   The tutorial are brilliant, and really easy to understand how simple steps can make any image look better.
   The only thing that would help is the web links to the images used in each tutorial to practice on. so you can follow the tutorial step by step.

    Hi Corey
    This is a good sample of a silhouette. Could you please send me the picture or jpg of the dove? I have pictures of movie stars, but not a dove. When I use a dove from the internet this lesson doesn’t work.

    Hi,

    working through your awesome tutorials, I’ve stumbled upon one problem I cannot solve: Trying to apply the gradients as described, to soften the image, only the last gradient I apply sticks, canceling out the previous…this way, in my mask I see only one gradient applied, not multiple as it should be?
    What am I doing wrong? (I’m on PS 7). Your input would be greatly appreciated!! Many thanks for your great work!
    John

19. Corey Barker said on — August 16, 2009 @ 1:30 pm

    Make sure that you have the Foreground To Transparent gradient selected. Not the Foreground to Background!!

20. John said on — August 16, 2009 @ 2:56 pm

    Yes, you are right – that was the reason it didn’t work. Now my dove is flying!

    Thank you!

22. Corey Barker said on — August 26, 2009 @ 12:52 pm

    It’s Shift-Delete on a Mac and Shift-Backspace on Windows.
