Nr Layout 1

I'm not quite sure why people say "how dya make an nr layout" because I just transfer my skills to any style, but anyway thise are written for my friend lynne since she keeps asking how to in PSP.
These were written using psp7, but will transfer to all versions.
This tutorial will cover my first style, Blending themes.

Stage 1

First, pick a theme. I have chosen Kass vs Jeran. Then, go to the background section and search for your topic. My past topics have been faeries, sloth, meerca, faerie, maraqua, but you can choose absolutely anything. usually what I do is choose 4 in which the characters are leaning towards different ways. The reason I suggest choosing a theme is the background colours will blend easier.
Now select 4 backgrounds that look...well, reasonably good to work with. I chose:

Open them all up in your program, and select the image which perhaps the character leans more to the left. If you wish this to be a smaller blend, you may resize your images to around 600. If you want them to fill the screen leave them as they are. Anyway, go to Image>>canvas size and add 200 to the width. Then position your second background so that it would overlap the first image. Select the overlap and press ctrl and h, and enter a figure between 38 and 40. if there is a character involved in the overlap, use the lassoo tool and avoid the character. Press delete until you are happy.
Next, add 200 to the height of the canvas size, and find your bottom left image. Do the same again, but this time with the upper edge.
Finally, add your final image to the bottom right and repeat the steps as used on the other images.

Stage 2

This is really to make your image look...quality. Firstly, try a few textures on it. I'm not saying which ones, since I can't see your image. I would suggest hybrid-genesis.net but each to their own.
Secondly, introducing amanda's nr lay tutorial: here.
Ofcourse all of this is up to you and you may choose what you wish. this was really just to show you how to make a 1 theme blended layout.
Mine turned out like this:
STEAL AND DIE

Note that I added a 5th image:
