That sounds great. I will make it when it reaches "mature" state. I hope that ecomodder members will help to catch most of the bugs.

Thanks for your work with this seifrob, I am going to take a few pics tomorrow and try it.
Maybe see why my car has a high cd and if there is a tweak I can add..

aspect ratio bug fixed (at least I hope so..).

As for template, i can't see any distortion at all

Please, help me improve this tool. If you encounter an error, PM me together with what you did and what files you used. This will help me understand where the problem is.

EDIT: template rotated to have level "ground", info button shows current aspect ratio and original aspect ratio of your image, so you can see if it is distorted and how much.

thus version renumbered to 0.2 :-)

drag the overlay to the bottom of the window and you will see its not level

I rotated the template, but I haven't posted enough yet to share it. It needs to be rotated clockwise 0.61°. If you need free software to do this, I suggest GIMP.

One more post should do it. Thank you.

Yeah, I try not to abuse the rules when I start to post somewhere. I tend to lurk a lot before posting anything, which reinforces the feeling that my first few posts should be something useful.

So here it is.

when ever i see this template i think wing(or airfoil) not car, but the physics they apply none the less.
