Hi Everyone, I've been reading posts on here for the past 12 months or so and find it a great site. I wondered if anyone could tell me how to do the following:
I want to make one image take on a specific shape, but not just a clipping path where the original sits under the mask. So for example if I have a photo of a white fluffy cloud and i want it to take on a certain shape of say a heart or a car, but using the whole cloud, so all the edges will bend/distort as necessary to take on that shape. I'm sure it's fairly simple but i can't figure it out.
Any ideas would be great
Cheers
Graham

Hi grezza,
Can you post an example?

I'm thinking this tutorial is what you want...

Be sure to check out the other tutorials available as there are some that could also be used to achieve what you want.

Thanks for the quick responses.
Ray- I haven't got any examples yet, my idea is to photograph some cloud formations, then create a cloud in the shape of the outline of the UK, as it's always cloudy!! So Kerry's link is a great tutorial which if I read it in more detail may well do the trick, but that's what I'm after creating. So keep the ideas coming.
Cheers for now
Graham.
