Easy Background

okay…….FINALLY my next tutorial..here goes.

1) choose ANY photo. Make sure you like the colors in it, because that’s all you’ll see in the end result.

2) Go to your toolbar and click on “Single Row Marque Tool”

3) Then, click once anywhere on the photo…choose an area which has interesting colors or that you like the most.

4) Next, duplicate the layer.

5) Now that you have a separate layer, you will need the “Free Transform Tool” . This allows you to transform the layer easily.

Make sure the duplicated layer is selected when using this tool.

6) Now drag the layer all the way across the canvas.. You can go all the way or play around for a different look.

7) Once you’ve set it the way you like it, press ENTER.

And there you go…an easy background for basically anything. 

This can be done to any photo and each photo will come out different than the next!
