Inouva, as brandons said, the skin looks low-res. I would take the shot again with a clean skin, and then use some brushes to do the dirt manually.

A question that has been bothering me for quite some time: How do you blur the tire tread correctly? (when the wheel is at an angle)

Why so small pic, Raito? You even had hi-res asphalt.. Looks good thou.

Yes, delete the skin from LFS/data/skins and skins.dds folders.

Something really quick. I kinda like the angle.

You did ask Maggot's permission first, right?
Well, anyways, I remember the old database had back-up files for download (i.e. default dds and pic folders). I think those would be nice for the new site as well, I've seen a lot of guys requesting original dds files over at misc addons section.

Jeez.. We can't see pictures that are on your computer. Use the forum's attachment tool, or upload the pics on a hosting site and link there. Also, are you requesting something?

Quote from JO53PHS :

And also some more comments regarding closing it a day earlier would be appreciated

Go for it.

I'm so glad that you got this pack out so early, Lynce. My service in army starts 7th of July, so now I've got more than a month to play with your outstanding addon, instead of just a week if you had released the pack 1st of July. Too bad I still have to wait till Thursday to test the pack..

Hot damn, that's beautiful!

Very good job on that Pennzoil skin, Mike!

The site looks really good, I think I'll upload something when I'll get back to my computer. One suggestion though, I think the sub categories should be arranged something like this
BF1 - FXR (2)
FBM - FZ5 (3)
FO8 - FZR (1)
FOX - ...
FXO (1)

Voted. Some really great entries this week, maxiim especially!

Voting thread?

DeviantArt is a great place to find burshes

Great work! But why did you have to put those fake lights there..

Now that the big S looks ok, the rest of the logos look blurry But it's not that bad, I guess. Just remember on your future skins, never up-scale your logos. If you make the logos bigger than their original resolution, they will always lose quality.
Two other things I suggest: fix the white lines on the borders, and move the motul logos in the back down a bit, so that they don't get streched by the bumper.

The big sparco S is horribly blurry. I'm sure you can find a better image to replace that.

@Mike, Tomba: Thanks guys! Wheels are standard Starion wheels, I was thinking of some other classics too, like watanabes, but couldn't find suitable donor pics.

@jensbrix: Sweet!

preview - hi-res

Doesn't really matter as it must be converted to .jpg anyway to work with LFS..

I think this new system is good. Thanks to everyone who voted for me, I got to say that the win came as a suprise. I've sent JO53PHS the theme for next week, I really hope this gets more attention than my last theme..

.png doesn't work with LFS, and I'm not gonna convert it to .jpg myself.

Have you checked Tomba's workshop? He's made textures for XR and RB4, and they look very high quality. Haven't tested myself, since I think the default XR textures are nice enough.
