LOL, you are joking right? 

Read the post above yours, that guy claims "GIMP" works fine, try that.

I can confirm that Gimp does indeed open Photoshop PSDs.

alright i got some more.

I like the black one with all of the logos on it.

Yeah, I'm using photoshop 7.
If anyone is having problems opening the templates off of my server, it is probably because I put them in rar format (it makes it download faster), just unzip it with Winrar and open with photoshop or gimp.

Yeah, I do too. Fantastic work. The one with the Mustang speedo isn't bad either. Nice bit of thinking.

Hopefully this is the last stage or else you may mess it up, it's really good as it is.

Love the logo on the sidewall..  Just need to do something with the rest of the faceplate..  Try zooming in on it a bit more...  I think you're on a good track though !!

i know. i was wondering if anyone was paying attention. just a little joke.

nice one! I'm not really sure why but I can usually spot a GT photo from any other photo. I think its maybe because to me the cars really dont look 3D, they have a thin look to them. Forza and PGR cars have more of a thickness to the graphics. You can also see the textured windows (black lines on the glass), and the license plate is the dead giveaway.

As for the rest of you graphically inclined people, what about using the memory card slots as exhaust? I'm sure there's a car that would almost align with that (eg: C5-C6 Vette maybe?). Also, Pagani Zonda might look good with the exhaust on the power button.

great idea. i love that car. heres a rough one i'll make a better one tommorrow.

^ I thought of the Zonda last night after flicking through some mags! LOL!

OK I did another one, nothing spectacular although I have included the new Forza 2 tagline*

* May not actually be Forza 2 tagline!

My other ones which I have slightly updated

Skate - I love that design, although  I would suggest cutting off the tiny bit of 'RPM' visable, and maybe a version with the car pic only fading at the side, not at the top and bottom as well, this is what I mean:

Just trying to help - no criticism, it's still very good - def. in my top 3!

looks nice! I decided to try Photoshop out... err, with mixed results...Here's what I got:

Audio, you've got some great designs here.  I really like that turbo with the sketched engine in the background.  Do some cleaning up on the turbo, maybe add something to that area and I'd buy it without thinking twice.

Really like the logos!



Got some pics of my die casts, now I just have to figure out how to merge the faceplate with the pics in MS paint..
