Loving Adobe Photoshop!

With the new printer I needed new software to handle the demands required for the larger prints. Although not the "grand daddy" of the Photoshop choices, Elements 5.0 has some great things about it. I've already mentioned how well the giclees are turning out. Today I spent the better part of the afternoon working on some layout and design ideas for the Kelly Motorsports tee shirt.

The car (a Pontiac Firebird) is nicknamed "The Outlaw." A few nights ago I came up with the concept of a old western "wanted" poster for the shirt concept. Me and my good friend (and new boss at KMI) Paul Constantine kicked around some ideas earlier today and we got real excited about the possibilities!

Anyway, the creative juices got to flowing and I thought I'd pass along some of the fun possibilities that Photoshop generated. The first photo is one that I "stole" from the IHRA website. I cropped it down and used it as a starting point. By the way, Paul is the guy at the the top right side of the picture. He's the one holding his ears like a little girl...
