I know I haven't been on much, and I apologize. This isn't going to be a fancy journal, either. Sorry about that.

I have been thinking about something I want to do for my girlfriend for Christmas. Yea, I know, little ways away, but with school, I have lost some free time, and I need to start working on it soon. I want to do two photo manips, and I need tutorials the most. The idea is to change a picture of me and her (from the chest up) into animals. Namely, a frog and a polar bear. The second idea was to put those two animals in the same picture, so you have a frog and polar bear together. End result being a picture of us as animals, and a picture of a frog and a polar bear together.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tutorials, links, help, resources, whatever you have or can help me find.
