The card will contain a photo and graphics. It is up to each user to decide on how to<br />

arrange them. This card will always be larger than the previously discussed type. A<br />

combined business card is designed for a young man who is a fishing enthusiast,<br />

transport engineer and motorcycle fan. We already have a part of the image, i.e. once<br />

you complete the first 4 steps discussed in the "Business card" from image part section,<br />

you have an image part ready for online use – a photo of a young man and his hobby.<br />

Two more parts are now lacking. Let's try to create them:<br />

1. Since motorcycles are one of the hobbies, open photo Suzuki.jpg picturing a<br />

motorcycle:<br />

2. Apply the Crop Tool to crop the image;<br />

3. Apply ImageScale Image command and adjust the settings in the dialog in<br />

such a way that the image length would be 100 pixels:<br />

4. You now have two images. Let's create a new image by combining the two<br />

images. Select FileNew. When the Create a New Image dialog opens, adjust<br />

the following settings:<br />

4.1. Width – 100 pixels;<br />

4.2. Height – 200 pixels;<br />

5. Return to the first image. Press Rectangle Select Tool:<br />

5.1. Select the image;<br />

5.2. Apply EditCopy command;<br />

5.3. Go back to the new image and apply EditPaste command. The first image is<br />

positioned in the centre. It opens a new Floating Selection (Pasted Layer);<br />

5.4. Select the Move Tool and move the first image to the upper part of the new<br />

image:<br />

5.5. In the Layers dialog, press the Create a new layer and add it to the image<br />

button to locate the first image to the new rather than the floating layer;<br />

6. Return to the second image. Press the Rectangle Select Tool:<br />

6.1. Select the image;

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
