Hey guys,

I'm enrolled in an Advertising program and I have a Photoshop midterm due tomorrow. It's an assignment where we have to combine different pictures to make an advertisement that is a visual pun.

For mine, I'm doing a car ad on a billboard that says, "Size doesn't matter." I took pictures of two vehicles and cut them both out (after changing them to CMYK colour mode.) I did that with layer masks.

Now that I'm trying to move them into my main background picture's document, it's copying the layers over and linking the files, and it won't allow me to change the size of the layer masked vehicles. I even have "Show Transform Tools" checked off.

I guess I shouldn't say that it doesn't let me do it, but if I do change the size, it won't let me click anything else (layers, most of the toolbar options gray out and disappear, etc.) and it goes back to its original size when I look at another window.

Is there any way to change the size of the vehicles? I need to or else I'm screwed.

I'm using CS3 on a MacBook Pro, running OS X.

Well if you have the car files separately as jpgs why dont you just open them on a new file and resize the image. It's better then nothing.
