How to create a fake id

Note: This tutorial is for academic purposes only, and should not be
attempted as it may be illegal depending on your location.

Creating Front of ID
First you will need to create an ID on your computer. Linkbase has an
amazing Florida drivers license Photoshop template available for
download. You can make this look amazing, and all it takes is a basic
grasp of Photoshop.

Creating Back of ID
Next you will need to create a back for your ID. Make sure you edit
the image properties to make it the EXACT same size as the front of
your ID. You will have to create the back yourself, but it is
relatively simple to find a barcode online. You can use your real
drivers license for inspiration. Make sure you add a "magnetic strip,"
which can be found by searching for a "black bar" on Google Images and
resizing accordingly. I have a sample I can post if there is enough
interest.

Printing Your ID
Fake IDs can be printed on photo paper or cardstock, but in order to
create a profession quality ID, you need a special type of paper
called Teslin. Laser printers will not print on Teslin, but most
inkjet printers will work, particularly Epson printers. Make sure you
print with the highest quality settings. Print the front and back
images on both sides of the paper. If you decide to go with photo
paper instead of Teslin, use two different sheets, then glue them
together, along with a layer of cardstock in between.

Finishing Your ID
Carefully cut your ID out, and make sure you give it rounded corners.
Now all that's left is to laminate it. You can get self-lamination
sheets at any Staples, or you can invest in a laminator. Many models
are available for under $50. One last touch many people like to give
their IDs is a hologram. Excellent holograms can be purchased very
cheaply here. Arcadia also has many other products to perfect the
finishing process.

Using Your ID
Many people have different ideas on how to use a fake ID. Most people
agree that it a good idea to keep your ID in a plastic covering in
your wallet, and offer over your whole wallet if the clerk asks for
ID. Also, some people like to tell the clerk to keep the change if
they think she's getting suspicious. This gives her an incentive
(perhaps even an unconscious one) to not question the ID.

section. Also, remember this should not be attempted, as possession of
a fake ID may be illegal depending on where you live.
