Hey all,

Thanks for all the really cool comments and support of my artwork. Im really suprised with the response that Im getting. I have done over 75 of these wallpapers now.

To tell you the truth Im getting a bit burned out. Im anxiously getting my business worked out and I have just returned from the printers and got my artwork back. It looks awsome.

I hope to have my website done soon and I am praying that I get the license from GM. I will be printing out emails and responses from this thread to send to them to show there is a demand for this.



I am glad that I was able to do some artwork for some of you...well over 60.... and I am sorry that I have to start declining freebies. I have just done a huge amount of these and I find it very hard to tell anyone no.


Thank you all for your support and I hope that you understand why Im going to have to start refusing. Ive just done way too many at the moment and I have only been doing these in my spare time.


I hope to have my business up and running soon but it takes a while to get a business off the ground if you want to do it right. So Im trying to be patient enough to get it done correctly.


Thanks again everyone!!!

SSAudio .. how did you put the black on your taillights it looks awesome , did you just paint them because that would be quite ingenious plus they can get stolen like normal blackout covers.

If they were Blackouts, they would look completely smooth in the back. Since you can clearly see the grids, SSAudio painted them, not sure of what though.

At least with the painted taillights you don't have to worry about blackouts ending up missing.

the lights are painted with clearcoat, mixed with a tint of black. A friend of mine is into painting, and we did both of ours. Looks better then black outs, and can't get stolen.

Well fellow thirdgenners, my wife and I have completed the General Motors License Agreement Application, and have sent it back with samples of work and testimonials.

I am praying that they will see this as an opportunity and hopefully I can hear back from them soon whether or not I got the permission to use GM logos.

I will be contacting the lawyer I spoke to earlier and see if they need anything else. If not it will just be a waiting game. He said it could take a month to finally know for sure if I can get the agreement.

Thank you all for taking interest in my work. Lord willing I will be starting business soon!

Later,
Bill

The GM license agreement was WAY TOO MUCH MONEY!!!!

so I decided to drop the logos being included into the artworks. I am officially opened for business if anyone is interested at all.

I have a paypal account and I am verified. Also check out my new website:
http://www.wdrdesign.com
for more information on the artwork and other products being offered.

Just follow the information on my website if your interested in getting an artwork.

Im so excited there is an auto event this saturday that my wife and I are attending. I hope to get some business there!

Thanks guys for taking interest!

Thanks goes out to all those that let me use there car in my artworks. I am excited about this summer. I will be attending multiple car shows and I hope to get out to the Trans Am nationals and others. Maybe I'll see some of you out and about.

If anyone here is interested in an artwork, don't hesitate to contact me. I would be glad to make one for you.

Later,
bill

Well, I just got back from an all F*rd car show in my home town. I got a great response from the public. Got a few orders! It was snowing all day on Saturday and it really put the hurt on the attendance. We have another show coming up in March!

Im not much of a F*rd fan but there were some sweet Roush, Saleen and '03 Mach 1 stangs there.

Later,
bill

Sounds awsome. When you have them ready you can email me and we can go from there. Make sure the pictures are at least 800x600 preferably bigger.

I have another show coming up in March in Huntingburgh Indiana. Can't wait to attend.

Later,
bill
