In Charlotte Today…

 

Today I am in lovely Charlotte, NC to present the Down & Dirty Tour. For those of you that are signed up to attend, I hope you are looking forward to a great day of tips and techniques because you will want to try these out the second you get home. It’s going to be a lot of fun and hopefully a bit educational or is it maybe very educational and little fun. Either way you are bound to get something out of it. For those of you that are not in the Charlotte area, be sure to check out the Kelby Training Live site for upcoming dates. Between Jack Davis and myself we are bound to get close to where you are soon. Until then, keep experimenting and have fun!!!

    Corey,

    we miss you here, at the Planet Photoshop tutorial site! I am one of those lurkers, watching your tutorials every week, and never really saying thanks to you. BUT – here it comes: Thank you for the ease and talent with which you share your vast knowledge – always a pleasure to listen and learn.
    So now you know why we missed you this week!

    I had a blast in Charlotte. I came away with some great ideas for future projects using Photoshop. I really hope there will be more frequent events for all of the Adobe products in this area…a drive to Charlotte, Raleigh, or other cities would be more than worth the commute.

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).
