By chance can you do a nice large over the front top angle one like the intial picture that was posted here?
From dead on front or dead on back, it's just... well... it's just.

Re: C6 wallpaper (H82BFST)
I want to do a top-rear view, but the only post I've seen so far cuts of the driver's side rear fender. If better images are posted, I'll be glad to "clean them up".

Great!
But did you know the aspect ratio is wrong for a PC screen? 1600x1046, SB 1600x1200.
Thanks! :seeya

What OS do you have? Windows 98, 2000, and XP will resize it automatically if you "set as desktop background"

Re: C6 wallpaper (Another Yellow)
Purple version of his pic, anyone?
How about a green version of his work?
Yellow, perhaps?
Who likes blue?
Light blue?
Once you go black, you never go back...
All Corvettes are red...
Silver...

I split the original into its red, green, and blue components. I then reassembled in different orders to get other colors. It just so happens that orange is a perfect source color for doing this.
It took me a while to figure out how to do red. What I ended up doing was splitting the original into its hue, saturation, and luminocity channels and then set the hue channel to black and recombined.
In all cases I then put the modified image as a layer over the original and erased what didn't fit (like purple side markers and such.)
