I have lots of pictures of fans in costume holding lightsaber handles. I also have Photshop Elements. Does anyone know how to draw a decent lightsaber blade using PhotoShop Elements onto an existing photo?

Thanks,

Photo Knight

P.S. You can see some of my Star Wars photos on my Flickr page here.

Welcome Photo-Knight! happy

Nice to see a new member around. Sadly I can't answer your question by explaining how it works, but there's a board where you get your answer for sure: Fan Art. But take a look at the index first or ask the Mod HanSolo29 before you open a new thread, because this question must been answered somewhere already, since it's one of those that you see often. happy

And while you're looking (and waiting) for your answer, why don't you visit us at the FFC Bar? happy

Thanks, everyone! I had looked around for a more appropriate forum for the question, but missed FanArt. I figured it couldn't be a new question.

Yes.. just do it.. I can't explain how, really. Just use the force.
