Thanks. I CAN'T believe that I was SO STUPID to overlook things with the word "Jack" in them!!! I don't know what's wrong with me!!!

Anyways, I liked your jack. What I was trying to go for with the original logo was the concept of bluejacking itself. We Bluejackers (represented by the flipped Bluetooth logo, the "Rogue Bluetooth"), are "breaking in" to someone else's device to send them an unwelcome, or at least an unexpected message. (I know that we don't actually access their phone, at least not as much as when we pair two phones)

The Rogue Bluetooth has split the original logo in half, which in essence, is like when the Bluejacker's bluejack a victim. That was my idea behind the message, but I do like the other two logo's I made, and I really like the one you made, MixiN. No offense, but it does look more like a banner, than a logo. Actually, it could be the Logo Banner for an official Bluejacking site. Good work there!

Say, I needed some help designing another Bluejacking theme, this time for my wife. (Any Photoshop buffs, please respond!!!)

She wanted a "Bluejack Rabbit" theme, so I browsed the net for pictures of Jackrabbits (pictures, not illustrations). Well I found 3 nice pictures (and one of a Jackalope, ha ha ha).

I need help figuring out how to give the rabbits' fur a blueish tint, but not looking eeire at the same time (if you can look at a blue jack rabbit and not think that looks odd).

I tried the color saturation trick, but that gave the poor rabbit a freaky rainbow colored appearance.

I also tried making two layers, one had the original picture with the grass and the rabbit, and on the other layer, I erased the the grass around the rabbit. With the picture of just the rabbit, I added a blue color layer, then decreased the opacity of the blue until the rabbit had a slight blue tint.

I place the blue rabbit over the normal rabbit. The only problem is that the rabbit has shadows on it's body, and the blue color layer makes the shadows look REALLY weird. Anyways, I guess what I'm asking is, is there some way to put a filter over JUST the rabbit, so that it gets a NATURAL appearance (as natural as a blue rabbit can get)?

Thanks!!!

selecy the rabbit with the "magic wand tool" (shortkey W) then go to Image -> Adjustements -> Hue and saturation or to be quick hit CTRL+U, check the colorize box and go ahead

Colour replacer tool? Paint Shop Pro has one so I assume Photoshop does too?

Replace the shadows with a darker blue than you replace the lighter areas with.

Wow, that's a nice theme also! I am a little depressed about all of these themes being better, but the thing which cheers me up is that I created the first bluejacking logo! Ha ha ha!!!

Eh, that's a nice logo, however, there is one problem. The logo is not a true logo. From reading the forum, the picture is actually for a t-shirt design. It's not a real logo. Oh, and the other two pics are not "Bluejacking Logos". They are for the website, cause you can see that in the design, there is a "Q". It's a "BluejackQ" Logo, not a bluejacking logo. So again I say, I made the first Bluejacking logo!!!

Yeah, that looks nice. Sides, I inverted the original logo, cause we're not exactly using the bluetooth as it was meant (sort of, but I bet no one ever expected us to be bluejacking when they invented bluetooth). Nice work!
