stupid question

[jazzfisher]

Hi all,
I'm trying to do th"wedding"tutorial video. of course on the very first thing he doesn't explain how it got there--How do make the white background layer and it's below the photo??
I'm determined to get this layers thing
Thanks in advance.

1) Open up your wedding photo or similar disasterous event, that will be the background layer.
2) Duplicate this layer by either dragging the layer onto the 'Create a new layer' icon or by pressing Ctrl J (on the pc).
3) Make sure your foreground colour is white, press D for the default colours then press X to swap the black and white over if it isn't already.
4) Select your background layer.
5) Press Alt & Backspace (on the pc) to fill the background layer with white.
6) Take two aspirin and call me in the morning.

Thank you--YOu guys get up earlier than I do onthis side of the earth...
Thanks Syder will follow instructions. And it's not really a wedding photo (thank god), I just wanted to learn the technique.
:shock:

Thanks Spyder, you got me to the starting point--now I will try to follow the video and see if I can master the rest of it. :roll:
I'll let you how I get on.

We most definately missed you, but I think we muddled through fairly well.

Other than the new games Jodi came up with, there aren't too many outstanding issues :wink:

Hi ..

I don't think that I am going to be able to go back through all the messages so if anyone needs an answer it may be better to repost. Just glad you managed OK without me ... does this mean that I can go on holiday again??????

:) :) :)

And leave your "cut n paste" list for FAQ's. :D

Yes, you may go on Holiday again. If you'll come to Nebraska!!
(And when does the world tour by RV start again?) :lol:

[Wendy]

Kerri,

I think that Mike is in charge of the world tour :) ... but not quite sure where the next stop is. Maybe Mike is checking out locations whilst he is on holiday :lol: :lol: :lol:
