Could use some help with something guys. I have some homework from a small graphics class I'm taking and I'm having trouble with it, we all have to do some kind of picture from, you guessed it, The Matrix, anything we want as long as it's based on that, so I thought I'd try something challenging and try to recreate this effect here.
Maybe I aimed a little high.
Anyway I'm practicing on this pic here, all in Photoshop.
Been struggling for days and the closest I can get to it is this.
Made the Matrix code ok, and what I do have so far looks alright I guess, but I know there's gotta be a way to do it, as you can see there's too much of the character showing through the code compared to Neo where it's all code, tried lowering the opacity, tried toning down his colors, messed around with blending options, tried adding more code (looked like crap), fresh out of ideas, it doesn't have to be perfect but just a little closer than what I have now, any tips, tutorials or whatever? Thanks in advance.

If you get the Matrix ScreenSaver (the one with the images going thru it)
then get a Hex editor - like Exescope
then go to the Bitmaps and change them with your image and youll get a perfect version of it.
If not then photodhop is your only hope

Well, tried it, but it won't let me edit the bitmaps so I'm totally screwed, shame too, it was just the effect I was looking for
Still screwing with it in PS but I'm still nowhere, if anybody can think of anything else....

copy the screensaver pallication -.exe or .scr or whatever the one with the bitmaps in to somewhereelse.
then swap the bitmaps
then replace the edited one with the original

Tried it again, said everything was compressed and that I couldn't edit or view the files, so I just grabbed the paid version of the saver (screw it) and threw the pic into it like that, looks good but it magnifies the pics to sizes where you can only see a part of it at a time, even reducing the sizes and playing around with the options didn't help much, thanks for the help Zedaxax, much appreciated but it doesn't look like that routes gonna pan out
@bujub22: looking forward to it, hope you have more luck than I am.
