# Ding dong!
Mr. Camel is eyeing up your missus.



By the way, can anyone point me at a tutorial or give me a couple of good tips/which tools to use how to photoshop this sort of collagey type style?

# righto.
Not entirely sure what you mean by 'a few layers'. Care to explain a tiny bit more for someone who hasn't really used layers properly yet?

# in photoshop once you've made a feathered selection, copy and paste
and it will end up in a new layer
you can then move it around as you please

# Ah.
So just feather the edges and plonk stuff where I want it?

That's basically what I thought of doing, I just assumed there was a better way of sorting it out.

# I just assumed that
there would be something particularly cunning* about it that justified places charging stupid amounts of money to do it for your wedding photos.

But apparently not.


* i.e. that I couldn't do.

# it's a case of, just cause you don't know how to do it
we'll charge you the earth to do it for you
even though it's easy peasey :)

# I knew that as well.
I just assumed that it wouldn't be something I could look at and guess how to do it.

# are you looking at my bird?
outside now!

i'd grey scale it to start with and then if you indtend to colour it change it back to RGB, the greyscaling will even the image off.

# oh, you mean in that style, i thought you were doing a touch up of that original pic.

oh, then layers will ve your friend and an eraser with a large brush.

# Looks like
that collage is all layer masks. The ellipse is basically the same with a lot of feathering.
This might help.

# Ta muchly.
I'll have a look.

I shall try it with layer masking as I've not used that before.

# add each image you want to a new layer and move it to the desired position
then on each layer, add a layer mask
then click on the layer mask, use a selection tool such as the ellipse with the feathering set quite high
then draw on the layer mask using the selection tool

someone else will prolly explain this much better than me - sorry

edit: google search for photoshop layer masks. it has all that you need

# I'll give it a go.
My 'Photoshop for dummies' book is reasonable at explaining what to do but unfortunately you already have to know why you're trying to do it.

# layer masks is quite easy

Almost an hour in a hot suit with a polyester beard obstructing my mouth.

Good fun though (and brownie points!)
