looks abit like a coupe front bumper?

heres a quick shop with a coupe bumper that I've also done the foglight mod on:

I think the quare foglights look better tbh fella. Round ones always look standard and girlyish to me lol.

Took the car for a wash today, then for a little photo shoot to test out my new camera phone (N80):

OMG that N80 camera owns Nokia's new flagship camera's (N95/N73), the colour processing is spot on, and none of this shitty colour algorythm that makes everything too contrasty and vibrant and fake!

Car looks great as well!

I ad a very quick play with the first photo in Paintshop Pro 8, and that camera is amazing for a phone camera, ya deffo went for a goodun there. Its up alongside the K800 imho (possibly missing a bit of detail in comparison, but thats about it).

Gonna get some great results with it even though I managed to make it a bit noisy lol!

Thanks Mate, I feel all smug with myself now.

What exactly have you done to the pic, I can notice the difference in the colours etc but what did you adjust to create it.

oh yeah aswell Matty, they have been resized to 640 x 480 from the original 2048 x 1536

Just a few subtle changes in PSP 8 (quite an old program by todays standards, but I really like using it compared to CS3).

I changed the colour balance slightly, to make it a bit warmer, played abit with the boldness and contrast, made it a touch more saturated, and sharpened it a bit. Oh I also lowered the brightness a touch.

Only took a few seconds to get it like that, it goes to show how good the image quality is, a few minutes and it would probably have been better with less noise lol.

I think CS3 would have given off less noise if I had used that for sharpening as it is much better then PSP8, but the time it takes CS3 to load, I had done all these changes already in PSP lmao!

yea it does take the piss loadin but worth it when it has lol... liking the new pics waddi
