New Freebie

I have been messing around in Photoshop for a couple of days as I wanted to try and reproduce something similar to the photo masks that I have seen around. I have made these for you to try out. There are 4 portrait orientated and 4 landscape at 6"X4". They are grungy, some more so than others, but I am quite pleased with my effort. Think I might leave the creating to others more qualified than myself though,as they are quite time consuming to get right.


To use these masks in PS, open the mask and then place your 6"X4" photo over the top. Then, making sure your photo layer is selected, press CTRL+ALT+G (PSCS3) to clip the photo to the mask. You can also right-click on the photo layer and select "create clipping mask" which will have the same effect.

I have made a couple of examples to show you.

DO you know where I can find a tutorial on how to make these? I like what you have done. I have no idea how to start and love to learn how to do things for myself.

If you can help me out please let me know.
