Click by click would take a while...a very long while...so tell you what. I'll give you topics to look up on other sites, and you can string the concepts together in the manner given in my tutorial. Look up the following with Google or another engine:

Blending modes
Gaussian Blur
Hue and Saturation
Levels
Polygonal Lasso tool

These are the most important concepts to learn in this tutorial. Edit>Fade is another important topic, but that's been covered both in this thread and in others.

This tutorial isn't really beginner material; it would have totally freaked me out if I'd been reading it a few years ago. I'd recommend starting out with simpler techniques until you're more comfortable with Photoshop. That way, you don't learn the techniques so quickly that they don't "stick."

Go Layer>Flatten, near the bottom of the menu. This will convert all layers into a single layer without changing the appearance. If you need to combine two layers into one, select Merge Down from the Layer menu.
