"Adobe Photoshop is a registered trademark of Adobe Systems, Inc., and I am in no way affiliated with Adobe. So now in this small step, we're going to actually add gray to our tape. Basically you want to come down over here to set your foreground colors. You want to click on that and you want to go up to gray, light gray, something like that. You want to hit okay. Now what you want to do is come over here to your paint bucket, as you can see G is the shortcut, and you want to fill that layer with gray. Now you can actually use your move tool to move it, or if you want you can hit command control T and you can actually turn your piece a tape. And now you can move your piece of tape right on the edge of your picture, right there. Now if you want to make it bigger you can actually stretch it out just a little bit, just to make it a little more real. This is kind of something where you want to play with your envisions, move it back and forth and make sure that it looks realistic and that it goes over both edges of your picture, just like that. As you can see it's still selected, and the way that you get rid of that selection is by hitting command control D on the PC, and now we got rid of it. And now we have a little piece of tape and we are going to make it look more realistic on the next steps."
