Thank you all so much!! I really appreciate each of your kind comments!!! #4500150Michelle B. Prince July 18, 2007
AWESOME in every way. is there a tutorial somewhere about how to do that kind of blend?? I just love the effect with that shot. #4523101Julie Abston July 18, 2007
Thank you Michelle! You can do a search for photoshop textures. There are a lot out there. Or just use your own textured image. Once you find one, layer it onto your image. Then change the blend of the texture to multiply, overlay, etc. Just play around with the blend and the opacity. You can also use the eraser tool to remove from faces/skin, etc. Hope this helps. Email me if you want more info! #4524926Wanda Knoss July 20, 2007
