2. Now you want to ‘color’ the pics.
3. Once your done ‘Coloring’ the Blend go to Image>Flatten Image.
4. Now go to Layer’s>Duplicate Layer. Then go to Colors>Desaturate, then click ‘Desaturate’
5. Now your image should’ve turned Gray.
6. Move the ‘Desaturated’ image to were it looks like this:

7. Go to Image>Flatten Image.
8. Now, Make a new Image. (File>New)
Make it about 600x400, that away you have enough space to work with.
Now match the rest of the setting’s with mine & click ‘Ok’
http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk261/GoingCrazy4NickJonas/Tutorials/tut2.jpg
9. Copy & Paste this ‘Mask’.
Clickkiee (http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk261/GoingCrazy4NickJonas/Tutorials/tut3.png?t=1243694752)
10. Now take your blend & Paste it onto the mask. Go to Dialogs>Layers.

13. Once your done with that go to Image>Merge Visible Layers & click ‘Merge’.
14. Now you can use textures (I’ll give a link to the textures, then I’ll put what mode they should be on)
Texture 1 (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/lights03_sanami276.png)-Lighten only
Texture 2 (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/rainbowswirl_white.png)-Darken only (Delete parts off her face)

Signature Tutorial #3
1. Go to File>New
Make your width and height depending on the size of the mask
I will be using this one>>
Clickiee (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/02.png)
(The mask is 492x391, so I’m going to make mine about 500x400)
2. Copy & Paste your mask.. Go to Dialogs>Layers. Right click on ’Floating Selection’ & click ’New Layer’ Then go Layer>Transparency>Color To Alpha
Make sure the color is set to White (ffffff) then click ‘Ok.’
Ok, so it didn’t make it transparent, so go to your ‘Layer’s’ window. Right click on the background layer & click ‘Delete Layer’. Now it should be Transparent.
3. Now find pics you want.. Copy and paste them on to your image (I’ll be using pics of Demi Lovato 1 (http://www.demipictures.com/displayimage.php?album=167&pos=1) 2 (http://www.demipictures.com/displayimage.php?album=167&pos=7) )
Once you pasted it go to Dialogs>Layers. Right Click on Floating Selection then click on New Layer
You can either erase the parts you don’t want, or you can set it on a mode.. I’m going to be setting my mode on Lighten Only to make it easier and not having to erase anything!
4. The 2nd pic is basically the same. Just set it on ‘Lighten Only’..Some of it may overlap the other pic, if so, just delete that part.
After all that go to Image>Merge Visible Layers. Click ‘Merge.’
5. Now for the coloring.

Go to Colors>Color Balance

Shadows
58
25
33

Midtones
48
30
39

Highlights
19
-3
-6

6. Now for the textures. (I’ll post the link, then the mode)
Texture 1 (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/lights02_sanami276.png)-Lighten Only
Texture 2 (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/lights03_sanami276.png)-Lighten Only
Texture 3 (http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc260/Anna4Banana/texture/rainbowswirl_white.png)-Darken Only (Delete parts you don't want)

After your done with the textures, go to Image>Merge visible layers. Click ‘Merge.’
7. Now, Add Text.
(Font Used: LT Chickenhawk)
Once your done with that go to Image>Merge visible layers. Click ‘Merge’
Go to Image>Autocrop Image.
