Default My first Combine Photoshop, WARNING ALL WITH SLOW INTERNET!!

Version No 1 has unfortunately been removed through a shameful mistake!

Hi there! This is my first effort to try and "combine" many images trying to make some of them transparent with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0! Please give me feedback and tips! Oh, abd don't be too harsh on me since it's my first try!

For the element of design, you should put less things in your picture. At the moment, it is a little "cluttered."

And it's optional, but a frame is always nice. It doesn't have to be fancy, even a simple one will do.

Overall, good job though! You'll get better with practice.



PS - What kind of airplane is that? It looks very cool in that picture.

Thanks! I'll make a new one with less things in it and a frame when I have time!

Yes way to cluttered.

Your sig looks great

Vesikko, only bad thing I found on that image, is that "Freiwillig zur Kriegsmarine" poster. Lose that and it´ll be a lot clearer!

Agreed. It's the main thing that's cluttering it at the moment.

I'd also try it without the blue elipse in the top center.

Thanks! I tried to change it but I have a HUGE problem! It says that the layer is locked! So I can't do any changes! Does anybody know how to "unlock" the layer(s)?

As I have a career of 4 years of flight and combat flightsimming I really should know, but personally I've never seen it before! Really sorry (and ashamed)!

Martin PBM Mariner! Absolutely! Thanks for the hint, I looked it up in The Encyclopedia of Aircraft! Here's a screenshot of it:

Notice you saved it and tried to edit a jpeg.
.JPEG does not support layers, only PSD does. Whenever i edit, create something in Photoshop i save it in both formats.
