Drftpretty · 01-06-2007, 10:12 PM

That was a stencil I had made in graphic design class that was on the doors of my Rx7 when it was in primer.

I was proud of it, and still am lol

**TROLL** · 01-06-2007, 10:12 PM

i've never done that but its a damn good idea, i'll have to do it now... haha

Drftpretty · 01-06-2007, 10:15 PM

lol, I guess it is a jewish thing.

The hard part is keeping your hand very steady while you hold the camera the perfect distance away from the PC screen so that the frame cuts out the White border around the pic.

EvlEgl · 01-06-2007, 11:31 PM

I do it...Done it many times.

TGilb2007 · 01-06-2007, 11:31 PM

I usually use random pics that I take on the phone. I know I got bored enough once to actually take a pic of my shirt, and use that, since I was sick of everything else that was on my phone.

SexyDSM95 · 01-06-2007, 11:45 PM

You have the BB Pearl...you can resize the image to the specs of your phone and just upload it...it would be better resolution/quality

**TROLL** · 01-06-2007, 11:51 PM

i have a cable to transfer music and pics, i just havent taken the time to learn how to use it yet

PotenzaSub · 01-07-2007, 12:52 AM

I've done it before.

james_ls · 01-07-2007, 04:29 AM

Bryan...you literally plug it in and Windows might fully detect the folders and everything.

Works like a big-flash drive.

Bizee · 01-07-2007, 09:45 AM

ha alot of people at my one retail job come in and try to crop the images on shirts perfectly in pictures on their cell phones for wallpaper.. sounds almost like playing the mp3s on your computer and saving them on the phone using the voice record option so you dont have to download the song.. heh

69 Mach 1 · 01-07-2007, 03:23 PM

ive done it many times but its hard to get the picture to come out right it always looks dark or something it has to be at the perfect angle

smoger · 01-07-2007, 04:49 PM

way easier to just use a data cable or bluetooth to copy the pictures onto the phone.

you guys with moto's .. all you need is the motorola phone tools program and it works really easy. if your phone is unlocked theres other programs you can get that are harder to set up and use but they let you do seem editing, change features of the phone, delete preinstalled stuff, etc.

and if you have a mac its even easier, just turn on the phones bluetooth and have the mac detect it.
