(DVD Case) Display/guides.

Display option.

First I opened Photoshop, first thing that appeared was the screen option in this option I was given the options of changing the width, height, pixels etc. but I decided to change my color mode first. I had two options that would work for my project and those where RGB and CMYK. I made small research regarding the two  and decided to choose the CMYK option / 8 bit the reason why I decided to use set my mode to CMYK is because Most of the time when images are created using the RGB option will ofeten be used for images that will be projected on electronic systems. CMYK is used commonly for printing images this will then give you a similar image to the one on your screen.








For my project I had to make a poster which will be placed on the front of a dvd cover. to do this I first needed to add guides to help me create my poster accuratelyy  . To do this I went to view and then I used the guides and dragged in three rectangle boxes measurements to imitate a dvd cover .the reason why I did this is because I didn't want to create an image that would be too big for my cover so I made guides to guide me as I made my image, because a common problem that people have when printing their images is that the image will often be too big or small so by adding guides this eliminates this problem.
