Can pictures posted on this forum be 'Photoshopped'? I'd like to post a picture of one of my cars and have the whitewall tires blackened to see what the car would look like with blackwall tires. I don't have the software to do this. Can one of you do this for me on the forum?

Go to the HAMB board and search for "moose", he can do that for you easily.

I'm no whiz but I dabble with Photoshop.

In addition to posting send a high resolution file to the person that is doing the photoshop. The photos you post must be low resolution and it is best to work with a high resolution photo.

The picture is 3.04MB. Is this considered 'high resolution'?

You have a great looking 1937 Ford. The White Walls look great.

Jerseyboy photoshoped the fenders on a 40 coupe in a different color.

Here Ya' go. and you don't really need a high resolution pic. Original post is adequate.
Then I sorta' like mine lowered with wide whites.
And maybe even a color change?

51 Merc-Ct,
Awsome photoshop job.

JM 35 Sedan · 05-01-2016, 09:58 AM

51 Merc has always been the king of photoshopping here on Fordbarn. Who else here would even know how to make their headlights flash like those on his Merc?

Black with blackwalls rules the roost!!!

This one is about as good as it gets.........IMHO

petehoovie · 05-01-2016, 11:45 AM

Thank you 51 MERC-CT!!!

You even lowered it....

51 MERC-CT,

Your pictures came out beautiful. I haven't used Photoshop for a while. Have they developed a tool to change one color to another? The quality of you pictures is such that you apparently didn't use the "paint brush" tool. The only reason I suggested the high resolution is I wanted to be sure he ended up with a picture he could blow up and hang on the wall after someone spent the time to make the changes. Your work is definitely something that could be blown up and hung on the wall and I assume it would have not been additional work starting with a high resolution photo (please correct me if I am wrong) that he could have emailed to you directly.

Decisions....Decisions....

I'm leaning toward going with the blackwalls. It looks cleaner and more period correct. I won't 'slam' it though....

I can only wish the car were a 'slantback' though....

The black walls give this model a look of authenticity and elegance.

RalphM · 05-01-2016, 01:13 PM

Black walls definitely "fit" the period of the car.

Chisel · 05-01-2016, 01:28 PM

White walls !!!!

Black walls look plane Jane

There isn't anything wrong with using high res. pics but most of the ones posted within the limits of this forum are adequate.
There isn't anything "new" about the 15 year old version of Photoshop that I am using in my laptop.
No, paint brush is not used, it's all about creating layers and coloring the layers that you want to color.
