2. ENTERING TEXT
With the title of
my CD cover I
got the font off
the website
‘dafont.com’
and copied and
pasted it onto
Photoshop and
used the
Transform tool if
you go in ‘edit’
then ‘Free
Transform’ and I
made it bigger.
3. ADDING A GRID
I put this grid on my photoshop
page by clicking on ‘view’ then
‘show’ and then ‘grid’ so that I
can keep everything in line.
4. MAKING A PICTURE BIGGER
With making the
picture bigger I clicked
on ‘edit’ and then
went down to ‘free
transform’ with this I
can drag the corner of
the image and change
the size of it.

Tool’ on the left hand
side and at the top
there is a tool so you

done to the top of my
models head.
7. GETTING RID OF A BACKGROUND OF A
PICTURE
Here I have got a Masthead
and I want to get rid of the
white background to fit into
the grey background. I firstly
make sure I’m on the layer
of that image and then
click on the ‘Magic Wand
Tool’ and click on the white
background with it. Once it
is selected you press
‘Delete’ on your keyboard
and it should erase. You
then go on ‘Select’ and
then down to ‘Deselect’ to
get rid of the highlighted
area.
