I have a few ways I try and blend...in one way...lets say its a black background...i like to color all around my image i wanna paste in that background with black, and then just copy and paste as a transparent image and there ya go...

My question however is...on certain images it will not allow me to color the background the color I want...an example: I chose a black background, for my banner. My pics were light colored backgrounds. I choose my airbrush tool and choose black...opacity was at 100...when I tried to color my pics black it came out grey....If you understand this can anybody help???

Thanks
<cheers>
