Second Tut

Well, my first tutorial wasn't very opular so here I am doing another one. I use this community so much I feel guilty not giving back. Sorry that the quality of the pics is terrible but photobucket hates me. Today, learn to make this: Image hosted by Photobucket.com on PSP 8



1. Crop your image. If your image is in color, I would reccommend making it Black and white.
2. Duplicate the layers twice
3. Set the first layer to Duplicate at 52% Opacity
4. Set the second duplicated layer to Screen at 44% Opacity
5. Merge:

9. Merge

11. Set to Lighten at 62% Opacity
