How can you layer an image over another one without changing the blending mode for the bottom layer to be visible?

I'm just going to participate and whatever happens, happens. ;|


Three 200-pixel images, in 3 windows. Open a 640-pixel new, blank canvas with BG the color you want border to be. Drag each image from its own window to the new canvas and drop it, then move it on that canvas to where you want it. That's the basic approach. 4 layers, 3 images and a BG.

You can place a smaller image over a larger one, with the bottom image showing around (not through) the lower image; here is an example from an earlier Triptych challenge. Allowing the bottom image to show through the upper image is what's not allowed under the (special for this challenge) Basic rules. If you place the images side-by-side there's definitely no problem ...

Just to clarify - that's an example of what NOT to do, right? :)

oh dear oh dear... Poor me who's not a heroine with PS.
I've read the whole topic and I'm still confused (even a bit more then at the beginning of the topic)
Anyway, we'll see. If mistakes are to be made, at least we will learn from them.

I have another question that I forgot to ask the SC: If you have 3 separate photos taken on three seperate days (because you were playing with lighting and aperature settings) - What do you put down in the submission fields for date taken and exposure settings??????? My guess is that one would put down the first date the photo was taken and perhaps write the other two in the comments.

All three are shot within the challenge time frame. So no problems there....unless you cannot have the triptych taken on separate days within the challenge time frame.

that would be fine. just choose one of the three days. if i use the ones i think i'm going to use, it covers at least two days.
