# Rarr!!


What I did was I thought of shopping the face of Chewbacca onto a picture posted on /board of a terrier buckled into a baby seat. I opened my browser and typed in ‘Chewbacca’ after 5 pages I realized that I was not going to be able to find a picture of Chewbacca’s face at just the right angle. So I gave up searching for that particular image and grabbed one of Chewbacca on the ice planet Hoth where he looks rather windswept and cold.



I then thought it would be patronizing, as this is a majority UK visited board, to then look for a recent image of London in the snow and ‘shop’ chewy onto it. So, I ‘googled’ for ‘London Snow’ and came across a site with the following picture;



I then set the feather tool to a threshold of 15 and selected the white area around Chewy. I then went to Menu- Select - Inverse and copied the Chewbacca image to my clipboard. I opened up the stolen image 'telephone_box_snow_02.jpg'and pasted the clipboard onto the .jpg. Again I selected the magic wand (Thanks Pas) tool, clicked outside the wookie and then went to Menu- Select - Inverse. I hit the delete key three times to chip away at the edge. Hit deselect. Selected the 'phone box' layer and navigated to Menu- Filter - Blur - Gaussian Blur and set it to .05.

File - Save for Web and set the quality to 92, giving me a file size of 69.62, which really is taking the piss as far as optimization is concerned, and uploaded via the b3ta image hosting.

Enjoy!

# Well personally I quite like the Catnipp tutorials
... and think they come across as interesting and informative.

But then, it's impossible to patronise me as I'm better than everyone else, so I don't worry about things like that.

# Brilliant sir.
We'll see how much b3ta like a tutorial when I've finished my current work. It's over 500 layers right now and a good 30 hours of work.
I'm sure a 5 page essay on how it was made will be as appreciated in just the same manner as this is.

Even this pisstake contains useful stuff for the likes of me and Catnipp's explanation is like a revelation on the road to Domestos.
Thank you.
