There obviously are some people who still own windows 3.1. I even have all install disks.

Anyways, Photoshop CS4 Extended is much more convienent for tasks as recoloring.

son of a !$@!$@#$%#$5

I just spent 30 min posting the rule only to have the forum eat it.

The first item was as simple as i could find...

A simple box that is a... Semi-Trailer.
I was up in the air between a trailer and a container.

If you paint it as a container stay in the lines of the trailer and Ill make it into a container.


The end toy you win is a road trailer AND some sort of intermodal train. 2 for bonus.

Ok.. lets make the rules again..
  • 1.download the zip file.
  • 2. paint the item with your favorite paint like program.
  • 3.You must leave the item 512x512 or 1024x1024 BMP. (there are no alpha channels)
  • 4. PM me your entry in a zip/rar/7zip with the topic "REPAINT"
  • 5 post a 256x256 PNG in this thread for others to see.
  • 6 sometime next Sunday (March 28th) Ill close the entries and post a new pool for voting. Edit* 1 week or 20 entries. whatever comes first. there is a limit of 20 for voting.
  • 7 the poll will run for a guess 1 week?
  • 8 in the case of a tie, we go to sudden death and I kill you both, err ill make them both. I'm kind.
  • 9 i forgot what 9 was. there were 20 rules. wtf...
  • 10 if i get to busy to close the entries. ill let you slip in until i get time. (consider it open till i close it.)
  • 11 you are limited to 1 entry ( yeah i said you can upload 3.. i might change my mind on this at any time. I changed my mind. those that already submited one, I'll allow you to change or edit it before the deadline)
  • 12 I'm allowed to break, bend or change the rules or close the contest at anytime I want.
  • 13 any items submited become my property and can do with as I wish... AKA.. if i really really like a loosing item... I might make it anyways or suggest you submit it again the next time we do this item. (I wont sell it lol)
  • 14 the winning item will be posted in this thread, it will stay only in this thread and not posted anywhere else due to copyrights involved.
  • 15 winning items may be removed at anytime due to unforseen circumstances.
any suggestions and feedback are most welcome.


(I want to give credit to the person that made the Image File used for the template, Unfortunately I have no clue who it was. help?)
The end model will be a custom MAX model so there will be no issues with copyrights. I used this skin because mine was to messy to use.

Kalvin. 2 things.

1 thats better :D

2 the blue and the text will prbably blend into the same shade of gray in lomo. just for others to know. we can adjust the color later if that wins.

Lego. that is soooooo.. you.

wait it is so BB..

I'm starting to think the 3 per person might be to much for the poll. you can only have 20 votes? perhaps I should change that to 1 for now incase more then 20 enter.

May the force be with you.
