I entered this image in a Photoshop contest were you had to take a piece of art (painting, sculpture, etc.) and combine it with a modern image to create a new image where the art does not look out of place...Enjoy!

That is very kewl...I'm a photoshop user myself for av's and sig's on other sites...have you used imageready that is bundled with it?

I used ImageReady for animated gif's but then went to Macromedia (now Adobe) Flash which is easier to do animation with.

Awesome. I can't wait to get myself a photoshop program.

Thats amazing, and nicely done.

Wow great job! :thumbsup:

How did you do that? I have been trying to combine images for days. I wanted a photo of me and of my man to look like it was taken together but I can't .. Your brilliant cuz that's hard.

Well Ronnie'sHoney..you have to be pretty comfortable with a photo editing program. Plus there's a lot of other things to consider such as the source pictures; i.e. you want the light source to be coming from the same direction, free of blemishes (for the most part), etc. I have been doing it for quite some time...like putting my children in movies and such...if you send me a PM I can list the sites with tutorials and my site (which is in my profile) where you can see more of my work :)

Wow! That is amazing. Did you win the contest? I have Paint Shop Pro, and have combined one or two photos, but have a long way to go. I'd like to take some college courses too, but not sure where to start. Please continue to post more of your photos. Thanks for sharing.

Usually classes that teach this are in the graphic design major...Some even call the class Using Photoshop...Check with the college admissions and I am sure they can point you in the right direction. Also, there are many good tutorials on the internet! I myself wanted to write some...just don't have the time!! ;)

Greta photo. It is kind of natural looking too, like he was just there having a drink. Did you win?

here guys, this is a step by step tutorial that can be done in most versions of photoshop with i would say beginner skill and can be fully understood by intermediate users...

hope this helps some of you get started?

Thanks for the tutorials, I need stuff like that.

I have no idea how to do this. I don't have the software to do this. But I would love a picture of my husband and I together. I'm wondering if someone would be willing to take my picture and my husband's picture and somehow create one picture of us together. My husband would love it and boy oh boy would he be surprised!
