press okay This creates a a new document In the file menu go to filter-noise-add noise In the window that appears select gaussian amount 20 hit okay Repeat filter by hitting Command-F until you see no change in pixel density Go to filter-blur-guassian In the window that comes type 2 for the radius hit okay repeat with Command F Go to image-adjustments-levels In the window that appears bring the far left black arrow to the bottom of the left side of the black hill. Now bring the right arrow to the bottom of the right side of the black hill. This will increase your contrast.

Now select the square in the upper left hand corner of the toolbar (if there is another shape there, click and hold, then drag to the square). Now draw out a small square on your document. The square will have crawling lines. Crawling lines indicate an area that has been selected. Click and drag inside your square to move it. Now we are going top copy the square and paste it into a new document. With a portion of your image selected (crawling lines) hit: Command-C this will copy it Command-N this creates a new document Hit Okay (or return). Do not change anything in this window. The program automatically creates a document that is the same size as the last thing you copied. Command-V This will paste the image you copied into your new document

In Short Command-C Command-N Return Command-V Now go back to your original document and repeat the selection and copy process 2 more times using different areas of your original. You should have 3 new documents plus your original. Throw away your original Now we need to resize or copied documents. Go to image-image size Uncheck constrain proportions. Change the image size to 640 width by 480 height in pixels. Go to image-mode-rgb color This changes your document from black and white to color. Now we need to add some color. Go to image-adjustments-color balance Move the arrows in the dialog box, click the different tone balance selections. This tones your image much like toning a photograph. Make the color a subtle color. Resize and color the remaining 2 documents. If you wish to try a filter on one, now is the time. Now we are going to paste the documents together. Command A-this selects All (this works in Illustrator too.) Command-C Copies the document Now click on one of your other documents Command-V-This pastes the image that you just copied onto the new image that you just selected. Go to layers. If this dialog box is not open go to window-layers There should be to layers. Each layer will have a picture of its respective document. You will only see the document on top because the layer you have ;pasted obscures the original. Select the top layer in the layer dialog box. In the top of the layer dialog box is the word normal. This represents how the 2 images blend. Since it is set to normal the top image obscures the bottom image. Click on the word normal and drag to difference, try some of the others and see what you think. In the layers palette try changing the opacity (also at the top). Now double click on your top layer. Try moving the sliders at the bottom of the page. Don't bother with the left hand column, its for type. Now paste your third image onto the 2 layer document. When a document is in layers, it has all the original documents contained within it. If you click on a layer and add a filter it will only filter that selected layer. If you copy a layer it will only copy the selected layer. Keep this in mind as you work on your document.
