What exactly are you looking for? Do you want your car in motion, lowered, different wheels, color change... or were you just looking for an image touchup?

 

image touch up. and make everything look more sharp.

 

maybe we can get a decent thread going.

I always use auto color/auto contrast and sharpen image. too much sharpening will affect the way your pics appear when on different monitors. I did some sharpening on my computer, looked awsome. on my work computer it looked like absolute as$.

whats everyone else's ways of photochoping.

 

I touched it up a little.

what did u done to it ??

 

-auto levels
-layer&gt;duplicate layer&gt;blending options&gt;changed normal to screen. (helps fix underexposed images)
-resized
-unsharp mask&gt;sharpen edges

If i had noise ninja i would have used it to reduce the noise.

 

its a lil too dark.

 

 

Autol-evels is for *******. Get into the level functions manually and slide some bars until you see what you want to see. It's not rocket science, fellas.

 

Auto-levels works too damn good half the time to not, at least, try it all the time.
Of course, the half that it doesn't work, do it manually... or use the auto for a starting point.

 

CHANGES:

levels (output 35 - 255)
contrast (30)
saturation (15)
unsharpmask (100 - .5 - 25)
Selective Color (yellows (black -30)

I also took the blur tool and blurred some of the noise in the clouds.


Result:

 

looks pretty cool. anymore ?
