Hello!

"lmb" means Left Mouse Button.

"ctrl + lmb" it's for you to press the "Control" button (in your keyboard), plus the Left Mouse Button (in your mouse).

Regards,
Sepraud

Ty for the help.

But the guidelines. Is that just to use the marqueetool and to mark the areas ?

not sure if there's an easier way to do this, but turn off all but one layer, then hold CTRL+SHIFT+S (save as) and name the file... then turn off that layer, turn on another, and save as again... repeat til you've saved all the layers as separate files

Accept no substitutions.

i would use the sqare marquee tool with a lot of zoom to get it tight around each view then expand the selection by 5 pixels (it wont chage the size of the pic just what is goin to be selected next then do ctrl+c to copy
click new and the new doc size will be the sive of ur selection then paste it into that
do this for all the views

then u know all the pics r the same

hm OK.

I also most confess i didn´t do it the same way as the tutorial suggested user added image

I used the rulers to do some guidelines and divided the images into 4 pieces (front, top , side and back) and i marked it with the marquee tool. Then i copied it and deleted, and i pasted in again, so it created a new layer.

Then i saved the layers individual and opened them 1 by 1.

THEN i copied the image on the layer. Pressed NEW and it automatically knew the proportions for the image and i pasted the copy into the new image.

When i have done that to the rest of them i fixed the proportions in height and side so the fitted together.

(sorry for the crappy English part user added image
