I have a couple of questions, and I may not be in the right forum.
I'd like to make something similar to what's in this picture. Can I do it in PSE? Instead of redesigning from the ground up, I'd like to replace the photos in the background with my own photos.
That said, do I need to do it in InDesign? I'd like to avoid Illustrator if possible. I'd even be willing to make it a rectangle instead of a pointed banner. Thanks!
It would be helpful if you could post a screen shot of your layers panel. It should look something like this:
It is not essential that you create a new file. I just did that to create a white layer at the bottom. However, your original image layer has to be at the top of the layers panel. Essentially what we are doing is cutting holes in the photo so that the images underneath can appear through the holes. It is also essential that your selection takes place on the top layer, so make sure it is highlighted as in this screenshot before making the selections.
If the original photo is not at the top of the layers stack, you can click and drag the layer to place it at the top.
Hope this helps, but please ask any other questions you may have about this workflow.
