Default Big request to the PS Gods...

Alright, this winter I am thinking about doing some major cosmetic mods to my car. I am thinking about a new custom exhaust (since they make very very few), custom hood scoop (since they don't make hoods for my car), new paint job, and wheels repainted. I was thinking Spectra Mica Blue for the car, and gunmetal for wheels. Could someone paint my car, my wheels, and put a hood scoop on? Let me know at what angles/distance if you need other photos. ALso if anyone else has color combo ideas let me know. Attached is a pic of the hood (I don't really like this one, but it was the best I could find real wuick) (I am not sure if this style hood would even fit my car because how full my entire compartment is, and also isn't water a problem?)
Thanks so much,
Matt

Or what about the S2000 Veilside kit veilside.com. Would that look good on my car?

Or this one

This was a quick job, but it is still the best that I can do. I couldn't do the rims or the hood, I suck!

When you save the file in Adobephotoshop you use the Save a copy or Save as from the file menu. Then after you name the file, select type (JPG) and location you get a pop-up regarding the JPG quality where there is a slider for quality you should be able to bring the pic down into the Maximum size of 51200 bytes with out extreme loss of quality. Hope that helps

P.S. the size is in the lower left corner if I recall corectly might be in the lower right but it is in that pop-up.

Well it keeps doing it with pics that I save off the internet, or that I get with my digital camera.

well that is what I doing. take the photo big it up in Adobe down size the file resave it and add a SLQ in the file name (small low quality) that way I know for the future... speaking of future maybe futuregs has a better way or one of the other super choppers I am open for an easier way myself.

I got it but yeah that really messes up the quality, it is much much better on my computer. There must be a better way.

whens aving always do "Save for Web" then select JPG fromt he drop down menu on the right THEN split it up 2 way or 4 way and adjust the pic using the Quality slider on the right. Get the quality a notch under 54k and your set.
