blending images

I saw some nice designs at http://www.templatemonster.com' target=_blank rel='nofollow'>template monster and I was wondering how they blend the various photos/images. I bought one to see if I could figure it out. There are 2 layers, each with an image. They seem to overlay the images, and the bottom image seems to have a transparency to it, but the opacity is still 100. How can I get 2 images to blend cleanly into one another?

Are you talking baout creating a montage?...I'm pretty new to this but i think this is what you want..

Try this link below to get the 2nd part of the montage if the first tutorial didn't work.

http://www.thinkdan.com Goto Tutorials in the nav bar then click photoshop tuts. then go back newb tuts to intermediate level and i guess you guess the point.

Yeah, I think that will do it. Thanks, that is a good resource to have!
