This tutorial will help people understand how to use and apply layer masks in Photoshop. I am using Photoshop CS2 on a Macintosh laptop. [details (http://www.retouchpro.com/tutorials/?m=show&id=223)]

Hi Folks. For some reason, my screen shot images were not uploaded with my first tutorial on layer masking. I contacted Doug Nelson for help. Please be patient and see what happened. Thanks steveb

Thanks Steveb, Wonderful information that I can really use!!!! Artsigirl

A great basic tutorial that has really opened this beginner's eyes. Now I know what everyone has been talking about. Thanks, SteveB! JMC77

Steve, what browser are you using? I found That in firefox I could only upload gifs so I had to use Internet Explorer *shudder*

Very helpful. Now I understand whats going on with Masks. Thanks.

Great! but it would be much better if you have some images in there, for beginners to understand more :D :bow:

Folks, thank you for your support. I had trouble getting the images up and of course without screenshots, tutorials are not user friendly. I am going to try some new approach and I emailed Doug about the problem sometime ago. I know there were some bugs in the publishing system and honestly, I forgot that I posted this. BTW, I have new QT movie tutorials but haven't found a way yet to upload them via the publishing system. I'll keep you posted and see if I can update the layer mask tutorial in a QT

Thanks for your support SteveB2005
