SUPERIMPOSE

i. Open the template as the background and a color of your choice as the foreground. Put the image on screen and then use the rectangle crop options to crop it into the space or you can also use the polygon crop tool as well if that helps. Merge. 

ii. However, you may notice while doing this that the color you originally had chosen might be a little darker/brighter than the original color, and that's because of the screen effect. If this bothers you, like it did to me, what I did was put the image on screen firstly and then used the crop options to crop it to my shape in the template and then I put the transform mode back on normal and merged. Repeat for all colors as desired. This might take some time to do, so don't think it's a fast process.

iii. Open your first PNG as the foreground and turn the saturation down all of the way under the filter tab. Feel free to adjust the contrast and exposure of the PNG before placing and merging as well. Repeat this step for all people in the image. 

iv. After you're done with the people, I wanted to make the white background something different, so I uploaded a tanish color that is in the add ons to make it look nicer. Don't merge yet. 

v. After I did this, I put it on the darken mode under the transform tab and then used the rectangle crop to erase anything in the area where I didn't want this color (such as all of the middle). Then I merged and saved and added the text!

COMMENTS

I take zero credit for this idea; I found the inspiration from shoutbee on tumblr (who is amazing af and someone that everyone should go check out) so all credits go to him/her. All I did was make the template and tell you guys how to do it, haha.

bUT GUYS I NEED HELP! Okay, so I'm being Harley Quinn for Halloween right, and I am running low on time and don't have time to go buy actual temporary hair dye, and I was wondering if any of you guys had any genius ideas for DIY temporary hair dyes that work and rinse out easily? Thanks!

question; if you could be a hybrid of two creatures, what would they be and what would the hybrid be called? (you know, something like were-cheeta or something haha)
