1. When Photoshop is opened,
the first thing to do is to find
the word “File” at the top of the
computer screen and when
highlighted then click on “New”.
A box will then appear. The
Document Type must be
International Paper, if the
Document Type does not say
International Paper but
something else it can be
changed by clicking a visible
arrow facing downwards which
then shows the different
Document Types available. It is
at this moment when you click
on International Paper, when
this is done click OK.
3. To rotate the “background” go
to the top of Photoshop to
“Image” find “Image Rotation”
and click either “90 degrees
Clockwise” or “90 degrees
Counter Clockwise”.
4. After clicking “90 degrees
Clockwise” or “90 degrees
Counter Clockwise” the
background should look like
this.
5. To get the image that is going to
be used for my first Fashion
Spread for “Teen Rulez!” go to
the top of the screen (shown in
the previous slideshow) and
find the word “File” and when
highlighted then click on
“Open”. After this find the
image and open it. It should
then should appear in a new
tab in Photoshop.
6. To get the image onto the
Fashion Spread 1 tab highlight
the whole image from
whichever corner using the
Rectangular Marquee Tool
(which can be seen highlighted)
with the left side of the mouse.
When this is done go to the top
of the page, find the word
“Edit” and when highlighted
then click on “Copy”.
7. When back on the Fashion
Spread 1 tab go to the top of
the screen, find the word “Edit”
and when highlighted click on
“Paste”. After this the image
copied should appear on the
screen.
8. To make the image bigger
without spreading it start by
going to the top of the screen
finding the word “Edit” and
when highlighted click on “Free
Transform”. After this the image
would look like this. Make sure
that the image layer (Layer 1) is
highlighted.
9. The next step in making the
image bigger without spreading
it to move the image when
highlighted after clicking “Free
Transform” to the top left
corner, when this is done hold
and drag the bottom right
corner of the image using the
left side of the mouse and hold
the “Shift” button on the
keyboard to the bottom of the
page. After this the image
would look like this.
10. Click the “Enter” key to make
the whole image visible and to
confirm the changes to the
image.

a Black outline.

Headline make sure the
“Crampton In Da’ House!!!”
layer is highlighted and go to
the top of the screen, find the
word “Layer” find the words
“Layer Style” and click either
“Drop Shadow” or “Stroke”.
14. When “Stroke” is clicked change
the position to “Outside”, this
will be where the outline will
be. I also changed the size of
the outline from 1 px to 30 px
and I make the colour of the
outline Black. Once this is done
click OK, the Layer Style box will
then disappear and will be
returned to the Fashion Spread
1 tab in Photoshop.

then disappear and will be
returned to the Fashion Spread
1 tab in Photoshop.
