So am I. I have a REALLY old version of PhotoDeluxe that worked on Win98 and locks up on me all the time now. Any good freeware out there for this?

I am using Photoshop 7 for this one, but I do have photoshop CS3 on my other PC. I got them from a friend. I believe he said the CS3 program was normally several hundred bucks.

The painting + the gold looks great ! Go for it. I would just also change the OEM pipes and seat. I just hate that gap......

Thanks WarCowboy for the info. I'm gonna have to see if I can find an old/new copy of Photoshop 7 (is that the oldest of the two, CS3 or PS7?). The bike looks great, btw. I love doing what you're doing with the bike to see what looks good. Keep us informed!

7 is the older of the two, and the one I used for this.
There really isn't a huge amount of difference between the two that makes one worth several hundred dollars more to me.
I was just lucky, and friend gave me both programs including correl draw 11, which I use for my vinyl cutter to make sticker and shirts with.
The beauty of having at least two different editing programs, is one will have features the other doesn't and so forth, so with that being said, you can switch back and forth from one to the other to get even better details.
My friend that gave me the programs taught me most of the programs' abilities, and I learned, and am still learning to fully utilize them. I am still no where close to being expert with this stuff.
Its not hard to learn, but you still have to have an eye for it, other wise one just can't advance.

I really like the Eastwood on Rocker idea. I have the blue and wonder where a guy could get something like that done?

I would suspect any high end airbrush artist could muster it up for you. I don't look for it to be cheap though. I have an airbrush setup however, and I plan to do it on my own. Unless I can figure out how to get it screen printed on the tank like they apply the decals from the harley custom shop. Its a process I am not to familiar with, but it would yield the best results, and I am sure I can figure out where or how to get it done.
