I'm stuck on what color to paint my truck and I'm not the best on the computer. Just so I can slap a color on and try 2 different colors (all red and all dark green) would I use photoshop? or is it not that easy? Thanks-

its not that easy.. red is a really hard color to produce .. green is easy tho.. lasso the body.. deselect windows and headlights all the stuff u dont want painted.... and hold ctrl+b i think it is.. the color picker appears.. adjust the colors till u get a green u like.. try it more than once so it builds color... and for red.. deselect the whole thing.. and lasso where u want red.. and hit ctrl+shift+u and then do the color picker again and turn it to red a few times.. should give u a general idea

^^^thanks.

I must be using the wrong program or I'm just that stupid that I can't figure it out. Is there anyone on here that can do that type of thing or that I can pay to do it. I leave for the army the 25th, so I want to have a color picked out to give to the painter before I ship out.

yes there is plenty of ppl around here that can do it like www.kuttingedgegraphix.com or www.graphicdisorder.com or www.designsbyfresh.com ... there are some ppl around here that might do it for free but there isnt much around anymore but those three do awsome jobs

I don't know what you are talking about, red is just as easy as any other color to get...there are tons of ways to get red if that is what you want just be careful when you change the color a whole lot not over saturate your image and make sure you keep the shine. -rj

How about your co.-the eyekandydesigns? I found someone's rendering on here: Project SIKty5. I want something exactly like that except I want the entire truck a different color. I don't want anything crazy, but I don't care about paying for it. Thanks.
