Also the outside of the end cells (right above the stabilizers black also.... I think when Jesus said "love your enemy" he probably meant don't kill them.

Bottom skin full black. All inner ribs red. Wickedly ! Not sure what color i'd pick for the stabs though. Probably red, or just leave them plain black too. btw.

DJL 235 #9 October 21, 2003 I personally think that black is a poor choice on a canopy. It makes it look dingy and it doesn't provide any contrast with your mostly black jumpsuit and rig. Here's my take. Nitingale, hit the Print Screen button, open up "Paint" or whatever art software and paste. Then cut out what you want and paste it in another screen, save as."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jillr 0 #10 October 21, 2003 alt + print screen, paste the image into paint and save. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BBKid 0 #11 October 21, 2003 Press, Print Screen, then go to your paint program and hit paste. Here's my entry... Nick --------------------------- "I've pierced my foot on a spike!!!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casch 0 #12 October 21, 2003 I was about to say "No, it's Ctrl + Print Screen", but I just tried it with alt, they both work Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kansasskydiver 0 #13 October 21, 2003 either or does the same ALT and PRT SCR or just PRT SCR if you go into paint you can then just press CTRL V and that will paste it in there for ya<--- See look, pink dolphins DO exist! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casch 0 #14 October 21, 2003 Can you post a pic of your jumpsuit so we design it to match a little better? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Casch 0 #22 October 21, 2003 You can either try reducing the size of the image, or reducing the quality. It's quite easy to do with the standard Imaging program with windows, but you can get better results with a program like Photoshop E-mail me the screenshot and I'll shrink it for you, just use Casch@dropzone.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rehmwa 2 #23 October 21, 2003 Since the container and jumpsuit match, you already look good walking to the plane. With the rig closed, you can see the canopy, Why not make the parachute something 'not' your colors? I'm Smoke, Dark Green and silver with a neon green poptop. But here's my canopy. I like the contrast and I know I'll find it faster if there's a cutaway. ...
