[Help with Image Skew / Quadrilateral Reshape]

Hi, I'm trying to skew an image of a poster to make the perspective consistent with where it will be located in a picture.  I'm trying to use the Quadrilateral Reshape tool.  I'm finding the image of the poster in the thumbnail the tool generates is very small (compared to the area you can manipulate) and often leads to the poster being cropped.  It seems its reshaping the whole layer and not just the image (see picture).

Any advice?

Thanks in advance

[How to blend two images side by side]

Hi All, 

 

I would like to place two images next to each other, side by side, and blend them together so the line between the two is a bit softer.  I found this example on Google (for PS unfortunately).  I've tried putting them into two layers and using a transparent gradient tool but it isn't really working for me.  Any advice appreciated!

Thanks
