Overview Process Feature List

Every image has been prepared with three goals in mind: easy wrapping of your artwork, easy image customization, and high quality results.

Vanishing Point planes and layer masks:
  • Photoshop CS2/CS3 Vanishing Point planes embedded in every image file (planes require Photoshop CS2/CS3)
  • Material layer mask for quick overall color fills
  • Layer masks with perspective (using transform tool) supported in Photoshop 7, CS, CS2 and CS3
  • Layer groups with layer masks
  • Layer masks include transparency for semi-transparent surfaces

Completely editable layered images:
  • Customize background color or add texture
  • Set background color to transparent for export and use in Adobe Illustrator
  • Turn shadow on or off
  • Customize overall object material color or texture
  • Modify layer transparency settings to simulate opaque or transparent inks
  • Stack artwork layers inside each face's layer group to visualize various treatments
  • Completely hide the object surface to isolate the graphics

High quality photography:
  • Photographed surfaces for true texturing and shadow
  • All images shot as RAW files and saved as lossless TIF format
  • All images are 300 pixels/inch (118 pixels/cm.)
