Using Adobe Photoshop<br />

Follow these steps to create a still image for <strong>WATCHOUT</strong> using Adobe Photoshop<br />

version 5.5.<br />

1. Open Adobe Photoshop and choose “New” on the File menu.<br />

2. Set the Mode to “RGB Color” and Contents to “Transparent”.<br />

◆ HINT: Use multiple layers in Photoshop<br />

for more flexible control<br />

over image composition. Layer<br />

masks allow you to “paint” additional<br />

transparency onto<br />

individual layers.<br />

Choose “Transparent”. This<br />

shows as a grey checkerboard<br />

in Photoshop and becomes transparent<br />

in <strong>WATCHOUT</strong>.<br />

3. Paint the image and save it as a Photoshop file for use in your<br />

<strong>WATCHOUT</strong> presentation.<br />
