Bike silhouette pics needed

Post by Cath »

Hey guys,
I need some cool silhouette pics of bikes for a project I'm starting soon. I'm not having any luck finding any.
If anyone has any pics that could be used as a silhouette, I'd be extremely grateful.

I need an image that has a simple and clear outline. A bike and rider, or a bike alone - either is fine

Thanks in advance if anyone has anything!

A couple of weeks, I guess.
If you have something brilliant for me, that can't be revealed until a full moon on the seventh month, I can wait... If it's brilliant :lol:

hey cath,

i should be able to get you a pic of the twofiddy soon that you can use!

also, given my propensity for internet window shopping and the fact that i was in the market for a bike a few months ago, i noticed that on bikesales some of the bikes on there are shot from side on on quite clean backgrounds.... i think bikebiz take pics of bikes next to a white wall, and betterbikes in cantebury do the same thing...

this may or may not help you..

btw what resolution or pixel dimensions do you need???

cheers

G'day Cath, I suppose you've already done this - google images & motorcycle silhouettes. They are pretty small images though. :(
I've spent over 40 years of my life riding bikes .... the rest of it, I wasted ..

It's actually a toy sitting on top of my monitor, but you'd never know...

I'll have a play with photoshop when I get home. Might even get the camera out at the weekend and see what I can sort...

Seen my sig?
There it is :arrowd:
I think I have about 170 similar shots from all angles
The sig is actually high res and taken on a 7.0 mega pixies camera so detail is relatively fine. I can send through some pics in low res and you can pick what you need. Each file is between 3 and 5 meg so choose carefully :D
I got a sweater for my birthday. I realy wanted a moaner or a screamer.

But seriously . .. :lol:

Cath ... if you can find some actual pickies you would like silhoutted .. Im quite capable of doing it...

Do a google of what ya want .. PM me the links of ya faves and Ill be quite happy to change em round how ya want ...

Just remember that if you want the entire bike/rider blacked out .. it would have to be a specific angle. .. If you want something similar to the KSRC logo .. we can still tweat it a bit . . ;)
