Paul (aka HardcoreZ28 ) came by to watch the insanity - it was a good time. Doin this stuff is way more fun than anyone should have while they're getting paid

Looks good man. Since your website is for a business, you'll want someone to spellcheck the site for you. Not saying you can't, its just that after you look at the same thing over and over, the eye stops picking up things.
Hope you and Paul can pull together and have a good, profitable relationship.

I looked at the Cadillac job - love the flames. Very crisp. Not sure I agree with the color combo of blue flames and pale yellow / parchment base color though. Should have talked the customer into a basecoat of black.  Just my opinion of course.

Flames on white are TOUGH! Its something you dont see in nature, so I had to make it up as i went... dark colors will always turn out better :\

flash isnt as tough to crack as you might think... grab a trial copy and mess around w/ it - you can do some cool stuff with only a little work.

I guess I have to get a better look at em - but as far as color choice and layout, they look pretty good.
