I saw a cool newspaper effect at the following URL and thought it was nicely
done:

http://www.thetherapist.com/Lipp_Rele_040198.html

It appears to have been done in PhotoShop.  Does anyone know exactly how it
was accomplished?  Obviously it's not a *real* Wall Street Journal article.

My guess is that an original WSJ clipping was scanned in and then the
original text was lifted and replaced with the fictional story, but I can't
figure out how they got the words from the other side of the page to show
through, unless it was done using an opacity trick.

Comments?
