Hi all. I'm trying to make either a mosaic or a family tree.
I'm having trouble with many newbie things... here's the list:
1) i have to deal with images of various sizes. What do I need to do to be able to have everyone's head cut out in an exact circle such that I can move them all around and they are the same size? I tried using the marquee tool but it made a different circle each time, more of an ellipse (hence the name of the tool I suppose).
2) does anyone know where I can get a picture of a tree that I can attach everyone's head to? how do I use that as my background? is that the same as adding a layer and having it as the bottom layer? |

1 On the top toolbar when you have the rec/marquee tool selected is a box that says normal, change that to fixed aspic ratio to get a perfect circle, you can also enter a fixed size on the same toolbar to keep the circles all the same.
2 yes just drag your tree layer to the bottom on the layers palette, as for the tree pic try searching for family tree templates for photoshop (or something similar) they must be about. Wayne |
