hey there. i was wondering if anyone could help me figure out how to merge a 12x12 lo so i could post it. i have tried and tried and i can't figure it out. this is part of the reason that i don't do 12x12 lo's anymore. that and i am intimidated by all the space...lol

anyhow, i have PSElements 3.0...

thanks in advance!

not sure about PSelements, but try searching the help link under "stitch." that's the term my program uses. i scan one section, flip it around, scan the rest, then the program will match up the two images into one complete 12X12. hth!

If you are shooting the original LO in 2 (or however many you might take) shots then be sure to have all your camera settings & lighting the same for both shots...makes the photomerge much easier and less tweaking needed to match colors and shadows.

Open your shots of what you want to merge and choose the Photomerge command...Elements will start building a document with those photos on different layers as it stitches them together...if you want to keep all the layers separate when the merge is done make sure you check of "Keep Layers" (or whatever that check box says! LOL).

Let us know how you make out...it's been a long time since I used PSE 3 so my memory may be a tad rusty & someone else may be able to give more info.
