Hey guys, it's Ren aka Netflix_Psycho, in this tutorial I'm going to show you how to use templates and I'm also going to include a few of my favorite templates I like to use.

I did create these templates so if you use them please give me (Netflix_Psycho) credit

This is a cover I created for someone in my covers shop using one of the templates and this is also the cover I'm going to show you how to make

1) Open the template you want to use I'm using the octagon one

2) Using the magic wand tool, I selected one of the octagons and I copied it (you can't see it that well in the photo sorry)

3) I pasted the octagon on the cover that I'm making

4) I started to arrange the shapes the way I wanted it ( to add more shapes just duplicate the layer or you can right click and paste more)

5) Add your photo and set it to screen, you can resize it and rotate it however you like until you get it in the place you want it to be

6) If there's any over hanging that get onto the other octagons then just erase them

7) Now do that to all of the photos this is the finished look, I made it in like two minutes sorry if it's messy. Now you can go and add title and do whatever you want to it

TIP: It's easier if you merge all of the layers together, excluding the title, because then you can resize and move all of the shapes plus the pictures

I hope this helped you. I love creating and using templates because it's really easy and I can use them to create great graphics that don't take that long to make.

Now these are just a few textures that I've made for you guys to use, I'd love to see what you can do with them!
