blend 1
in photoshop?
(just the banner part, der I know how to image map)
or something similar to
blend 2

or could somebody please make a cb tutorial?
sorry -.- I kinda suck at blending because I recently got interested in it.

It looks like you need an extraction tut, b/c those people were extrated from whatever background they were on.

^ thanks.
How do you make one of those backgrounds, they're on too?
I know you can on photoshop..
sorry if that didn't make sense >_>

It looks like a... 10 by 10-ish pattern. An x pattern. Make one. Then make two layers.

First layer: Fill it with your pattern
Second layer: Fill it with a gradient and put it on... Soft light? Overlay? Something like that. Then between this layer and the first layer, stick all your images.
