Default zoner-style blend- next step (long) - 02-06-2003, 05:04 PM

i just got ps7 and i read magum's sticky about blending, i have it to the point where Spiers is the only one in the pic (the background is white). Then magum jumped to putting the parachute picture behind it, that is what i can't figure out. How yould i add, say, a blurred background of th beach invasion from SPR?

Also, does anyone know why lense flare and lighting effects (under filter), only work with certain pictures? I am working on a pic with a bunch of soldiers against a busted wall, i want to make the sun shining through, nut i cant do a lense flare-- why?

for the lese flare you need to have it on the backgroud to show up, if you put it on a layer in the foreground it would only shine on the transparent part. thus making it invisible. and the layer part i dont want to habve to explain because im going to bed now. biggrin:

Lens flares and other filters will only work on RBG pics (i.e. jpgs). They will not work with indexed color (i.e 256 colour gifs).

Maybe the pic you're trying to add the lens flare to is only using 256 colours instead of the 16 million colour palette that jpgs use.

To add something behind that, all you need to do is copy and paste the new picture into the sig. Once it is there, you can resize/edit it all you want. Then, go over to the layers sidebar, and drag the background layer lower then the primary image. I hope that makes sense.
