USING PSP8




Pictures are from New Atlantis. Since this is a guide, and you don't need the specific pics. Work with some of your own, since I'm sure not all you want to make a Rodney and Teyla header. :P

First, resize and crop your two pictures in separate trays. I then used Automatic Color Balance, Contrast Enhancement, and Saturation Enhancement under Adjust. I then copied both pictures into a new 650x450 document with the one where he's looking at her on the bottom.

Now, using the rectangular selection tool, select the area where they overlap. Make sure you select more where the picture covers her face in the one where he's looking at her. Then, go Selections>>Modify>>Feather, and set to 60. Press OK, then go Selections>>Modify>>Inside/Outside Feather set to 60 and both. Click OK, then hit the delete key. Your picture should have blended.

Next, Layers>>New Adjustment Layers>>Curves. In RGB, set it like this:

Input
179

Output
216

Put this layer at the top.

Layers>>New Raster Layer Flood Fill with #F6DCD2, set to Multiply and duplicate.

Create a new raster layer and flood fill with #13FF45, a bright green. Set to burn 12 opacity.

New layer flood filled with #A62806 set to Saturation (L) at 74 opacity.

Create 4 new vector layers. On the first, in about 26 point Tuer's Cardboard (available at dafont.com) font, type "A Light Shining through". Then, in point 8 font type "The Dawn is Breaking", "You're Barely Waking", and "I'm tangled up in you", all on different layers. Move around as you wish.

That's all! And no, I don't ship them... :P
