WE ARE AIMING FOR 50 EDITED PHOTOS per partner pair

Today we will be editing our collection of stock photos. See the before and after photos to the right.

First, look through your photos and delete anything that is BLURRY or cut off on the edges.

Next, open a stock image and double click the layer to unlock it.

1. Press C to open the crop tool. Take off any excess white.
2. Press SHIFT-CTRL-B to auto correct color.
3. Press CTRL-L to open Levels and make adjustments to contrast/white balance.
4. Use magic wand or quick select to select the white background.
5. Click "Refine Edge". Adjust the "Smooth" slider to eliminate ragged edges. Click OK.
6. Press backspace to cut the white background.

We will be saving these as a PNG file this time- not a JPG. PNG keeps your background clear, allowing you to use the image almost like a sticker.
