Hello my firned.. i can tell that adobe photoshop cs2 is totally differnt then 7.0 and cs1 eh! oh well.. looks like to me that you duplicated the layer and the you did sit the top one either to multiply and or overlay.. if the original is the original as i can see.. that means what i mentioned above.. try it again and tell me.. oh! i can see that you added after that some sharpen to the image.. So here is my suggestion.. 1- Open the original nuder your CS2 2- Click Ctrl + J to Duplicate the layer 3- Choose the top layer from your layer window on the right 4- Set the layer option in the same window to MULTIPLY If not.. Then trey the OVERLAY. 5- Goto Filter and add some sharpen image onece.. 6- I guess you know how to make that simple frame eh! And you are all done unless you played with the levels as well.. You can find that under the image menu > Adjustments Hope that i did help you enough.. and i think it is exactly what you did.. Waiting for your reply.. Thanks and respect.. JOE
