I've tried all sorts of things. In photoshop i used multiple layers for highlights, lowlights and several overlay modes to get the right idea. I tried the liquify tool for the wrinkles and puckers... I also used a bit of illustrator to try and use the mesh tool. I'm pretty sure I know the longest way possible to get the job done but do you guys have any time saving techniques or have some links that would help?

I need this image

to look like it was printed on this

And keep all the wrinkles/shadows, etc.

What are your thoughts?

set it to multiply in photoshop.

Multiply and a bit of transform/warp tool.

Here's an understandable tutorial on how to use a Displacement Map (a what?) to do the job.

Thanks...That's exactly what i needed...

Multiplying the layer just isn't gonna do it...Hello, I'm not retarded!

I did volunteer warping to be fair, which would do the job well enough.

Yes Maerk you're right it would do it well enough. There are always more than one way of doing things and I really wanted to know the fastest yet best quality way of doing it and the diplacement map tutorial really hit it on the head. I could just use multiply and have a ton of layers with shadows and highlights and then warp it using the liquify tool which would've gotten it done in 20 steps but with the displacement map it will get the job done in just a handfull of steps.

the displacement map thing is a bit dodgy but with a bit of a play you can get the desired results.

You could use the vanishing point tool, possibly.

Just make a grid the shape you need and move the photo on the grid.
