OK. Can someone tell me what would be the best image editing program to render cars? Is it Adobe Photoshop, or is there another one?. Price doesn't matter, just the best and easiest one to use.

Thanks,

Ross.

Adobe Photoshop. I have been using photoshop for 4 years. I love it. I find it an excellent program and its pretty easy to use if you are computer smart.

OK the new 8 CS version?

Its a £500 version 8 software against a £50 version 7?

I'm not an expert in this kind of stuff, but I have a few suggestions.

For now, Photoshop is great.

BUT! If you are interested in pursuing the transportational/industrial design field, there are better programs you can get for good money that do an amazing job. Check out Maya, Rhino or Alias, all top notch programs. I'm not too sure on the details of these, but I'd look into those too.

It's always good to have Photoshop. I never use it for colouring cars, but I still use it for cropping/editing everything, everyday. It is a great program to have, no matter what you're doing.

I reccomend PS 6 or PS 7. I have never used PS CS.

If you want to get a good answer, then go look in the graphic manipulation forum. Talk to the one under the name of Glacius, or put this thread in there. Glacius does some awesome work in there, it's freakin sweet. Also, I've talked with Kartoonz...he seems to prefer Corel over Photoshop. But certain ppl have diff opinions, depending on which program they use most and are better at.

i have used photoshop for about 4-5 months. i love it!!!! i don't know if it is what you want though.

i got a CD in Russia when i wen there and i bought one CD with all Adobe programs on one CD and a CD with Photoshop CS well it cost me around 10 dollars for everything! :evillol:

where do u live? maybe i can send it to u or smthin cos i don't use 7 and 6 anymore i use CS but there is not a big diffrence between 7 and CS

I want a program for creating similar things to http://www.cardesignnews.com/portfolios/cdn_pf_page.php?portfolioID=121&status=1&x=12&y=9&orderBy=rating&imageTotal=119&imageNum=1 this guy's designs.

AnsisK: I've tried Rhino 3D before (trial). The results that some people can get on them are amazing. The only thing is I don't really know how to use them and wouldn't I need training or something?

BuLLDoGG: I live in the UK, so I don't know if you'll be able to send it to me. If you could I would appreciate it. LOL, I think something like 90% of Russia's CD's are Copied. America wants to cut down on that as there's a lot of money being lost.

im russian but i live in Cyprus for three years by now so i don't think its a big problem to send a CD from Cyprus to England cos Cyprus now became EU its shud be no prbs at all! If u intrested reply

yes i would recommend photoshop, i been on it for about 3 years, its the industry standard for digital images. BUT, there are lots of things that photoshop does, that you will have NO need for if all u want to do is draw/render cars. and i dont know about any of the cheaper ones so i guess im not much help at all. i do endorse pirated software if it is for non commercial use though, find a copy someplace no worries

Hey Ross. I looked at that concept. I could do that in PS with some time. It just takes awhile for me to trace around the edges and fill in the colors. Its easy, just can take awhile. But there is a magic wand tool that helps a lot.

Also, about the price. You can get Photoshop Elements for only $99, its virtually the same thing as Photoshop 6 and 7.

BuLLDoGG: Sure, im interested! Tell me what details you need to know and I'll PM you.

okiez in order for me to send u the CD i need:

Ur address in UK:

house number, street name, P.O. Box, Ur name in full, ur credit card number (with pin code please :iceslolan )

I think thats basicly it. U can PM all this to me and i'll try to take care of it as sson as possible!

pin code? so I give you all the information you need to get money out of my account?

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: yea just pm it to me also :rofl: :rofl:

nah better just port it here.









NO!!!!!! DON'T DO IT HE WAS JUST KIDDIN'

Cmon u know us how can we possibly take ur money form ur account? :evillol: we are frnds here! we will just borrow some for short period of time!!! :evillol: *jkin*

Btw when i told u tha i can send u the CD i was serious cos i have many copies don't need so many hehe it will be a present from russian frnds heh

How do u like my sig? hehe man if u r ukranian that makes diffrence hehe tomorow i'll check out how much it cost to send a CD to Canada and if its not that much u'll get a copy of Photoshop CS as well!!!

Since this has turned into a nationality thread, what the hell, Im Antartican.

Do I get a copy of CS?

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAT! PIRATED RUSSIAN MERCHANDISE! I'm bustin' this place for illegal pirating!

I'm Latvian! I went to the market in Riga, and man, I loaded up on stuff like this! Ended up spending like 10$ total as well :D.

<simpsons>

Common! I know a quality Panatronic when I see one! And look! Sorny!

</simpsons>

Yeah I am half Ukranian. Unfortunatly I do not speak the language, but am supposed to learn shortly. That's kool that you'll check for me. I'll try a translator on your sig... Can't translate:( Little help! But still, I am half Ukrainian and half german! Ukraine Power!!

@Ross
yea man i promised u a copy it means u'll get it but i didn't send it today cos i had to help around the exhebition in the morning and when i finished post office stopped working, on monday there is a celebration in f*ckin cyprus so i'll send it on monday no worries mate!

@Alex

in my sig its about our country our mother Ukraine :P that cossacks will never die and shit and that soon the fortune will smile to us and we will rise! And in the end its UKRAINE RULE! hehe i like it a lot hehe

@Mike

Wow Antartican? thats kewl! Should be cold there :P somethin like in Siberia! lol!

Mondays fine BuLLDoGG. What I meant was, that you said you were giving me 7, not CS, because you didn't have any copies of it. So your giving me CS then?

*must get back to kicking some TIE fighter butt in X-Wing aliance*

yea i made some copies of CS so u get CS its cool almost the same wif 7

Lol, that's an awsome sig:P Since this has become a nationality thread i think that we (ukraine) would be better if we became like russia and expanded Territory and had lots of nukes:P:P:P But yeah, fortune shoudl shine on us! We haven't done anything wrong! Go UKRAINE!!:P

By the WAY we, UKRAINE, WON the Eurovison and in 2005 the Eurovision show will happen in KIEV!!!

@Moderators

Sorry for non-english. in AlexMatrix post it said that he is glad that there is a ukranian in here and i replied with the same further post will be in english!

The EUROVISION, big deal. I think there was only TWO songs in that where someone could actually sing. The Eurovision is purley political! The music is rubbish IMHO

that ur opinion and i had enough arguments here in Cyprus man cos Cypriots are very jealous the Ukraine won and they came 5th so realy i don't give a f*ck wha any1 says Ukraine will still be on a first place and eurovision 2005 will be in Ukraine! :)

Was cyprus the one with that young girl that COULD sing?

(She was ENGLISH from KENT!) lol

that young girl COULD NOT sing, she was fat, ugly with shitty voice! Man lets quit it cos this topicrealy irritates me! :)

Fine ok i'm going!

Canyoureadthis?

huh?! WTF? wha do u mean "can i read this?"? :screwy:

Dunno, just a bit bored. Trying to find a colour that matched the background.
