Title: Need help with my thesis on hip-hop culture (PHOTOSHOP experts, check in)
Post by: CRAFTY on October 28, 2006, 05:42:29 AM: Alright, most of you know by now that I'm in my last year of college and that I'm writing a thesis called "The Evolution of Hip-Hop Culture". Well, I've finished writing that thesis a few weeks ago. The only thing I still have to do now is putting the finishing touches on my lay-out.

I need to have one picture that will end up on the cover of my thesis. I searched the Net and decided to look up one pic of each pillar of hip-hop culture (rap music, breakdancing, turntablism, graffiti and beatboxing). The thing is...I would like to have these 5 individual pics melted into one separate picture, so I can insert it into my Word document.
Can someone who knows how to work with Photoshop do this for me? The dimensions of the pic for my cover are: approximately 9 cm (length) and 12 cm (width). It's about the same size as the breakdancer-pic that I've posted.

Here are the separate pics that I'm using:

Major thanks to anyone who could do this favour for me.

Some say the culture of hip-hop consists of four elements, other say five elements - adding 'beatboxing'. I decided to go with the five pillars.
And yup, I graduate in June so that means I'll be in Los Angeles in July or August of '07 8)
