Blending Pictures

Tutorial for: Adobe Photoshop 7+
Tutorial By: playing with dynamite

This is a basic blending tutorial. I used Photoshop CS for this; if you dont have it, I apologize....Adobe Photoshop 7 will do.
Step 1: Open up your images. Place them together into one document, of your size.
Step 2: Place your images where you want them. This is what I did:
Posted Image
Step 3: Put a Layer Mask on your top image. (Layer>Add Layer Mask>Reveal All)
Step 4: Make your gradient
Posted Image
white to black
Step 5: Use the gradient on the layer mask. When you put black on a layer mask, that part goes transparent. To blend in the edges, draw a gradient from the inside of the image to the outside, Posted Image
Step 6. Keep going with that and you'll end up with something like Posted Image
Step 7. Even with this, it might not seem blended. So get the lasso tool (in the portable toolbar thing), set the feather to 30 px (in the top bar), and draw a shape around the image like this:
Posted Image
Step 8. Delele that. That should look blended by now.
Finished Product

Open the images you want, and then push CTRL+A or take the selection tool and go over it all, and push CTRL+C [copy or cut whatever], and then just paste it into the new one.
