It wasn't your Photoshop skills that gave you away, it was the fact that you used one of the same pics that you had on your web page. All it took was a little detective work.

By the way true blue looks cool.

Did you use the magnetic lasso to outline the truck and then change the color? I can't seem to just change the color of the truck.

I manually traced the edges of the truck. I don't trust the magnetic lasso and end up having to clean up the edges anyway.

I then made several copies of the truck body and varied the hue, as well as the blending mode to bring back the contrast between the highlights and shadows, etc.

I shoulda removed the original image from my server... incriminating evidence.

I thought you did a really good job with Photoshop.

Thanks OneRedTXBolt. I deliberated for DAYS trying to decide between red and silver. That was easy to compare because pics of both are readily available. The only place I can see a blue L (today at least) is in good ol' Photochop.

Anyone for green? Probably too subdued for a Lightning...
