How would you paint your Dreamliner?
Have you always thought it would be fun to come up with your own paint scheme for an aircraft? If so, then Boeing has just the thing for you …
The U.S. jetmaker has rolled out a page on its website where users can do just that.
The "Design Your Own Dreamliner" page is just what it sounds like, offering aviation enthusiasts a chance to come up with their own unique design for a Dreamliner (such as the ones shown here in this post).

Menus give options for numerous graphics, color and "paint" options. Several fonts are available for adding text to your aircraft design.
One person to have already experimented with the page is aviation blogger David Parker Brown of AirlinerReporter.com. He offers this advice for those thinking about taking a stab:
The key is to remember that you need to make the same design on both sides, otherwise your design doesn"t really work in the 360 view.
Those who complete a design can submit it to Boeing for approval.
