^^Thanks! I'll check that out. I'm really up for any suggestions. so far the stencil is working okay .I'm trying my hardest to make these things look legit.

not a problem dude.. there are tons of tutorials of how to turn an image into something that can be stenciled... typically 2-3 layer stencils look the best as far as appearances go with not too much difficulty in making them.. you can use photoshop or i always used 'photofiltre' and you can use "duotone" to create it as a 2 layer image with black and white... stencilrevolution ahs some good tutorials then again you can always use the 'googler' and find some...

how did you not go with 'slap boards'? would it be legal to start a company called that? i call dibs if so
I;m sure i;m not the only dc/monster/subaru type guy here

or you could call it Message boards.  You wouldn't ever have a problem coming up with graphics.  Just use a use a screen shot of every thread.

not only a hilarious idea... you could find some really funny ass posts i'm sure.. but the legality of taking that off those message boards would be the trick.

Making a stencil is not hard. To make an image into black and white, convert it to a monochrome bitmap file in MS Paint. Then use the erase tool to make islands, etc.

Spray Paint
Stencils
Blank Boards From Ebay.

This is why we're all fucked.

But it's cool.

I'd go with the Message Boards idea. But only if you're a devout Christian... just think of all the possibilities.

hey man, to be honest, you're probably better off screen printing.

check out the screening section here

and if you need a cheap screen for a simple between the trucks logo, go down to hobby lobby. find a screen, peel the sticker off, and replace it with one that has a cheaper price. then all you need is a squeegee and ink, and thats not too pricey at all. p.s. - try to stay away from ebay blanks. i hear they are the shittiest that shit could be.

I rarely venture into classic slap and the one time I do it I find a guy getting his dick eaten by a dolphin.
