Bob Art3D?????

[fastolds]

I tried the demo Bob art that was in with the last update. I scanned in an image of my car to see how it did with a picture. It came out blotchy and not the full outline of my car. Is this suppose to happen and can this be fixed? I am considering buying this if it works.

Was it a high quaility scan?

It was scanned off of a 35mm picture using an lexmark X75 all in one. I thought the picture looked good. My car is black with a background.

What dpi were you using? The higher the better, "sometimes". What color was the Background and how clean is the scanner bed? These things can all affect the outcome of the BobART system. When the picture was scanned did you verify the quality before opening it in BobART, to make sure there weren't any imperfections?

I honestly don't know much about this software. I just came across it after I loaded in the update. I uploaded the picture then did the convert thing and thats when I saw the blotchy lines.

I'd like to see the picture file if possible...? I am sure this can be resolved it is just a matter of knowing what is going on with the picture...

Let me know how you want me to get the picture to you. I am really interested in what BobArt can do.
That other software looks cool but I am wondering how it would work in a chunk of aluminum.

BobArt functions by choosing darker colors for deeper cuts. You stated the picture of your car was on a dark background and a black car, this isn't going to function well due to the amount of dark colors in the picture.

Try editing the picture inside of BobCad through the Edit Image option Then invert the picture there. If this doesn't work well for you, try changing the red, green and blue to have more contrasting colors in the image.

See if this works for you.

I don't know how much I can do with the demo. I have been so busy I haven't had a chance to play with it or forward the picture I was using.
