Does anyone know how to put 2 people in 1 photo?

Making it look like we are together when we are not. Is it possible to add a background also?
Thanks

You'll need a photo editing program that can handle layers, which are just like separate pages in a book......

You can add 1 person into the photo of the other......the original photo is the 1st layer & the added person is the 2nd layer.....by having the 2nd layer, you can move the added person into just the right spot.....

There are some free photo programs that can work with layers.....Paint.Net, Gimp & there is a free download of PhotoShop CS2, which is an older version but works just fine....

Its a neat way to make some special photos.....

Happy, There is a program called paint that comes with windows. You can resize your images in that program. After opening up the image that you want to resize in paint, go to "resize" which is on the home menu. A small box will pop up and it will say "resize and skew". On the top of the selections it will say to resize by percentage or pixels. You can use either to make your images smaller. I have a 16 megapixel camera and I usually cut the resolution in half and the images upload. So you could resize by putting in 50% and that would cut your images in half. Since I don't know your resolution, not sure if that will make the image too small or big but you can adjust it accordingly. Hope this helps. Darren

You need to upload the photos directly into the post. When you click into the "Write a comment" box a menu will appear below with a camera icon. When you click that you'll get a dialogue box that allows you to navigate to where the photos are on your computer. You can upload multiple photos into the one post. The uploaded photos will show up in your post before you submit, ie a preview without you having to request a preview.

At first glance, I think your dishwasher needs to move to the left of your sink, the range needs to move to that back wall where your blender is, and fridge needs to move to the other end of the wall (where the little cabinet to the left of the range is) and fill the wall between fridge and dining room with pantry cabinets and/or a high cabinet with a microwave shelf. If you want to open the wall a bit, you could just do fridge-narrow pantry-base cabinet on that kitchen/living room wall. sorry if that doesn't make a lick of sense. I'm happy to draw it out if you provide dimensions and door/window locatoins.

It's hard to tell what that is with the leaves being wilted and washed like that. It could be environmental damage from weather, etc. Could be a mold. Could be more serious, like late blight, although that's not very likely in your location and at this time of year. But if you're not doing so already, I would start spraying regularly with a fungicide. There are a few different options depending on whether or not you're organic. Daconil is a common non-organic option that is effective against a wide range of fungal diseases. There is also copper (there are organic and non-organic versions). Other options are neem oil and biologicals such as Serenade. Regardless of which option(s) you choose, you should spray regularly, every 1 to 2 weeks and reapplying if there has been rain. Be aware that most fungicides labeled for safe use on vegetables and available to the home gardener are preventative or for slowing down the progress of fungal disease. It's not going to be a spray-once-and-cure-the-problem-for-good situation. It's a tool to manage the progress of disease along with pruning off affected foliage. Your plants look pretty good aside from the foliage you pruned off. I would spray and keep my fingers crossed that it wasn't a serious disease. But even with totally healthy plants, many people choose to spray preventatively. Because tomatoes are so prone to many common fungal and bacterial diseases, spraying as prevention is a normal practice and not a waste of time and resources.

Sorry joann......I should have provided you with a link:

http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/gmm/fwgraphicedit.html

All the graphic programs listed here are for a free download....SnapFiles is a very reputable site & will warn you if a program will want to install additional toolbars etc.....so you can have the option to opt out during the installation....

You should find something here to help you with your project....

Cheers,

Kanooka, I just tried to download it and it wouldn't let me, I also tried the paint.net no go either. I even tried the free photoshop but it need a code of some kind.
Just got my PC out of the shop and I don't want to mess it up.

Is there something that doesn't need downloading that would work to just put 2 people in a photo together? something easy.
Thanks

Joann - if you want to email them to me, I can give it a shot. I am not a pro, but I can give it a go.

Joann, I don't know if this would work for you, but could you scan your pictures together, save them to your computer, then put them in a photo editing program, where you can erase whatever you don't want?
