PHOTOSHOP CS6 INPUTTING IMAGES TUTORIALBy Jonah Townes

MY TUTORIAL

In this tutorial I will show how to input, move and edit images within Photoshop CS6.

STEP 1

Start by opening photo shop and selecting an image. Here I’ve selected a photo of Kid Buu from the Dragon Ball Z series.

STEP 2

After you have done this it is best to then create a new layer. This is so that you can import and change a new image without a problem.

STEP 3

The next step is to input a new image onto the new layer and position it were you want. I found that dragging an image from the desktop was easiest. The image I selected to input is of Goku super sayain 3 from the Dragon Ball Z series.

STEP 4

You may want to Do some editing if it is needed or wanted for the final product. Here I used the eraser tool to erase part of Kid Buu to make it seem as if the other figure, Goku, has his hand around Kid Buu. After this you can add a new layer for more images.

STEP 5

I decided to put in a background and finish this photo. The magic is though that really you could continue to add many images as many as you like really. Here I’ve chosen to put in an animated earth as the background.

AN EXAMPLE

This is an example of how many images you can input in one as each figure is a different image. As well as this the image here isn’t even complete.

HELPFUL TIPS

If you select an image that you only want one part of you can edit the rest out. For instance in this pic I only want the large blue energy ball.

QUICK SELECT TOOL

When using photos I found the quick select tool very useful as you can easily get rid of what you don’t want. Its quite easy actually all you have to do is select the quick select tool from the tool bar. After this you click and drag it over what you want to stay NOTE: this may not work with some images where the colours or shades are the same as what you don’t want and in that case might need tweaking. Once you’ve selected what you want right click on what you don’t want and click select inverse. Once you have done this you can erase what is not wanted without getting rid of anything you do want.

AFTER ERASING

This is the same image after the previous steps.

ANOTHER EXAMPLE

At a first look you don’t really notice much, out of ordinary, about this picture. When there's actually another image on top of the other.

MOVE TOOL

I found the move tool very useful for well moving things. Simply select the layer of the image or if its not in a different layer use the quick select tool to select it. Once you’ve done this select the move tool and move the image you want.

THE END

In this tutorial I’ve show the main points of inputting and editing multiple images. Thank you for watching.
