The above link I provided you shows how to merge images, the tutorial is just using scenery as an example, it will work with all types of images.

Will this link work too....though that appears to use 2 pics that have trees in it, I would just like to put 2 photos even with different backgrounds together like professional magazines do.

Is this a good link too?

Looks good to me, If that method works best for you, go for it.

Hm trouble is, nothing seems to work at the moment I start on one...follow the instructions, but they never seem to work out the same? I lose what they are trying to say half way through

What I have done in the past with tutorials is write down the steps involved and read through them first. Hang in there and just take it slowly

Ok, I will try your way too...I did actually print that Michael's way off....maybe I am trying to hard...? Also found the below link, do you think that will help too?

At the moment I'm getting more error than anything else!

Nice tip Mate, never thought of using radial / transparent, I always have a 'hit and miss' with linear. (enjoy a rep for that sir)

Maybe this helps ?

Wow this is very helpful I'll see I can get it to work on a background that I'm doing for a good mate of mine!  XD
