In Photoshop, a picture can be put into another by selecting the elliptical marquee tool, drawing a circle around part of a picture and copying it and pasting it onto another picture. Put one picture into another in Photoshop and edit it to scale with tips from a portrait photographer in this free video tutorial on Adobe Photoshop.

lets say I draw a square. Now I draw a star. How can I merge these two shapes into one shape that I can save as a custom shape etc.
This is so easy it shocked me - just click on one of the path icons in the shape layer (not the color square - when you click the path, it will highlight with an outline around the square), copy it, click on the other shape layer path icon and paste. DO NOT select all or load the selection or anything - just click the layer. It will combine the two paths into one.

In this video I demonstrate the new features in Adobe Photoshop CS4 extended. Today I will be looking at the new 3D capabilities not found in the previous Creative Suite (CS3 Extended).
Features demonstrated:
O Converting 2D images to 3D shapes
- The new “3D” menu
- Conversion to 3D
O Working with 3D shapes
- Moving the 3D object
- Rotating the 3D object
- Scaling the 3D object
O Painting on 3D objects
- Using regular Photoshop tools eg. brush, dodge, smudge on 3D shapes
- Paint remains when rotating
O Editing a flat texture
- Painting on the flat texture of the object
- Exporting it onto the object
O 3D Advanced Workspace
- Lighting tools
- Materials
- Textures
- Other 3D tools
My thoughts on the 3D capabilities
I am very impressed with the 3D tools and how fast they are. I think it is amazing that I can use all the tools for 2D images on the 3D shape. I think editing the flat texture could do with a live preview as you are making changes whilst blind.
There is a good selection of shapes eg. sphere, cube. But one thing that disappoints me is there is no ability to create a custom shape with lines. They should have added that feature instead of making the pointless “hat” shape.
My thoughts on the program as a whole
The regular tools run incredibly fast when editing 2D images and run a lot faster than expected on 3D shapes. There are a few minor additions which will speed up productivity which is very good.
However, I feel very angry at Adobe as they say they have lots of new features powered by your graphics card. If you don’t have a good system then these are useless to you.
What Adobe have just added is something to make the faster computers faster. Not all tools work if you have a bad graphics card (that means me and my 72mb Unicorn :P).
I will demonstrate canvas rotation, panning, zooming and other OpenGL features when I get a new computer in December.

All you need is Photoshop CS3 Extended or greater.

Having a little issue with creating new rectangles and shapes, if i create one shape and apply different blending options to it (shadow, bevel, stroke ect.), then Photoshop will automatically apply those same effects to every new shape that I make, how do I turn this off? It’s extremely annoying when I am trying to create multiple shapes each with different effects.
Wowee!!! I've never had that problem but figured you had somehow set the blending options as a default and decided to pick around and find out how/where/why that could have happened. And I think I found out where it was happening, but now I have the same problem you do!!
When you have a shape drawn and are in the layer effects options, at the top it says Blending Options: Default. When that is highlighted, it appears that whatever effects are applied become the default for new shapes that you draw.
I think if you click off that, set the shape to have no effects and click back on it, you get the plain shape as your default. I can't manage to recreate my moves exactly, but this is definitely where it is happening.
But once I apply a style, it keeps happening again. I'm going to keep looking, but this is a start.
Edit: I can't make it go away. Maybe this is normal and I just don't usually use layer styles.
You can just draw a shape - let it get the old layer style, right click and clear the layer style and start fresh.
This is weird. I hope someone else knows more about it.
Adding a solid shape to your Photoshop image is easy with the shape or rectangle tool. Learn to use the shape and rectangle tools in Photoshop CS3 in this free Photoshop tutorial video.

i want to make an animation but i cant make the file thing a shape.i did before but it was on accident and now i dont know how to. can someone tell me how?please
You are going to have to be waaaay more specific than that. Photoshop is a very complicated program and can take up to 2 years to learn. (I know, I did it). Airbrushed photographs and all the other graphics you see in magazines are done with Photoshop, for instance. It is not really for consumers and is intended to be used in a professional environment (large companies, publishing houses, etc.) But, anyway. First of all, what "file thing?" Second of all, Adobe Photoshop doesn't do animation, Adobe Flash does.
Drawing a custom shape in Photoshop is like using many other tools. Learn how to draw custom shapes in Photoshop from a professional photographer in this free Photoshop tutorial video.

In this video I will be showing you some basic shapes built into the program. I have made this video because I only showed the “donut” shape in the last one.
The movement of 3D objects is very smooth, the recording studio slowed down the rendering in this video. However, the movement should be more fluid than the last one.
O Shapes demonstrated
- Donut
I created a dough-like texture and Photoshop transformed it in 3D space. Downloadable version has sugar.
- Soda Can
One of my favourites, I created a Coca-Cola can that can be rotated in 3D space. Downloadable version has more accurate properties eg. glossiness
- 3D Postcard
Quite a powerful one that is great for perspective and advertisements. I rotated a 2D object in 3D space, sort of like a photograph. Downloadable version is the same.
- Sphere
A very good shape that I have used to create an orb like effect. There are many tutorials to create a good orb, I have applied their techniques with a twist. Downloadable version has better light locations.
I have used various pictures to demonstrate why these objects would be great for certain tasks.
