Photoshop help!

[MachNU]

I jsut got photoshop and am trying to learn this, i ahve learned a few things but i am really looking at how to put two pictures together but i cant figure it out. Does anyone know of a webstie that gives good guides on how to learn this and walk throughs and such. This si about the most advanced thing i have been able to create, but i am really looking at how you remove things from pictures like back ground things, how to brighten things up and sharpen thingsm and even change the paint colors on things.

Thanks

good job asshat, but i have already been through there. I was asking the question to see if anyone found like a photoshop forum or something, just something along the lines that you would not find through a direct IP address.

Good job though!

Try using the lasso tool or the magic wand to cutout the outline of what you're trying to take out.
Then press ctrl+c to copy and create a new image with a blank canvas and size the resolution according to your image.
Press ctrl+v to paste on blank canvas and use the eraser to clean up the edges.
Go to edit < transform < scale.
Hold down shift to keep the proportions of your image and use your mouse to resize.
Save the image and store it in a folder.
Open up the background image you want to put it on and open up the cutout image you just saved.
On the cutout image, use the magic wand on the white background and then go to select < inverse.
While it's selected, press ctrl+c and click on the background image and press ctrl+v.
It should just appear on the background image layer and you might wanna use a little gaussian blur and slight lighting effects to make it look flush with the background image.
Use the move tool to move it to wherever you wanna put it.

Hope this helps.
