Lemons iRacing League - How to Paint Your Virtual Heap

THIS THREAD IS MEANT TO PROVIDE RESOURCES, PERSONAL HELP, AND IDEAS TO PAINT YOUR iRACING Lemons CAR.

BE NICE, BE HELPFUL.

Painting/decorating your crapcan is an essential part of Lemons and if you don't do that, you suck (Looking directly at you, nondescript-black E36s). We don't want you to suck and we don't want Lemons iRacing to suck, so keep us all entertained by painting your car. Photoshop or GIMP (free, open-source photo editor) will be your friend here and—bonus—that means you can do things like:

* Put your own face on the car.
* Parody a copyrighted/trademarked character on your car in a way that totally doesn't violate copyright.
* NEVER EVER EVER EVER paint your car in Gulf Oil colors.
* Ya'll are creative, I have no doubts you can come up with good stuff.
