Yes, thanks that worked. But I am curious because I have used it before and nothing was wrong with it. Oh well. thanks for your help, at least I know what was wrong.

Ok Step One. Open image to cut out. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step1.jpg Step Two. Cut out and erase unwanted area. Resize. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step2.jpg Step Three. Open other image. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step3.jpg Step Four. Resize and get correct canvas size for image. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step4.jpg Step Five. Insert first image. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step5.jpg Step Six. Blur images together so they look like one. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step6.jpg Step Seven. Add new layer and get a blur. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... /step7.jpg

yeah I resied them but it blurs after I resize them. I think it is just the actual images that I am using which is the problem. I will do a step by step screen capture to see if anyone can spot the problem.

yeah, the history only has 'open' because they are images that i have opened to show you what has happened, thats all. Unless you want me to do it all again completely to show you the history, then there is nothing I can do about that. All I know is, when I go to put text in it starts to blur that area and sometimes when I add a new layer, it blurs the whole image and sometimes all I have to do is save the image and it blurs and sharpening it only makes it worse. On the other hand, at the moment, it seems to be only with these images that it happens to. I made my signature today on it and it was fine with that.

yup http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... ublur1.jpg that was after I went to enter some text on a new layer and it went blurred. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... ublur2.jpg added a new layer and it blurred. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a252/ ... ublur3.jpg Did the sparkel bit and clicked glow and the image blurred. Im just testing out some other images to see if it does the same.

ok sorry, its only actually crashed once and thats the code that came up when it did. the blurring is a seperate thing all together. although I havent tried it with different images, so I dont know if it only blurs with this particular image or if its blurring with every image.

it crashes at different stages. I get really far on sometimes and get ready to save and it just goes blurry, other times I just have to add a second layer and it blurs.

Hi, I was making a signature for a forum today and once I had put my images on and got so far, I went to put another layer on, and the whole image went blurry. I clicked the undo button and the image stayed blurred. I tried several different options, even saving it before I put in a new layer, closing it then re opening it, but sometimes when I re open it, the image is still blurred. I included the crash file.

wow that was really fast haha Sounds easy enough. I will go and look for some plugins and stuff and see what I can come up with, thanks for the fast replies.

Is it capable of making images like these? I really want to learn how to make my own signatures for my forum but cant afford photoshop and came across this about a week ago. I love it and would like to get better at my graphics, hopefully as good as the images below so any help is greatly appreciated, even if its just to tell me I'm in the wrong place haha Thanks in advance.
