Looks great :D Nice Picture too ^-^

Thanks, I'm only good at photography when I have people that want to pose for me. Otherwise I'm stumped, like right now, photo class is hard. I gotta whip up a digital assignment for shits though, since it's so easy to do and I can do it at home, heh.

I am just started with photoshop so i don't now how to place a layer behind can some one explain me

Well, It's pretty simple if I understand what your asking. If you have two layers in your layers palette, than you can just grab (click and hold) the top layer and move it underneath your other one.

I think thats what you're asking. If not, let me know :D

Very awesome tutorial! Thank you very much.
