One way to do it is to take images of textures and store them on your hard drive. You can copy them and add them as a layer over the BG, then adjust layer blend mode and opacity to vary the appearance. But this isn't legal in DPC challenges, so I assume Joey has some other approach. Photoshop has "textures" that can be applied, and you can turn any image into a testure and save it in the textures library, but I've always assumed this is not legal since it's essentially a second image overlaid, and I have never done it for a challenge.

well Robert (thx for the comment}}) u just did tell us how to do it
think it all depends on what structures u choose to put over/under
so Evan in the toolmenu u have to choose the on top left just beside the little square if u click it u can pick an image and drop it into another and than play with the opacity till u like it
u might erase some parts u dont want to have double-layered
also with the dodge and burn can add some accents
flatten the images and u can do it over and again till u like what u see
i used 3 images for this 'gymps'
hope it makes sense for u Evan ;~) |

Good find. This one goes directly to Joey's instructional post in that thread. |

| The best way to do it is to overlay textures into different blend modes and mess around in there. Whenever I go places with the camera I am always searching for textures, I got a whole folder full. :-) |

There is a great free Photoshop TV podcast on iTunes explaining how to turn a photo into an aged antique shot...
