Here is how to set up Floating Document Windows

In this Photo Manipulation video I use layers, layer mask, selections, refine edge, the cloud filter, burn/dodge and more.

This comprehensive video takes you step-by-step through the complete process from beginning images clear through to the final composite image. This training demo was recorded in Photoshop Elements 13 but the techniques used will work just as well in Photoshop Elements 11 through the latest Photoshop Elements.

    Hi, I am trying to follow your video and so far it's been going well except for the fact that no matter what I do I can't seem to be able to move the photo around within the screen.  I am even using the same photo that you're using and my rulers are on the picture…HELP!!!
    Please.

  12. William Walton says

  16. Bin Jie Mai says

  17. Brian Skovgaard Larsen says

    This was just perfect! Thanks a lot.

  18. Laura Piccoli says

    How do I get to where the picture is in the ruler frame? I bring in the picture and I have rulers checked but there is not a ruler and I can't move the picture.

  19. Chad Mcghee says

    hi i am sure this is going to be a really stupid question but how do you get that measuring tape effect on the left side of the pictures like that? i Cannot Figure it out. thanks.

  20. BeBoldByBella MUA says

    Hi George, I know this is a stupid question. I am a makeup artist who is getting into Pictures to show my work. I been doing a lot of your tutorial's, so I am like NEW, real new. I am using PS15. All my picture's, are clipped to the board when I open them in PS. I see you moving them around. How do I do that?

  21. 7th Orisha says

    Why not use Filter-other-Mininum/Maximum to get rid of the halo type disparity instead of just using the burn tool to paint it in?

  22. Victor Colon says

    Hi my friend. I have one photo that i want put it the background same like that. My Problem is i did that photo outside and i can not doing good selection between her hair and the background. Please can you help me?

  23. MrMoonpie001 says

    I reviewed this video to see how to remove the halo effect that I was having issues with. The burn tool at 50% works fine!

    Thanks George!

  24. Tom Loves you says

    Again fantastic job.

  25. Ken Davis says

    Great video! I'll have to rerun it several times before it completely sinks in, but this is one of those "wish I knew this before now" techniques. Thanks for another eye-opening lesson.

  26. Bell Family says

    One again. great video.!!!!!

  27. MrMoonpie001 says

    George, I went through this lesson about 4 times just to make sure I got all the pointers, now I am off to testing this out. What a great selection you made in record time using the lasso tool! The "halo effect" is a big problem using the refined tool, the back and forth on the picture or mask, is the best way to get great results. I had issues with the burn tool to start with because of the amount of strength I was using, once you tune it down, works great! Thanks again, this a simple concept but one that was very, very important! Your background idea is good for many reasons, I like the ability to be creative and control color. The right color combination is the difference between a so so photo and one that really pops or complements the subject. Wanted to know if you could do a walk through on shappening photos, the correct balance here is the problem area again. That is, between sharpening the ranges and having to deal with too much much noise, this is a fine line and often I don't pick up on my mistake till later. I appreciate your consideration on the matter.

    Thank you for all you do!

    Rich
