photoshoping help

from WinCustomize Forums

hey all.. yeah im still alive.. i think...  Been working too dang much and not able to do any dx stuff or much of anything else these days.

I have a favor to ask.  I have a photo of some friends and we wanted to make it look like they had torches in their hands (some) and that the house behind them was on fire.  I have very LITTLE skill in this area, and thought that someone might be bored and want to help me out with this.

Im really trying to do this fast as its a gag for the people who's house we were in. They are out of town and we wanted to mess with them. 

I know there are a lot of you that could do this pretty simply and fast (i suck at this stuff).  Just thought id throw this out to the people i thought could pull it off.

burning down the house

So lets see.. people with "sticks' should have "torches".. the kid in the chair needs to be "tied" up - not gaged.

The guy on the right should have a sword maybe?

The woman in the middle at the top should be "pouring something" on the kid in the middle.

Here is the link to the full sized file

I know im asking a lot.. but i just thought someone out there had the time and talent and would like to help me out.

Thanks in advance!

I'm sure I.R. Brainiac can do better than this, but in case you need it before he gets done, it's my day off and I needed a break from what I was doing before...so, here's my quick mod for you.

Really?  I didn't think mine was near as good as WebGizmos.  I used this rope brush http://browse.deviantart.com/resources/applications/psbrushes/?qh=&section=&q=rope#/d12v6lh put a bevel on it, and cast a shadow.
