CUZ I CAN (and trying to learn new camera!!)

[Ember Faye]

That picture turned out good Ember. I have played with Photoshop a lot....get fustrated...and say fuck it. But slowly but surely I am learning the in's and out's.

ya know...i was gonna give a step by step...but...it's just one of those things that its easier if you have something to watch or have an actual book (which Lee, there are books out there you can get on it) or have someone show you in person

me being the stubborn bitch i am, i got really frustrated and wouldn't give up until i figured out what i was trying to do

another i did:

Butterfly

and another:

Butterfly II

and one more:

Ember in a Flower

[turboguy]

Nope...still have the sore throat.......


Streap throat is going around.....I have never had it, but I have never had a sore throat longer then 2 days either....and I have had this one for going on 7 now.....so looking like I got it.

If it isn't gone by Wednesday I think I will go to the doctor and get some meds.


T

I think I will do the step by step on this thread......see If I can explain it where it is understandable.

Well Ember, the big difference between the two of us-well, let me make one difference, is that while I'm stubborn too, I'm also impatient-I don't read directions for one thing although I would read 'em here if T puts 'em on. Did you finish indexing Dawn's thread yet

Nice butterflies by the way

Well, the Captain is going to working on some other stuff What, do I have to keep on an eye on the thread on comment or take a quiz on each one or is it something I'm allowed to look at later

Okay Lee, Here we go.......Hope this makes since to ya!!


Step one...


Open both pictures you want to use in photoshop.

(easy huh!?!)

 

[turboguy]

Step two......

select the picture you want as your "ghost" image or clone image....

Now select the "magnetic lasso" from your tools

 

[turboguy]

step three.....


Useing the lasso tool.......draw around the image that you want to cut out and use.

 

[turboguy]

step four......


once you have it drawn around......right click and you will get options that drop down......

Select "layer via cut"

 

[turboguy]

step five.....


Once you do the layer via cut....you will notice in the layer box...you now have two layers....the original pix....and then a layer with just the head.

In the layer box.......next to the original image.....uncheck the eyeball (there is a green circle and "x" to show you were)....this will then leave you with just the "head" layer on the screen

 

[turboguy]

step six........


right click on the head image......and select "duplicate layer"

 

[bearlee]

Okay Lee, Here we go.......Hope this makes since to ya!!


Step one...


Open both pictures you want to use in photoshop.

(easy huh!?!)

Hey, I'm paying attention-I think mine always end up on top of each other but no problem-just gotta find that magnetic lasso

 

[turboguy]

step seven......

Once you hit "duplicate layer".......

you will get a box.....asking for a "destination"........

In the destination box....you want to put the name of the first picture in there........the name of the picture you want to add the "head" too.....

 

[turboguy]

step eight.....


once you do the duplicate layer.....the "head" will copy over to the other picture......you can now totally close out of the "head pix"

 

[turboguy]

step 9.....


Select the "move" tool from the tool box.


Once that is selected.....you can drag the "head" to where ever you want it.


****make sure in the "layer box" that the head is highlighted (shown in pix 10......)*****

 

[turboguy]

step ten......



Once you move it.........you can change the opacticy of the head to blend it into the other pix......


make sure the Head layer is highlighted.......same as in number 9 above...

 

[turboguy]

step 11......


you can lower the opacticy to fit your desire.........


And done!!!!


Any questions.....just hollar!!

Lee, if they end up on top of each other....you can left click the grey boarder on the top of each pic and drag them around so they are both visible.

The magnetic lasso is on the left side of the screen in the toolbox ....I circled it in green in the pix for ya so you can find it a little easier.
