    ATTENTION painters!

    this is a chopping contest, but with one huge difference, you must use paint. the requirments are:
    1)you must have new rims put on
    2)you must paint something (new paint job, decal,etc.) on the body of the car
    3)have the entry in by feb 29 2004
    4) have fun and learn new paint tequniques

    if you have any questions for paint chops just ask me, the self-proclaimed paint Guru

    here is the picture

    to me, photoshop is a luxury. i am pretty good with photoshop also, but it is good to be good with the basic paint program.

    Sorry Batmobile, but I don't drive a steam-engined horseless carriage, preferring to use modern efficient and powerful automobiles.

    I'll stick with Paintshop and leave vintage alome

    errr well you can't really compare them.... photoshop has so many more possibilities, if the result would be the same you'd be right.... but I can't make the things in paint as I make in photoshop

    i don't have phtoshop, so i had to become good with paint, and now i'm better than some at paint that they are at photoshop.
    paint is a bit outdated and i think that a newer version should be made.
    as soon as i get photoshop i will probably nat use paint anymore though, but i won't abandon it.

    but, i think by useing this archaic imaging system it will be more callenging and more competitive if anyone wants to try.

    i'm changing the rules, just do it with photoshop or whatever other thing you have, because either people don't have paint or they don't want to do it in paint.
