[QUOTE=TCP1]Hi, To the guys who use photoshop I need to ask a question. How do you add a border to the pic? Also, is there a way to move the cut from one background to another? Any help would be appreciated.[/QUOTE] Ok, the way to add a border (In Photoshop CS at least, don't remember previous versions) is to right click on the tool that's normally the rectangle and select line tool, and then you have to make sure it's on fill pixels rather than shape layers. And a way to move a cut from one BG to another is once you cut it to save it as a PSD, or you could just have both BGs open and copy it to each one. Hope I helped enough.

Border 2 possibilities: [U]Option 1:[/U] A) Make new layer (Shift+CTRL+N) and put it on top B) Rectangular Marquee Tool (M) -> Select All (drag mouse from upper left corner to under right corner C) Select > Modify > Border > 1px D) Edit > Fill > Color = Black Disadvantage: You'll have 1px Black + 1px Black at 50% opacity (thus a 2 pixel border, if you don't want that: see option 2) [U]Option 2:[/U] A) Make new layer (Shift+CTRL+N) and put on top B) set your color to Black C) Pencil Tool (1px) D) draw the border :) [U]For the background thing:[/U] A) Assuming you have this now: Layer 1: kyky | Layer 2: Wrestler | Layer 3: Border B) Open the other background in photoshop C) Select it all with rectangular marquee D) CTRL+C E) go back to your wrestler pic file (or whatever u call that :p) F) CTRL+V and drag the layer under the wrestler layer G) click on the "eye" next to the one you don't want to see (see my screenshot) The best is to keep all backgrounds and all wrestlers in the same file, that way you don't always have to remake the border and can you easily switch backgrounds when you like.

There's an even easier way to make a border, which guarantees you won't screw it up to boot. -Create a new layer, and make it the top one. -On that layer, do a Select All (Ctrl+A). -Go to Edit at the top of the window, then click on Stroke. -Choose 1 px, with the colour black. Click OK. You can do the whole thing in under five seconds flat, and it basically does all the work for you as far as placing the border. Just make sure you don't put any new layers on top of that one.
