Photoshop How-To: Automatically Blend Multiple Layers

This tutorial is an installment of The Russell Brown Show.
In this video, Russell demonstrates how to use Photoshop CS3’s Auto-Blend feature to combine multiple photos. The resulting image not only merges the two sources, but blends their texture and shading like magic.

Auto-blending can be for practical purposes…

Or, um, less-than-practical purposes.

    The subject is good, but I hated the animation on the lead page, and I gave up on loading QuickTime so never saw the tutorial (I don’t get much out of tutorial movies anyhow.)

    Hi, the link to this tutorial takes me to InDesign Magazine, for which I do not have an account. There seems to be no way to get an account other than subscribing, which I do not want to do.

    HELP!

    Thanks,
    CLaudia
