Hi! I have never tried to use photoshop before. I downloaded a free trial because I’m trying to combine several photos for a craft project. I was surprised by how complicated the software is (for someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing!). Can someone please explain to me as simply as possible how I take photos from my computer and combine them into one? Thanks!

    Photoshop is the chosen tool for graphic designer, not for anybody.
    Your better off with another software.

    Here is the easiest way to place 2 pictures together in photoshop:

    -File – new
    -Image – Canvas size- (Then select the size you want you total layout)
    -then press ok.
    *** To re-size your image press (Ctrl+T) on a pc or (Option + T) on Mac or go to
    -Edit-Free Transform, then grab a corner and press the SHIFT key at the same time to make sure you re-size it proportionally.
    -In your Layer pallet select the “Create a new layer” button (the 2nd button on the bottom right. *If you don’t see your layer palette go to “Window” then select layers, or press F7 on your keyboard (if you have a pc)
    -Now you can import a new picture in this new layer if you go in
    -File – Place (then select image)
    * Note it is good to have 1 image on each layers, an make sure to select the right layer before you move your pictures around.

    There you have it, as easy as 1,2,3.. if you havnt figured it out, then you gonna either have hire someone or find another software.

    Good luck
