I need to learn to take pictures like you do. All those effects are really awesome and make the truck stand out. And no truck is complete without a riding partner like that.

If you're running an android phone - get Picsplaypro - it's what I use. costs a couple bucks but you can do some cool effects with pictures

Or you can use photobucket.... I edit with that almost daily, take a pic, upload it from my phone, edit on the computer then post up! I did this one today of my girlfriend and I's new pup!

Original


New


Im very traditional when it comes to light editing, I want to keep the background colors and clarity. I like the 2nd pic a lot. Looks like you sharpened it and upp'ed the hue a little bit! Makes it nice and vivid and crisp!

Didn't know you can edit on photobucket. All my pics are already there so that'll be really easy! Off to play for a bit lol

I have an iPhone 4 and have a bunch of apps I mess with when all my games get boring hahaha. The photobucket app makes it really easy to upload pics, the Camera+ app is good for layers and filters and such when you take the pic, also makes the pictures focus and take a little quicker. BeFunkyFx is a decent one for simple on the go things, and 360 would be perfect for you when you get on top of another mountain! You can do panoramics with 360 and its just awesome. For paintball I use Gimp 2.1 which is more like photoshop but I only do that when people offer money. Way to much work

I know that owning a dog definitely weighed in on the decision to get a Sport Trac over another Explorer or SUV (without a bed)

I dont have a dog.

Those are some nice photos, all we have down here is mud and swamp. Right now the place I like to wheel has chest deep water in some holes and you can't see them since everywhere is covered by a couple of feet of water.

With a bumper like I have this is what you'll see in your rearview mirror so don't even think about brake checking me. LOL



This one is of my Trac at the car show with some of my custom truck club members (Down2EarthCustoms).

Thinkin bout buying 15in wheels to save some $. You can buy Mickey Thompson 15in wheels and 33-12.50-15 BFG all terrains for about the same price it cost to buy 285-75-16 to put on my stock wheels and then I would need to buy some spacers to get the look of the wider wheels n tires. How many of y'all are runnin the 33-12.50-15s and what back spacing are you runnin?
