I've always liked this one. PN member skinautique posted this one here a year or so ago.

You can make a color pic using B&W just through an editing program, right....

im looking to find the items to hang up on my walls in my office.........didnt know if anyone else found anything out there online

I looked around and had no luck finding any....probably your best best is to check with your dealer. I'm sure they have promotional posters of the newer boats up around the showroom. Maybe you can talk them out of some?

ryan, can't help you with pics but what I did for my office that I thought was cool, I went on ebay under correct craft and bought some of the old magazine ads from the '40s and '50s, (approx. 8x11) and put them in black pic frames, and hung them up on the walls, I thought they turned out pretty good!!

This is one that I did to give you an idea.

ryan, did you have any luck coming up with any pics??

[ryanandrews]

not at all..............hmmmmmmmmm, dunno, i might try your idea....was looking for something larger and black and white only......ill keep searching

I know you can't do it right now, but when the weather gets nice, take your boat out on the water, get your camera, get some black and white film, take some cool pics on and off the water and have them blown up into poster size! Price isn't too bad either!

jeff- my wife just said she thinks wal mart does that so a low fee.............great idea......thanks for all the help..

[ryanandrews]

now i just have to figure out how this digital camera takes black and white photos...my wife syas it does, so that willl work out great..

[MHayes]

ryan, the best bet is to take the pictures as you normally would using your digital camera and then load them into one of the many software packages that can manipulate the pictures. Even the simpliest ones can change the photo to B&W, with others being able to manipulate it to whatever you desire. I was just playing around with Adobe PhotoDeluxe, which I think came with my camera, and in 2 minutes had the following variations.

Very cool!! That sketch look would look sweet in a poster size pic, that just gave me some ideas too! Thanks MHayes!

A few more I was able to whip up....I think the solarize and posterize are my favorites.....hopefully this will give everyone interested some ideas.
