Photo help

ELLA

Ive recently ordered a fantasy photo from this site

http://www.enhance-me.com/

I would love to do these kind of photos myself without having to spend £13.99 each time.

I was wondering if there was any kind of software I could buy, I understand this site needs to make there money and needs custom but its all about moneysaving in the end for me.

Thanks vey much if anyone reads this.

You would need to use layers, The professionals would use Photoshop, but you can achieve the same effect with The Gimp
with a bit of practice

A tutorial can be found here, though this is a basic lesson

bookduck

obvious is photoshop + practice/experience

Faceonbody and corel knockout for the inept - like myself

another tutorial site for PS, but the method is similar for most programs. ie gimp etc..
after a few days practice you should be able to make a half decent photo.
or months in my case!

I do photomanipulations and use photoshop.
A good free alternative is The Gimp though.
