Would anyone believe this?
would you believe it if you drove up on this truck in a rural farm town?

I would assume that someone used the springs for another purpose and just left it sitting like that

"photoshop is a cool program...." are you pulling a fast one on us? If so, I can't tell it from that photo.

looks real to me
look at the shadows under the truck and the contrast from the background to the truck. unless
he cut and pasted the bottom portion of the truck (wheels and ground) and pasted them closer to the truck, i say the picture is real.... |

I saw a truck like that, but it was loaded with about 60 bales of hay stacked like an upside down pyramid. Never thought anyone would do that on purpose.

Thanks for the compliments!
I only spent about 10-15 minutes but I thought it turned out pretty decent. As others will tell you, some pics are easier than others. Here's the transformation....

I SOLVED the mystery. Sombody snuck in there and tore down that shed, then they STACKED UP ALL THOSE BOARDS AND BLOCKS in the back of that poor longbed truck. The guy who tries to drive it is going to be very sad -- it's going to drag all the way to the dump. (besides, they dented the rear fender while loading the old shed).
Next time you tear down a shed, save the chevy, use a dumptruck! Brian

And... quick hack. These can be done quite realistically if you spend some time with it.

I must have photoshop now. I have seen other people use it here on this board but this was a great one! How much does it cost and what program do I need to have different rims and tires?

ok, I have Photoshop 6, so how involved is it to do this? If someone points me in the right direction on what to do, I can learn and play as I go. Thanks..............
