    You gave us so much in 2008, Corey. Planet Photoshop is a top-notch site. I predict steadily increasing traffic due to your helpful forums and untouchable tutorials.

    Thanks for sparking my creativity and helping me to understand the marvels available in Photoshop. You’re the best, Corey. (If you were a layer, I’d just keep hitting Command-J)

    Peace, Bob

    Merry Christmas to you and your family Corey.

    I can’t thank you enough for the great tutorials you come up with every week. Not only are they great informatively but they give so much inspiration not only to my work but I’m sure a lot of other PS users out there.
    And….for me, personally, “Planet Photoshop” is the best PS tutorial site, spookily enough, on the PLANET!

    Can’t wait to see what you have for us in 2009 Corey. Best wishes for the New Year.

    Cheers

Create A Composite Layer

If you have a multilayer composition and you
want to apply an effect to all the layers at once, don’t flatten the layers–use a composite layer instead. Hide the layers you want excluded, and press Shift-Command-Option-E (PC: Shift-Ctrl-Alt-E). A new layer will be created at the top containing a merged copy of all the visible layers.

Another option is to create a new layer at the top of the stack and make it active. Command-click (PC: Ctrl-click) each layer you want to include to make those layers active, as well. Press Option-Command-E (PC: Alt-Ctrl-E).
