Re: One of my fav pics of my GTA..
ooh yea, now I do like that! I think someone just played around with the contrast and brightness on a standard picture but they sure did a nice job.

BG should be as plain OR as graphically stunning as possible, never ......just a background
Shoot in a clear sky immediately after the sun has set. Never shoot in direct light.
90% of commercial car shots are within 10% of this formula

Voila - a template for cutting the mesh.
Never done this but reckon it would work. You could use a dremel with a cutting wheel to get a pretty accurate cut.

Re: One of my fav pics of my GTA..
Well, given its over-reading by quite alot at those speeds, I'd say it was about 165mph-ish. Standard top speed is about 155, so its about right.
What mods do you have Freeman to get that kind of output?

Re: One of my fav pics of my GTA..
Rumour has it you have to be very careful what you say on here  So lets just say I'm having a 1.6 TS engine fitted, eh?
