    yea jamies look alot better anyway, but mine do have small bumpers on them, or atleast they should look like they do

    hey jamie, any chance you could post up up blank templates for people to customize?

    Here you go... I edited a couple to have no license plate or anything or front spoiler.

    They are saved as .gif's to make the file size smaller (12 kb vs. 500 kb), so you will have to make them open in paint, they will probably open with your browser or whatever by default. Shrink them to either 1 or 1.5 inches (1.5 if you want it animated). Let me know if you want it animated.

    Very nice! I've not really messed around with photo shop enough to figure out the shading yet.

    Here is what I came up with for Ray:

    Back at ya, Ray. On all accounts! LOL :D

    Gene and soulpower, you guys provide me with pics similar to the ones we have used so far and I'll see what I can do. They preferably need to be looking straight on at the front of the car, with the camera at least level with the top of the windshield (ray's was a little bit on the low side, I had to kind of guess at a couple of the body lines). I could do front or rear.
