ryan_hermanutz Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 For those of you that don't have Photoshop or something similar, I found a program that is free and is a cross between Photoshop and paint. I'm not a Photoshop guy, so I don't know much about it, but I was able to color match my truck with this. Search for paint.net and download it.

I've never used it because I have Photoshop but download.com speaks very highly of it... and they are pretty darn reliable. Looks like it's worth a shot and it's free. Here's a link http://www.download.com/Paint-NET/3000-2192_4-10338146.html EDIT: I just loaded it on a test machine. We'll see how it works. You'll need to have or install Microsoft's .NET framework. (download it 63MB - not for the 56K crowd!)

ryan_hermanutz Posted July 31, 2008 Author Posted July 31, 2008 Any pictures of the results? I'll try putting them on tonight when I get home.
Zembonez Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 Speaking of test machines, how those puters working for ya? Bought a battery for the Averatec and Emily uses it on the back screened in patio having morning coffee. Other one is still sitting here untouched! All is good. Still no Corvette for you though!
Zembonez Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 This program works pretty well. I've been playing with it and it's a worthy PS substitute if you are on a budget. (it's free)
carneyman Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Eric,I guess you want a Corvette too huh? I would drive a ZR1...or any other corvette. Heck, I would even take a 90's model. Why, ya wanna give me one?

Why, ya wanna give me one? Ha-Ha,NO...I want one myself!!! I've wanted a Corvette for years,A buddy of mine is trying to talk me into getting rid of my truck and getting one. I told him not until I can and have my truck and a Corvette too....I want both!!!! I keep saying I'll get one when the trucks paid off,the only trouble with that....as soon as its almost paid off I go and buy another new truck!! I hate when we have a new Corvette on the showroom floor,Its too tempting to trade the truck in for it!
ryan_hermanutz Posted August 1, 2008 Author Posted August 1, 2008 Here is a picture that I doctored up. Understand I suck at it and it only took me about 1/2 and hour. It's good from far, but far from good.

Maybe you could "accidentally" leave the keys to a new one somewere, and the corvette could "walk off" all on its own...
