[QUOTE="Breakstone, post: 1903617, member: 481"] Here's one way to do it: You can use the old Parchment map that Wizards gives away here: [url]http://www.wizards.com/dnd/article.asp?x=dnd/mw/mw20020725x2001[/url] (just scroll down.) Then again, you can use any image you find online or make up yourself. Copy one of your images. Go into photoshop, and open a new document, then paste your image. It should automatically adjust the canvas size to fit your image. We'll use the first picture as an example: [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps1.jpg[/IMG] Create a new layer between the background and your image layer, and paste the parchment sheet into it: [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps2.jpg[/IMG] Then, select the layer with your picture, and adjust the bar where it says "normal." These different options decide how your layer interacts with the layers below it. Try choosing the option "Darken" : [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps3.jpg[/IMG] It should give you a result of something like this (be sure your top layer is selected!): [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps4.jpg[/IMG] Go ahead and play around with the other options. You can get a fun result, such as this: [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps5.jpg[/IMG] Also, playing around with the opacity of your layers simply adds to your options: [IMG]http://breakstone.freezope.org/ps6.jpg[/IMG] Have fun!
