how do i know if when i resize a blueprint it is the right size? how do i know when it is a 1 pixel to 1 inch scale?

the way i do it.

draw a line, the line being the length of the car in 1px = 1 inch. you can draw more lines for the FV/RV width too. just like the "ground" on a base or tune

go to the blueprint, remove as much JPEG fuzz as you can, then resize the print (i usually resize from the SV) to the lines you drew on the document. then adjust so it all looks good.

oookay, so i find out how many inches the car is then draw that amount of pixels in a line?

I just copy each blueprint view in its own image. Then i crop all the surrounding white exactly on the blueprints size. Then i open in on gimp or PS and i just resize the image putting the values of the size of the car in inches.
