Thanks guys:tup: For the links, I saw some pretty usefull and suprizingly VERY SIMPLE tutorials!
thanks alot, I'll get started now

And layers seem to be what photoshop is all about...my gosh..

Edit: AND I GOT PROGRESS THE SAME DAY!!!!!!! I wanted to make it magazine but...size is wrong...anyway, franz, your PM does't matter anymore, I got a solution! Give some comment PLEASE?!
And how do you make an image of 1.1MB small enough to let it be uploadd by imageshack, WITHOUT losing bad quality like this?

 

[franz]

you saving a wrong format
when you are done in photoshop
save as, choose JPG format (around 10, the quality will be pretty decent already)
now you saved as GIF ... which will downgrade the color depth
hope you did save your work as PSD format (photoshop format)
so you can re-save it as JPG

 

[G-T-4-Fan]

Yes thats no problem.
Any other editing tips maybe?

 

[franz]

hmm ... learn layer mask, it is very useful imo
like the one you have done, you need to remove those white background that surrounding the logos, layer mask is great way to remove them while you don't have a steady hand

Good Day everybody in the "ugly Car" Compo!

I'm still holding tight on my commitment to NOT enter this compo.
But would like to ask if all you "ugly car" enthusiasts to hustle your creative behinds over to Week 9's compo:
https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=65957

Seems to be a lack of participants... not much of a compo if only a few people are in it....

C'mon Easy$$$, ya now ya wanna do it... and I know there's not much time,
but hey... dealines are good for the creative brain...

Heh. Like everyone else mentioned... Ugly cars are a matter of opinion, so everyone picks cars that they really don't like. For me, the two cars on my cover are unbearable to own and will be deleted the next time I go in my garage. They were bought just for this competition.

It's tough to be enthusiastic about taking pictures of cars that you dislike.
