Thank you very much
You could contact the person who added the art work?
Wasn’t that the cover art for the old Ghostbusters Board Game?

:whatever:
Yes.
It was some general Real Ghostbusters artwork from 1986.
That and the old TV tray. There was a cool pic somewhere where someone drew and colored a pic in the RGB style of this pic. It was awesome and no offense to the person, I remember the argument where someone actually thought Winston was the one with the Ecto Goggles and Ray had the sunglasses. It was colored this way 
The guy with the goggles has reddish hair ala Ray and the guy driving has black hair like Winston.
It was also in the very first issue of the Now RGB comic (Vol.1 No.1) as the center poster. After that, most of the time the poster was just a larger version of the cover art.
You are right.
That is probably where it originated.

I made the above (first post) image in photoshop, which you’d find out if you read the description above the art:
"made this wallpaper using a combination of a semi-low res image of the entire RGB artwork I found online, and a higher-res scan of the Real Ghostbusters stickerbook (just the Ghostbusters on/in the Ecto 1) - the flickr site where I originally posted it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/m1a9366b/369473392/
I didnt draw the art myself obviously, but it is one of the most famous pieces of Ghostbusters art ever, I’ve been trying to find a good clean high quality scan of it for several years, but havent yet…
*This is the biggest one I have:
[EDIT] Here’s the other version I had [but couldn’t get to upload the other night]:
*Cheers.
Cool stuff as always Ectofiend! Hopefully that stuff puts to rest the “Driver is Ray, Winston has Ecto Goggles” :walterpeck:
Biggest digital copy I have:
It’s actually bigger than displayed, it’s just resized by the forum.
nice posts - but still kind of blurry - im debating on whether to buy the poster of the artwork (available on ebay and amazon I think) and putting together a really nice quality large graphic, by taking a photo of the whole poster, then scanning it in 4-6 parts (depending on the size of the poster) then matching the pieces and putting it all together in photoshop
I forgot, I did get a good scan of my diamond sticker book - but it doesnt have slimer or the cool background…
*Can you scan the rest of that stickerbook? I’ve been looking for that thing for ages 
…
*Cheers.
that was actually going to be a massive project for me at one time - the book is in excellent condition and it has no stickers in it… I was going to scan every page and set the whole thing up as a free downloadable pdf for people who cant find the book (even on ebay its pretty rare) - I was also going to scan the stickers that I have (probably half of the 100+ that make up the book)
I might still do it if I have some free time - if I do, i’ll post it on this website
