B.....ok I tried some ideas with that new pic and here is the problem.That pic is so tall that in order to fit it into a sig I had to make it very very small.Can you get some different pics of your car in its present state? Prefferably side shots and front/side angular shots from ground level.Hit me back and let me know.

2j... that font is called Wintermute, located here......

toyo......when you say images are you talking about the car reflections or the chrome look on the Lexus- dragon symbol and text? Neither one of those were done using a plugin.Put simply the car reflections were done by just using the original image and now that I look back at this sig I could have done the reflections alot better( I have learned alot since I made this sig) And the chrome of the symbol and text was done by following a few simple steps.If you want me to try and describe it just let me know.Is that what you were asking? if not let me know.

toyo.....yeah basically you just wanna flip the image vertically and then play with some blurring, kinda make it more blurry towards the bottom of the reflection, also feather the image alot and then cut off the bottom of it to make it look as if it were fading away.Its alot easier to do with a car pic taken directly from the side of the car angular shots are more dificult cause you have to transform the reflection, something I didnt do on bdragons sig
