I'm REALLY wanting to make blends like this by Nikkiness from the HP Boards:



But the problem is I haven't done many before and I don't really know a good technique to doing them.

I've looked over a few of the tutorials on blends on this site but none of them really tell me how to get the effect I like (example above).

This is what I got when I tried:



What I dis is I resized the images and then laid them on top of each other, then I took the eraser and erased the parts that were overlapping.

My question is: Are there anmy tutorials or tips & tricks that you could give me?

^ You don't need to rasterize. Only rasterize as a LAST RESORT. If you find a typo, then you'll have to start all over again.



Make sure your text layer is selected, then go to that button on the bottom of your Layers palette that says "fx" (it's highlighted in the image). Then pick the last one, "Stroke", and from there you can choose your desired colour and thickness, etc.
