Adobe Photoshop/Overlapping images

Question
Hi Candice.

I am using a 'cut-down' version of Photoshop - 5.0 LE so it may not have all the most up-to-date facilities.

I want to create a photo-montage by overlapping several different images taken from different view points and perspectives.  I want to combine these to make a single jpeg image that can then be posted on the net.
Do you have any idea as to how this can be achieved?  I also have PaintShopPro 7 if this is any help.

Thanks

Ron


Answer
open the files
start a new file
move the files over to the new one.
move them around until you're happy.

notes: make sure that the layer isn't locked, or it may not move
activate your auto click option, which will be the top left button when you are using the arrow tool.

to make the images over lap in differnt ways, you can move the layers up and down on the layers tool bar, simply drag the layer under the layer you want the picture to be under.
