I was wondering if anyone knew how to Blend two images together, by blend I mean:

image1.png | Blend | image2.png

What do you mean exactly? Well from what you said you can try some of the Linear options in photoshop on your layer. Mess with those till you get what you want.

" | blend | " makes it look like a console program.  That's what I assumed, anyway..

That didn't help. In Paint Shop Pro, there's an Arithmetic option from which you can join two images and allows you to add, subtract, AND, OR, darkest, lightest, etc. You can also have it focus the join/"blend" on specific RGB panel colors.

You should have specified which program you're using.

You could probably use Adobe Photoshop or Adobe imageready to change the opacity of both images making them slightly transparent to eachother. However, i'm not sure if that would get the same effect that you want. Also if one of the images is the background layer then you should have no trouble using opacity to make them blend.

Exactly! There are some good tutorials on this at the site I posted.

To use your advice:

Google it.

Thank you.

I thought I had replied to this....

You wouldn't want to change the opacity of both images, just the one on the top layer -- to 50%.
