Default Help! Photoshop Skills required ASAP!!

Hi guys,

I am currently constructing my website and need some help..

I have a template which has a picture of some buildings across the top which looks great although it is nothing to do with my business so Id like to change it. I have tried to create an image of the same size but it looks quite un professional:



Its too blocky and does not flow at all well. If anyone has any suggestions to improve this and make it merge togehther slightly better with a few cool effects that would be great. I also need to keep the size it is now.

Just for reference the picture I have now is this:


Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Luke

Hi Luke

Blend the images together using layer masks. Rather than me try to explain, here's a nice tutorial you can take a look at http://www.photoshopessentials.com/p...s/photo-blend/

mormally I'd do this for you Luke absolutely no problem but I've got tonnes of work on and I'm really struggling to keep up with all today. I've been up well over 28 hours now and it's looking like I'll be up for a least another eight . I'd juist sat down for my first cuppa in 14 hours when I saw your post...

I'd suggest just having the one vehicle and maybe a motion-blurred scene. Headers are best kept simple.

I would also suggest to have an image with one vehicle instead of having too many vehicles. I think that would look better because of its simplicity... But it's still up to you.
