I'm currently redoing my website and I need help with my banner.What I need help with is the picture below.I need in a width of 1024 and I have no idea how to extend the front of the picture without making it look funny.All I need is the part in front of the cars extended so I can add text.If anyone can do it for me I would appreciate it.Thanks.

That's exactly what I needed.Thanks.Any chance you can tell me how you didi it?

made a new pic that was 1024x245. cut and pasted your pic on to it, Then selected from the front of the car to the edge of the pic. Pressed ctrl+t and dragged the right side to the end of the pic.

Thanks a lot.
