how do I join two jpgs to make one image with photoshop. step by step if possible as I am stupid?

Answer 1

Just because you don't know how to do it, you're not stupid. I can't show you screenshots of how to select and move layers, so there's a couple of tutorials below with some PhotoShop basics which should help get you started.

I can help with the process to answer your question though. The straightforward way is as follows:

1. Open both images in PhotoShop.
2. Select the first image, and click Image > Canvas size
3. Where it says the width in cm, change the cm in the dropdown to pixels
4. Write down the width and height of the first file in pixels and cancel the Canvas size window
5. Repeat steps 2-4 on the second image
6. Go to File > New and create a new image that's large enough to accommodate the width or height of your two images stitched together.
7. Select your first file, press CTRL+A to highlight it all, then copy it with CTRL+C
8. Select the new empty file and press CTRL+V to paste your first image in
9. In this new file, press CTRL+SHIFT+N to create a second, new layer and click OK
10. Repeat steps 7-8 with the second image.

You should now have both images in one image (but on separate layers, so you can move them independently). You can then save this file as a new image when the two layers are in the position you want.

I hope that's of some use!

Answer 2

It's very easy.

1. Open one of the images.

2. increase the canvas size by either the width or the height of the OTHER photo. When you do this, PS asks how you want to add the new space, either to the left, the right, above, below, or on either side of the existing image. You will have to decide where you want the other image to go then select accordingly.

3. Open the other image, select all and copy.

4. go back to the first image with the larger canvas and paste. PS will probably create a second layer for the second image but this will be okay.

5. use the grabber tool to position the images correctly. You will probably have to open the "layers" pallette window and adjust the images on the separate layers.

6. on the layer pallet, merge the layers. you are done

Answer 3

Try paint, it will be a very smaller pain in the @ss.

Click Image, atributes and create an empty image with the size correspond to the double of your image.

If you have two images of 400x300 then create one of 800x300 or 400x600 depending on how you want to paste them.

Then simply copy paste them in paint and move it with the mouse.

Then File -> Save as -> Select Jpg and write a file name

Done !

Answer 4

If you are talking about putting them side by side...
Create a new image larger enough for both pictures
Open the first picture, select and copy it
Paste into the new image - arrage as needed
Open second picture, select and copy it
Paste into the new image - arrange as needed
Save the combined pictures

If you are talking about taking an object out of one picture, and pasting into another...
One the first picture
Erase around the object until you can careful select just that object
Copy it
Open the second picture
Paste the object into the picture (usually as a new layer)
Resize and arrange to fit
Save the combined picture

Answer 5

Well, it’s a long story.

Photoshop is made by Layers. So, you put one photo at layer 1 and then the second photo at layer 2.
At this stage you got a few way to merge them.

Good luck !!!
