you're so vain

THINGS YOU WILL NEED FIRST:

character PSD downloaded ( i downloaded this gorgeous cpsd by @jcsefinepettersen​) 

png photo ( where your face claim aka the actress you are using is cut out from the background )

regular photo of your fc

gif of your fc ( if the CPSD calls for one, it will usually tell you in the description before you click on the download link ).

after downloading your desired character PSD for your Photoshop program, choose File > Open and go through all of you files until you find the desired CPSD.

Double click on desired CPSD and wait the few moments for it to download, may take longer depending on how big the file is, how many tabs you already have opened and the speed of your computer.

Once your file is open, open up the group folder ( if all of the layers are grouped together, that is. ) in your layers tab on the Photoshop sidebar then go back to either your png, picture or gif, click on the main photo and drag into your CPSD tab.

replacement PNG

Most of the time, a notification will pop up right after you have selected your CPSD, if you do not have the fonts downloaded onto your computer that have been used in the original CPSD file so you will have to downloaded said font - most of the time you can find the same font at dafont.com but other times you will have to google the name of the font in order to find a download for it. -- I myself, do not have the font used in this CPSD so I have replaced it with one that I do have that is sort of similar to match the name of my muse ( i’m using sasha larson as an example for the name, you will have to open the folder titled FONTS in order to do this. I have also used a different PSD coloring, which in order to do the same, you will need another PSD downloaded and opened in photoshop as well as the PSD folder opened.

If it doesn't exactly look the way that you have pictured, you may have to use a different photo of your faceclaim, as well as alternate decoration PNG’s if that is what you wish to do as well.
