How Do You Insert an Image Into Photoshop?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 1:05 pm

Adding an image into Photoshop is a pretty easy process, but there are a few things you need to know before you get started. The first thing you need to do is open up the image you want to use in Photoshop. Once the image is open, go to the “File” menu and select “Open. ”

Next, go to the “Edit” menu and select “Paste.” This will bring up a dialog box asking you where you want to paste the image. Select the “Layer” you want to paste the image into and click “OK.”

PRO TIP: When inserting an image into Photoshop, be sure to use the ‘Place’ command and not the ‘Paste’ command. The ‘Paste’ command will give you poor results.

Now that the image is in Photoshop, you can start editing it.

If you want to change the way the image looks, go to the “Image” menu and select “Adjustments.” Here you can play around with the brightness, contrast, saturation, and other settings. If you’re not sure what something does, hover your mouse over it and a tooltip will appear.

Once you’re happy with the way your image looks, go to the “File” menu and select “Save As.” This will bring up a dialog box where you can choose where to save your file and what format to save it in. JPEG is a good choice for most images.

In conclusion, inserting an image into Photoshop is easy once you know how. The most important part is selecting the right layer to paste your image into so that you can edit it without affecting other parts of your design.
