Step 5:

Add the following blending options to the Original MSN screenshot.

Step 6:

Now for the finnising touch we're going to add a shine at the left edge so it looks like a page-curl. Set the foreground color to white, make a new layer called Shine, and take out the gradient tool with the foreground to transparant gradient

Gradient tool:

Foreground to transparant gradient:


Make a selection of the MSN screenshot, then make a gradient from left to somewhere to 3/4 of the msn screenshot, below is the exact gradient you have to make.



Lower the opacity of this shine layer to 63%, that will leave us with the.

Step 7:

Now this is a nice final result but to make things more realistic we're going to place another MSN screenshot on the right, that would make the whole piece more realistic (this isn't done on the MSN site). Use the same MSN screenshot as before since, but now use the right part without flipping horizontal ofcourse. Place the screenshot like below.



Then move it under the Page-curl layer, and delete the left part with the same technique we used earlier (pen-tool selection).

And now we're finished with this tutorial , looks pretty neat huh?
