    Yea, it was just the software you used to crop it. It ruined the image I was mainly just trying to show y'all the difference between hi-res and low-res (well varying shades of middle of the road really).

    My sister is a master at all this. She is the one who cleaned the pics up for me. She is at a doctors appointment at the moment. I will ask her to take the middle out.. Be later tonight if she's up to it. She had a hip replacement recently..

    Let your sister rest because unless you have a better source image she probably won't end up with a better result than I did. I've got up to date professional software and years of experience using it professionally. I will be the first to admit I can't draw for crap, but I can crop, blend, and blur with the best of them. Let your sister recover, no need to hassle her.

    She has the origionals.. AND she is restless. She wanted to come over and swim when she heard I had set up the pool last Friday. But then she decided to wait till the staples and stitches were taken out. That is what she went to do today.. Believe me. If she says she cant she wont lol.. I will be over to help her back into the house later when she calls that she's home. We live 4 houses apart on the same side..

    NP then. See if you can get her to replace the BLOCK text with the Cursive script while your at it too! I think I really turned you guys off by half-assing the filigrees in my previous mock-ups. I've got the deluxe cap... and it bugs the hell out of my that everywhere else on my car Comet is a beautiful handwritten script, and then I've got COMET on my gascap...

    (My cap has a crack in it so it would be useless to photograph :( )

    How are you doing on the orders for the Maverick light shown in post 13?

    I'm still committed to a set regardless but is it possible to get a set done minus the car name - just the steer horns? :thumbs2:

    She messed with it today a little.. She seems to think it would take some time doing some deep cleaning and says she wouldn't know when good enough would be achieved.

    I have a set of these, but mine have the running Pony for my mustang in the light! It's the 35th anniversary pony with the red, white, and blue banner behind it! I didn't know that they had them in different options! Cool!

    Still waiting on the guy to get back to me on these, the problem is there is a setup fee that prevents me from getting too many different styles/variations on the designs, the more people who want them would be eliminating the setup fee if I can get enough, looking good so far, I will let ya'll know when they are ready (maverick ones) and make payment arrangements, waiting on comet artwork, I see it's being worked on, thanks Blugene.

    NP.. I am not sure of the process or the materials used for the display. I am thinking it may be a plastic with the image on it? I have done all I can do with my images except maybe clean them a little more..
