PHOTOSHOP:How to make a TRIPTYCH?

i need to make tryptych photos for an upcoming exhibition.

i have taken some photos but i do not know how to make them triptych in photoshop.

1.firstly id like to know how to divide a full photo into three equal parts.

2.and also how to put three different photos together to make a normal size photo. i dont know if i am being clear or not but say i have a photo of a shoe and another photo of another shoe, and a photo of both shoes together. and i want to stick all three photos together to make a normal size photo.

but i dont know what the size of a normal photo is etc.

i think i confused everyone but if you could help thatd be great :D

thanks

I must admit to being a bit confused!

I don't know any easy way to split a photo into three equal parts - you'll just have to get the rulers out and put in some guidelines I guess.

A 'normal' sized photo is 6" x 4" - so if you just create a blank canvas that size you can simply cut and paste your images onto it.

Does that help at all?

Cropping may be a decent way to cut a picture into three pieces (remember to save an original seperately).

Cutting and pasting may be a good option for bringing together three photos. (I dont remember if photoshop calls it that, but I would use a tool that functions like that.)

More normal picture sizes include 5x7, 8x10, 11x14, and 16x20. I suppose I would go by the size of frame (if there is one specified size) for the show. Otherwise, bigger is better, but watch your dpi or it wont look as nice. Try not to drop below 180, or your image will get grainy.
