You need to study the documentation for the structure of PSD files.

You have two options:
1. Look for a ready-made (free or payed) library for reading PSD in .NET (there were one I remember with Paint.NET)...
2. Learn the documentation and write your own library: Adobe Photoshop File Formats Specification[^]
