Okay when I first got this program I didn't know a thing about blending or even brushes so I decided to make a tut for the ppl who don't know how to blend on APE 5.0!

Okay to open up a 450x200 image go to File>New>Blank File
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y208/Bullymonster987/Tuts/tut_1-1-1.png

When your finished with that you will see a box kinda like this one, Then you
will set the width to 450pixles and the height to 200pixels, When you've done that press OK!

Then you will open the pics you want (2-3) to use by going to File>Open (I chose Nick Jonas)

After you've opened up your pictures drag 1 to you blank blend then move it to the
edge of the blend then do the same with the second pic but have it overlapping the first one!

You will select your "Polygonal Lasso Tool" to cut the picture overlapping the first
but cut around the outside parts of the body (DO NOT crop exactly on the body) Bring the
Tool to were you started for a little circle to appear, Then click the "Delete" button on your keyboard!

To cut around the body zoom in by clicking the "Zoom Tool" click your picture 1 time to zoom in,
Then use the same tool to cut along the body, And press the Delete button, And use the "Eraser Tool"
to to erase any visible parts!

Do the same if you use anymore pictures and if there is any white use the "Crop Tool" to get rid of that annoying white!

After you crop the image Merge the images together!
http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y208/Bullymonster987/Tuts/tut_1-9.png

When your done merging the pictures together add some Coloring, Brushes, Text, Textures,
and more then File>Save As to save your picture (You can save it as JPEG Format or PNG Format)

This is what I made:

If you don't know how to do coloring I use Disney1Rocks tut, You can click here (http://www.mymostwanted.com/forum/showthread.php?t=60844) to go to her tut!

I hope this helps, Just let me know if there is anything else you need help with!
