Question
I have a background and i've dragged another image into my frame how can i
blend it with the background in illustrator cs3?

Answer
Hi Chris,

Blend an image with a background?

I suppose you can change its opacity in the transparency window - that's about it. You can add a outer glow or drop shadow, too (effects).

If you're trying to create really fancy blends or integrate two imported images, you should probably be using PhotoShop instead.

Hope this helps

Expertise

I can help troubleshoot your Illustrator 9 through CS3 (and most CS4) problems and suggest the best way to get the results you need. Although I can help with some installation issues, my forte is prepress and how to use the tools and functions in the application itself.

Experience

I've been a graphic artist for over 20 years. Oh my God, 20 years.
