Who wants their bike Photoshopped!

[SPORK]

Hey, I am stuck at home, and have nothing to do, so if you want your bike photoshopped, just post us a line! This is a continuation of the photoshopping that happened over in the "STOLEN BIKE' thread. Thought it would be best to move it over here because it was way off topic.

Here are a couple of sample pictures that were done by me in the other forum...

Celticno6 is better at this than me, so he might like to help out as well.

Well, send them in!

What I do for colour replacement is to select the area, go Image... Adjustments... Hue/Saturation, select the 'colourize' button, and drag the sliders around till you are happy!

Nice bike Artifice, I will start to work on it. What do you want done on it though?

madcat's on the right track with what he's saying - there's some other things you can do as well, with selected via colour ranges and using the selections as layer masks for adjustments/colour layering.

Here's a couple for Artifice. A Red Gixxer and a Gold one.

If any of you would like the .psd file, send me a PM with your emaill addy in it and I'll send you the file (6MB) that created them.

[riffer]

Or how about Purple Paisley?

[SPORK]

Thanks a lot celticno6, I was doing a red one! :msn-wink: Oh well, I guess my one will have to be more special

[riffer]

Or you could even go Green Paisley if you like...

Hope you're not thinking of a custom camouflage job!!!

Nice colours though. Go Upper Hutt!!!

All silver (including screen)

Including the screen? Hmmmm, I dunno... But if you say so! I think that it should be two tone though? Could be Red/Silver?
:niceone:

Celticno6. No! By pure accident I did Hertaunga colours! Damn! I'm UHC! Pretty bad school though anyways. Got a CBR250R and a FXR150 there though!

Could you please change my bike to look better too.

Some very impressive artwork. How long do you spend on each photo? If you feel like another one you are welcome to have a go on my bike.

[SPORK]

How long? It depends; I spent around 10 minutes on Toads' bike, about half an hour on Artifices', and around 20 on Blakamin's. It all comes down to how long it takes to get the selections all perfect. I will see how long it takes to do your bike, I want to flame this one as well!

[aff-man]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yeh ok i think i have had my fun :whistle:

[vifferman]

Did you make my bike look good to? Do I send the picture again to you? But please donot make it pink like the other one. That is a womans color.
Madcat - do not be mad but your picture looks like that general from south America.

[riffer]

\Madcat - do not be mad but your picture looks like that general from south America.
Yeah I thought he looked a bit like Ernesto Guevara too ... it's a startling likeness. :msn-wink:

[gav]

Pink eh? yeah those Brittens are such girls bikes :innocent:
OK Madcat, have a go with my bike, one thing is no matter what you do its probably going to look better than it does now, I think there is about 4 or 5 different colour schemes on it at the moment! ahhh, ebay, you gotta love it!

[dhunt]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yeh ok i think i have had my fun :whistle:Yeah that does look pretty funny. You sure wouldn't miss it.

[aff-man]

sorry ching i got bored doing it the old fashioned way, but when i have tech work to do this will be an excellent procrastination device aye, this is a rough (very rough) start

[Wenier]

Well im still messing round with my bike but for a start the first shot is purple turned to black i think it looks better, and the second shot is the wheels done, once i have time ill do frame suspension, and so on. If it were a car i could change the mags on it, on a bike i find it too hard to do.

hey guys, a bit oh paint makes the bike look really different.
i was thinking or removing the red and white from the tail and replacing with black, with a blue strip.

[SPORK]

Yep, I'm working on it, I missed your first post for a couple of hours. Mad? Why would I be mad?! He is a very inspiring man, if you want to find out about him go to www.che-lives.com, it is a very informative site. All I can say is that we need more people like him.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA yeh ok i think i have had my fun

[scoobie doo noise] Huhhhhhhh [/scoobie doo noise]

Aff man, how were you doing the tank and tail peice? It looks liike you have the saturation too high. Try putting the saturation down, and the lightness down as well.

Gav, I think it is too colourfull for a normal paintjob, but I think I could turn it into a pretty good psuedo-pimp mobile :)

And in case you guys are wondering why I am on at 4:30, I have been coughing and choking all night long, I don't think I want to go to sleep for fear of dying :msn-wink:

[SPORK]

Oh yeah, did you like the Urban Camoflauge and dark green? I thought it was awesome (patting myself on my back)

[SPORK]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v388/madcat_/gavbike.jpg

Still Going! I like the deeeep blue on this (new) bike. I think that I patched it up sufficiently. Next, GoatMans bike!

[SPORK]

Could you please change my bike to look better too.
Done! I like the blue tank, and gold plated engine. Hope you enjoy :)

Here are some I prepared earlier (notice the theme - LOL)

Mad - you need to try and retain the light texturing on the photos otherwise the colours look to flat. Try using colour replacement etc rather than just hue/saturation.

[riffer]

Hi Madcat,

Try your voodoo on this.

All red (including screen)
All silver (including screen)

Afterwards whatever you want.

Shot brudder!

ching Hows this ching ching. Red and Purple, with carbon fibre frame...

oh, and custom eclipse wheels, anodised purple.

[SPORK]

There you go again, making me look bad :P
Oh well, I have another day at home to refine my skillz.
We need more KB bikes!

[NordieBoy]

Canvassed bodywork and upgraded the fork-sliders.

Do you want the blinker fixing?

[sAsLEX]

Damn, that is a mega shame, i mean, the bike looked so good! What year was it?

[Coyote]

Hey Madcat. I see why you were away from school for the last 2 days. How about getting a pic of a bike with a rider on it. Then you could do some urban camo on their leathers. Or, even better, change them into a pimp, just like your westside jeep. Infact you should post up the jeep and a couple of other pics of yours.

[NordieBoy]

Nope, a CHINESE knock off! What guitar/s do you have? I think I read in your profile that you are into them. I also have a Squire Bullet, but I want to get an ESP EX50. With James' Hammer and Sickle, and my Che Guevara, people will think we are a family of socialists :P

Since no one wants to do my tail conversion, I'll just have to do it myself.

Here you go - my FZR750R with an R6 rear end:

[Jamezo]

Hey, Madcat here, on Jamezo's computer. Mine is completely rooted, so I won't be on for about a week, could be longer though. I can't open any programs or anything! I can connect to the net but that is about it. I'm taking it back to Dick Smith's tomorrow, so hopefully they can get it back and running. I'm glad I have a 5 year unlimited warrenty :)
Well, tata, I just wish I could of been doing some of the photoshopping that I have seen here.

And Alarumba, can you tell everyone on MSN that I won't be on till the end of the week at least? This will be the hardest week of my life :P

[SPORK]

Fixxed! I'm so great! Nah, really it was teh fine people at www.annoyances.org . Very, very good advice there!

Now I can get back to photoshopping!

[Blakamin]

so what was it?

[SPORK]

Some virus that made it so I needed an exe to run ANY exe, then deleted the exe (mpldfg.exe) I downloaded a registry hack though, and it put things back in their place. Quite a lot of people have been hit by it, and I am just glad that it is good and gone from my computer! :D
