Photoshop assistance

hey as you may or may not know i now have Adobe Photoshop and i've always wanted that reflection effect so if you can teach me great

What I do is this:
1) Bring in the box into a canvas that is a a small bit wider, and about 2/5 taller than what you want to make a reflection of.
2) Duplicate the box
3) Rotate copy 180 degrees.
4) Flip the copy like like this: <-->
5) Bring duplicate down below the actual box.
6) Lower the opacity to around 10-20%
I hope that helps.

Pretty much what RB said but instead of doing step 3 & 4, just tell it to Flip Verticle. (^^)d

Hey, you're right...Why didn't I think of that?

Optional part - At the end maybe you can put a layer mask on your reflection layer and put a black to white gradient so it looks like a fading off towards the end..

I agree with Timmeh, i've used that on my kingdom hearts box i have up and i think it looks more professionally done
