He should have masked the background off so your car was the only thing in \'manga\' style, and everything else was in focus, that would look ace!

Damn Rob, you beat me to it!
If I hadn\'t been out sticking sticky stuff on vans all day I would have done that!

Dan, photoshop is the easiest program in the world to use, after two years learning how it works! It can do quite literally everything, and hence it isn\'t exactly what you would call plug and play, I learn new stuff every time I use it!

It\'s worth learning though, \'cos you can do some coooool stuff with it. There are How To books available, or just trial and error, worked for me! I did the original artwork for my Rex graphics in photoshop, looked a little something like this:

As dandan says mate. Photoshop is fairly easy once you know how.

I am assuming you have a copy it really doesn\'t take long to learn the basics.

Try going through some of the photoshop tutorials on these sites... it\'s how I learnt..
