RE: mustang color sheme
Just give me a link to where you found it. I'm not sure if it's getting corrupted through email, these adobe files can be problematic in that way.

I need a link to the actual file. I don't feel like spending half an hour looking for it on that site. Just send me a link to the file you sent me.

RE: mustang color sheme
Sorry bro it doesn't work that way. Unless you have a source file for the graphics that is either vector via photoshop or a sizable raster I can't make a graphic from it. From that picture the best I could get is probably a 1/4th inch graphic. You should try to get in contact with the guy that made the graphic and see if he'll share it with you.

RE: mustang color sheme
you know what? Just measure the place between the two wheels of your supra and then print it out like you print out the other things.

RE: mustang color sheme
Hmm ok think of it this way. most everything you look at when printed is in the 150 - 600 dpi range. Dpi ranges are used for a variety of print viewing distances. Say if you're 5 feet away you can't see the dots on a 150dpi print. When you look at a nice magazine and you're like wow look at these pictures they're so clear most likely you're looking at an image which was printed using a higher dpi setting.
When you look at a newspaper you notice right away that the picture is composed of dots, or some kind of pattern. In print they're called dots on your monitor they're called pixels. Now paper is far more capable of carrying dots/pixels than your monitor is. Your monitor will do up to about 200 dots per square inch. This is why a lot of things look a little distorted or blurry on your computer display vs. paper.
Now a basic rule of thumb for image resolution on your monitor to print is that the image should look about 3-6 times as big on your monitor veiwing it at 100% or 1:1, as it will when you print it. There are big differences between two types of files, Raster files and Vector files. Vectors are just what they say based on direction. So you can take a Vector and make it as big or small as you want.
Vectors are used in stuff like fonts, and line art which you'd find in a comic. Rasters are images you'd take from your digital camera. Because there are so many features which change at resolution in a raster image you can only scale the picture down in size without loss in percieved quality. If you try to size the image up you're going to reduce the percieved quality of the image.
Let me show you an example of a print sized picture. This is how big you'd need the image to be, in order to be of sufficient size to print a 8 inch by 4 inch graphic. Click on the link (you will have to scroll sideways to see the whole picture)

RE: mustang color sheme
.. I really apreciate everything you want to learn me, but I'm not really a computer guy and I can't install any programs on the comp. cuz it's my dad's... So couldn't you do the things necessary? I know that you have more things to do , but couldn't you do it for me in your spare time?[sm=angel_smile.gif]

This is what he wanted.... http://www.freewebs.com/022678700/faf02.jpg .
That 3 inch graphic is gonna look like crap when it's stretched out to 9-10 inch's. Find him a bigger graphic.
