Very Imprtnt

[kimms83]

Okay- so my main goal in learning/using Photoshop is to do web/graphic design for actual sites or anything else....($$$) Being new at PS, there are a few things (which I'm certain are so simple once figured out) that I'm not sure how to do yet, but are vital for what I'm wanting to do:

1) How do I cut out an image say, from its background and then keep JUST that image (getting rid of the background)?

2) How do I combine multiple seperate images onto ONE PS document?

3) How do I use javascript in PS- or is it even possible?

I have a couple small sites that have asked for samples of my stuff. I would really like to show them graphics that have required more knowledge and time along with what I currently have. If anyone could help me out with this, I would be forever grateful! Thanks sooo much for your time!!!

1) once you cut out the image, you have one of two options depending on what you did.

A) if you cut the image out of the background, just make a new file (ctrl+n). The dimensions on the new document will be automatically set to the size of what you have cut.*

B) if you cut the background out from around the image, press ctrl+a (to select all), edit->copy, then make a new file as described above.*

*I would either save your new file as a .psd (Photo Shop Document), or a .png (Portable Networks Graphic) file. Those are two file types which I am sure support transparency.

2) Umm... Copy and Paste? Maybe I'm not understanding you correctly...

3) At the moment there is not a way to incorporate javascript while in photoshop. You'll probably need to look into DreamWeaver for that.
