to equalize the brightness of the sign and the background. Then convert it back to RGB. Or just on the layer of the sign adjust your color curve. The sign stuck out like a sore thumb.

good luck.

Nice try, go to the photoshop training section, and learn!

[krossfyter]

im just messing around guys... im not trying to show my photoshop skills or win an award or something. its a comedy concept.

[job]

[Durandal7]

well im going to try that. i did do this on the fly just for the fun of it man.... not trying to win a contest or something. my point wasnt trying to convince anyone that this is real because obviously its not a good job of it... i was just making a joke. but hell i think you got me thinking of trying to make this look as real as possible now just for kicks and to see if i can do it. so im going to try your suggestion. thanks.

heh yeah. Some one is desperate for the 30 minutes or less gaurantee with this one!!:D

[job]

i would not mind working for that papa johns branch.

i'd just drive off and never come back... :D

[krossfyter]

you aint lying man. id do the same thing.

so far ive seen only one viper where i live. it was parked outside of the mall the first time i saw it and immediatley turned around and parked right beside it got out and marvled and drooled. man just the design of the hood of the car echos the immense muscle under that hood. what a beauty man.

but anyways... after a while i was thinking and i thought about how funny it would be if i saw a viper or an bad a sports car for that matter with a pizza delievery sign on top of it.

[Wes]

Sorry to hijack the thread, but give me one of these! http://www.tvr.co.uk/graphics/tuscan_s/new/6.jpg

Viper just doesn't have it.

I'm NOT trying to start US V. UK thread, we all know who would win.

Just kidding, remember dribble is not good for your keyboard.

[krossfyter]

oh i see why you were doggin my post and didnt laugh you were offended by the viper... i guess.

but yeah man thats a bad rare car man. show a side pic if you can.

i prefer the design of the viper over that tvr by the way ...better yet the design of the new toyota supra... which are already in production.


just a matter of preference thats all nothing to be offensive about.

[Wes]

krossfyter, I wasn't trying to be offensive, and by the way the viper does scare me :( . I was waiting for some newbie to say, "WOW, where do you live? I want to see the viper."

Heres the side pic you wanted.

http://www.tvr.co.uk/graphics/tuscan_s/new/2.jpg

[Wes]

and finally... me and the tvr...

[krossfyter]

hey thanks. cool then.



this is intresting. that side pic of that tvr has the same side scoop design as the vipers. who did this design first?

me thinks dodge might have copied but i dont know. i know the first viper concept was in 1989.

[Wes]

There are quite a few cars that have the airintake in that location. I can't think of one at the moment. As for the style I'm not sure which one came first, a few of tvrs car have an air-intake similar to that.

[krossfyter]

yeah i know... im just talking about that particular design for that side scoop/air intake... not the concept.


i just noticed it when you put that pic up. someones copying someone man. but hell everyone in the auto industry copies each other... so thats nothing new. i just thought the viper was orginal in that design aspect.

[bousozoku]

We only had a 1984 Ford Escort with automatic transmission at the Domino's Pizza where I worked. :( I would rather have walked the pizza than to have driven it.

How about a Lotus Elise instead of the TVR? The TVR is probably three inches taller than the Lotus, isn't it?

I'd even take a 1974 Lotus Europa...my fave.

[krossfyter]

the lotus elise. what a car man. very pleasing aesthetically in my opinion. looks far out thats fur sure.

[krossfyter]

hey folks.... looks like mr viper pizza guy has got some competition....


hell yeah!

:D

[Wes]

Murcielago, that's the way! Nice car I saw one a while ago, those things are so low and wide :D .
