Displacement Map Creation and Application

Hey guys. Here's a new tutorial for you using Photoshop® CS 6 Extended.  In this tutorial, we will cover how to first make your own displacement map, then using it to apply distortion to an image using the displacement filter.

If you haven't picked up your own copy of CS 6 yet, no problem.  All the tools we are using today are available in CS 5.

Enjoy!
