I may be answering this too late to be any use, but here goes anyway:
I use Jasc PSP 9.1, but maybe it will work the same with your Corel version.
First I make a New Raster Background at the size I need.
Add a New Raster Layer.
Click File>Browse, which should bring up a window from which to choose the
first image. This window appears within the workspace, so I simply drag and
drop the image onto my background [or rather, the new layer I've just
created on the background]
Add a New Raster Layer.
The Browse window should still be present, navigate to wherever the second
image is, drag and drop onto the new layer.
I use the Raster Deform Tool to resize/reshape the two images to fit
comfortably beside each other on the background. Make the individual layers
active as needed to work with each image.
But if I want the images to be stacked on top of each other [for example:
image #1 a street scene, with image #2 a person I want to place on the
street] then I have to play around with removing superfluous parts of image
#2 [the eraser tool works ok for this, but there are third-party tools that
often do a better job of removing unwanted parts of photos. I like a free
program called Inpaint].
When satisfied with the result, Merge All and Save As [file name].
Post by d***@gmail.comI am unable to determine how to put two different photos into the layers
palette for PSP X4. When I select one photo it becomes the background. When
I select another photo it becomes the background in a separate layers
palette.
